Maltina Flags Off Nationwide School Tour

Maltina has launched a nationwide Nourishment Tour – a bold initiative to nourish one million young minds across the country.

The first phase of the Tour kicked off on 9th February, 2026, with schools in Lagos, and will subsequently extend nationally.

The Maltina Nourishment Tour was created to highlight the crucial role proper nutrition plays in helping children stay confident, creative, and actively engaged in learning.

The tour features hands-on science experiments, facilitated in partnership with STEM Africa Fest, showing the
students how everyday nutrition supports their growth, creative thinking and energy, for their everyday activities. In addition, students will be given bottles of Maltina, now available in convenient 25cl and 50cl PET bottles, which fit easily into school bags and daily routines.

The second phase of the tour commenced on the 9th of March, 2026, at Government Comprehensive Junior College, Agege, Ikeja Senior Grammar School, Oshodi, Surulere, Junior Secondary School, and United Missionary Comprehensive College, Molete, Ibadan, the alma mater of beloved Maltina ambassador and media personality Oluwabukunmi Adeaga-Ilori, popularly known as Kiekie. Maltina joined forces with Kiekie to return to her alma mater with a mission to reinforce healthy nutrition habits among students.

The students engaged in interactive science experiments demonstrating how nutrients from food and beverages like Maltina are released and used to fuel the body.

Speaking on the vision behind Nourishment Tour, Elohor Olumide-Awe, Portfolio Manager, NonAlcoholic Drinks, Nigerian Breweries Plc, said, “The Maltina Nourishment Tour is part of Maltina’s 50th year anniversary initiatives and it goes beyond school visits; it is about building meaningful connections with schools and communities across Nigeria while helping students understand the important link between nourishment and learning. As a nourishing malt drink enriched with Vitamins A, B, C and Calcium, Maltina supports the energy and focus students need to grow and thrive.”

“Through the Nourishment Tour, we are bringing science to life and helping students see how what they consume fuels curiosity, thinking, and active learning. This initiative reflects Maltina’s long-standing commitment to nourishing young minds, with a clear plan to spark interest in science and continue to create meaningful impact across schools and communities for years to come,”Elohor Olumide-Awe said.
