As part of its 50th anniversary, Nigeria’s leading malt drink, Maltina, has unveiled its first-ever Ramadan Light-Up in Kano, illuminating the historic Kofa Nassarawa Emir Palace Road in a symbolic welcome to the holy month.

The landmark installation, held on Friday, February 20, transformed the ancient route into a glowing expression of unity, reflection, and renewal.

The evening began with The Shared Table, a communal Iftar gathering that brought guests together at sunset.

As fasts were broken and Maghrib prayers observed, the moment embodied the deeper meaning of Ramadan: intentional nourishment, gratitude, and kindness expressed through shared hospitality.

Maltina’s wholesome malt drink was served, reinforcing its place as a family-friendly companion at Iftar tables across Nigeria.

This was followed by the official switch-on in the presence of Maltina Company executives, government representatives, religious leaders, influencers, and members of the Islamic community.

Accompanied by Qur’anic recitations, the Light-Up set a calm and reflective tone for the season ahead.

The moment embodied the deeper meaning of Ramadan, nourishment, gratitude, and kindness expressed through shared hospitality.

Speaking at the event, Elohor Olumide-Awe, Portfolio Manager at Maltina Company, said: “Ramadan is a season of renewal, sharing, and reflection. For 50 years, Maltina has stood for nourishment, happiness and togetherness. This Light-Up reflects our belief that true nourishment lies not only in what we drink, but in the connections we build and the communities we strengthen.”
