This partnership is a natural fit as we work together to enrich the everyday dining experience and deepen our impact across homes in Nigeria,” he, said.

Ify’s voice brings relatability and authority, while our product represents the best in innovation, fortified with essential nutrients and crafted for exceptional taste and texture. Together, we’re promoting good food, good health, and a stronger food system”, he said.

Now, with Ify as our ambassador and the strong cultural affirmation seen at this event, we’re taking the brand to a new level, reaching more people and reinforcing our vision for a food-secure Nigeria.”
