Fresh Dairy pays 100-years plus old Mzee a courtesy visit on Valentine’s Day
Fresh Dairy yesterday excited Mzee Amoti Ebenezer Nyakabwa, who is aged 100 years plus with a surprise Valentines gifting that comprised a bouquet of flowers and an assortment of Fresh Dairy products that included Fresh Milk, Flavoured Milk, Long life milk, Butter and Yoghurt.
Nyakabwa profoundly remembers that way back, he used to enjoy Fresh Dairy’s Pyramid milk, which is popularly now known as TCA (Tetra Classic Aseptic) milk. He said that, he used to buy milk products for his children from Dairy Corporation which was the only producer of milk products in Uganda then.
Belonging to the Basumbi clan of Tooro kingdom, Nyakabwa said that they are the cattle people of Tooro with the obligation of making ghee for the King. His family members later requested to taste Fresh Dairy’s ghee, since they are the royal makers of ghee for the King of Tooro.
Nyakabwa further added that currently he loves Fresh Dairy’s strawberry yoghurt, which is his favourite flavour. He also noted that he never takes tea without milk.
Nyakabwa who played tennis till the age of 90 years said he was the first black African Administrator at Mulago hospital.
