The Director-General, National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, Dr. Paul Orhii, spoke at a stakeholders’ forum organised by the Small and Medium Scale Enterprise Group of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Lagos on Wednesday. This is what he had to say about consumption of bottled water in Nigeria.

Water consumption amounts to N8bn per day in Nigeria, that is, talking about bottled water only, not taking into consideration other uses and with a population of about 160 million people; it is a very good business. Everybody will want to get into it and so there is a need for training.
