The chapter chairman, Pious Aminu who was represented by the secretary, Musa Akin, said egg remains important ingredient of nutrition that Nigerians can not afford to neglect.

The day is set apart by the global community to celebrate the power of the egg with this year’s theme, “Eggs for a Better Life’ which celebrates the incredible egg’s power to support  human health outcomes.
