Lagos Veg Feast

The Lagos Veg Feast--the first of its kind in Nigeria--is a Healthy Living Expo in Nigeria which ran from October 10 to 12 at the Freedom Park in Lagos Island as part of the World Veg Fest 2014 in Accra, Ghana by the International Vegetarian Union. It was an avenue to bring together people who dedicated their lives to a healthy, delicious and sustainable living. Around thirty booths were available for exhibitors to showcase their products and services.[5]
