She's not providing value beyond introducing customers to chefs and making a margin for her efforts.

What the girl doesn't seem to understand is that her job is to alleviate the stress of finding a good chef with a great repertoire. That's what she's literally being paid for, and once customers have met a chef they like, she adds no further value to that customer except the chef is unable to meet further requirements.

It's much easier and simpler after introductions to cut out the middleman and split the difference - Chef gets paid more, Customer pays less. They both win.

The problem is her business model not the customers. The pool of customers that can afford and are inclined to hire private chefs in Nigeria is small, and customers willing to do that on a frequent basis is smaller still.

Meanwhile it seems like 1 in every 20 girls on Naija Instagram is a chef.

Her model instead should be charging the chefs a subscription fee for the right to bid for work for her clients whether they get it or not, and then she's making money of both sides for access to the network. If she continues to get customers approach her platform, chefs even if they poach a customer are still incentivised to return to bid for more work. It's still a brittle business model but at least she's providing a little more value either way.
You are nit wrong at all, in fact I always get amused when I see her talk about returning customers because I know a typical Nigerian will just use her service once and then poach her junior chefs (whom are the ones likely to do the most work sef).

I think the only reason she's crashing out is that she expected loyalty from the chefs especially the younger ones who learnt culinary skills under her before being promoted to chefs-for-hire

Nigerians are also part of the problem as a lot of us will try to undercut the guy by engaging his apprentice behind his back. some apprentice may get away with this and think they can do the guys job
This happens alot.

There's this lady I do watch her content on TikTok ; RENTACHEF. This lady is a private chef who created a business out of her job. She has chefs signed to her business whom you can rent and have them cook for you for a private dinner, private events and even as your home chef who would cook your daily meals and get paid for their services.

She makes content of her jobs along with her chefs at her various clients' private residences ( Ikoyi, Banana Island, Lekki, VI, VGC, etc). She gives a glimpse into the kind lifestyle some elites actually enjoy in this our Nigeria with their money.

Early this year I just saw her crashing out in a video she made about how her business suffered seriously last year. Some of the junior chefs she was putting on started taking jobs directly from her clients bypassing the company. This is a brand she has built ; a brand that has Admin staff, procurement staff and other employees that are not even involved in cooking. She runs a proper brand!......

When people probed her asking how did she find herself in such mess, some in the comments section even asked why she didn't have them sign "non-compete clause" and other legal documents that forbids them from taking jobs from her customers behind her.

She opened up that every year all her chefs and other staff members are made to sign those documents obut this is Nigeria. The moment you try to enforce some of those stuff legally, it will be termed as you being wicked and you start getting called out on social media.

She then concluded that it is the customers that are actually to blame most times. Customers always approach her employees behind her in a bid to get their services at a cheap price and those ones get tempted once they flash them cash.

He didn't deny how he has helped and favored. He says it is even hard work to get that opportunity.

That's the only story in recent times that has substance. These ones are looking for who to whine
Ubi Franklin said he has been in Seyi Vodi's shop for 2 hours and within that time frame he witnessed Vodi make N30m worth of sales. The weyrey wants to use that as defense for the $300,000 Lamba Vodi dropped grin

Ubi even claimed he bought N5m cloth in Vodi's shop. cheesy cheesy cheesy

I couldn't account for the total number of children sef
As in..... As much as their mother was always forming righteous anger anytime she sense any of the children going astray , it's obvious she's the cause of the whole problem.

She literally immersed those kids into generational poverty by giving birth to as many as they are. It is pretty obvious that for the family to ever have a chance of coming out of that generational poverty, one or two of them must get involved in very big crime that pays and not some petty crime sef.

This is Isale Eko (Lagos Island), no portable in big 2026. It took the efforts of an NGO to supply them water that would last them for days.

APC has been ruling Lagos since 1999. The oba of Lagos' son Kayode Akiolu represents Lagos Island constituency in Abuja under the APC umbrella.

If come 2027, you decide you've had enough of APC in the state as a citizen resident on Lagos Island ; you will be surprised the kind of persecution you will suffer for your choice.

The Ọba may threaten you and your choice of candidate with the lagoon as your finally resting place. In fact, political thugs and enforcers who are members of the same community will not allow you come near the polling unit once tbey are aware of your political choice. You would be wondering if these are not the same people that were complaining about portable water just few months ago. You would even be asking yourself what changed? Do we suddenly have water now that election is near? 🤦‍♂️

Gateway International Airport

grin grin grin grin

Our politicians no go kill person.
I don't even understand what they were thinking constructing that road, inspecting for commissioning and finally commissioning without anybody having a single brain cell to tell them what will happen to a road without drainage.

I mean if the contractor was foolish, didn't the Ogun ministry of works engineers inspect the road to see with their eyes that the road the contractor was working on doesn't have drainage?

The stewpid invited the president and other dignitaries to commission the airport last week with the road nit having drainage.

Don't they get embarrassed over situations like this one? Why can't they just do the right thing instead of shirty jobs like this all the times?

Later thew will be bragging about the state's GDP with the terrible road networks all over the whole place. This road wey dem fix, dem still no fit do it right.

Dapo Abiodun is just useless! 🤯

How can you construct a road in 2026 without drainage? Like how useless can that man be? 🤦‍♂️

Days after commissioning the gateway airport, the road that leads to the airport is flooded. Nature didn't even wait for long before exposing the fraud.

Probably the boy doesn't have parents who take their parenting job serious. Anyways, the boy may rig himself out of future opportunities by adding to his age over something as trivial as opening a bank account.

You cannot open an opay account without BVN and NIN, this is the first step.

Your friend son falsified his age so that he can open it.
Does that mean the NIN the boy carries overstates his age as being above 18?

There is a limit. 50k,100k,500k I think. Based on tier.

My son recently upgraded his account

It also does not imho have proper regulation

You cannot open an account if you are not an adult. But I know a friend of my son (17 years of age) who did just that
As much as the disruption those Fintechs achieved is appreciated, there's serious job that needs to be done about proper regulations of Fintechs in this country.

this is at once funny and also frightening

because it means any stranger can guess your opay account and send you money

not a problem until i want to setup blueraydick with his company ICA dept
Are you saying they set him up ?

Are you saying they he didn't register an Opay account by himself as a private citizen long before his appointment as INEC chairman?

By the way, I don't have an Opay account or any of these fintech financial services account that uses phone number as account number. I've never liked the idea for the security threats such situation poses.

Funny how Iran's demand majorly focuses on its own survival and nothing to do with creation of a Palestine state.

Sooner or later, we will all learn lessons from the Jews.

Prior to October 7 Iran was living fine, they were comfortable enough to be using proceeds of their oil sales to fund terrorist organizations like Hezbollah, Hamas and co to attack their life long sworn enemies; Israel. The IRGC was in full control in the Persian state and had enough time on their hands to be pursuing the destruction of state of Israel 24/7.

Fast forward to October 7 when the Hamas terrorists struck, the Jews felt they've had enough and decided to go all out to decimate the Hamas and Hezbollah terrorists. After months of speaking with the terrorist groups in the language they understood, the Jews proceeded on the 12 days war to pummel the mother of the terrorist states ; Iran.

They didn't end it there; they followed it up with this recent war that has seen the death of almost all senior IRGC men (including their so-called Supreme leader). They attacked their economic and military infrastructures to the extent that they are gasping for breath economically. They've literally left them with years of rebuild to be done for their military and economic infrastructures.

Even their talking point for the cease fire negotiations shows they just want to survive. One would've thought they will add the creation of state of Palestine as one of their demands since the reason they always give for sponsoring terror against Israel is to force creation of the Palestinian state .

I think one lesson that stands out here is that your distant enemy is only having time to equip your closest enemy because you have not given them enough body hitting to keep them busy.

Oga, u are still salty about the posts I made agreeing with Timbros and Unlimited that Chelsea has defensive problem with bunch of mediocres you guys parade as defenders...

The post was made last season and early this season.

That's the only reason you would wait for arsenal to their lose or draw and be asking me about Arsenal's defensive solidity.

I alsrwadh answered you that my post back then remains valid. As of today arsenal has conceded the least number of goals in the EPL after 32 games. If you don't have any evidence that suggest otherwise, just drink water and rest.

Normally I no supposed respond to your initial post, but sometimes one needs to set the records straight..

He isn't talking about since the beginning of the season but your recent form. 6 goals conceded in your last 4 games and conceding twice each to Bournemouth and Southampton. Even you can't deny alarm bells are ringing with how teams now easily create chances against you especially when that department was your strongest.
I made comment about Chelsea's defensive problem juxtaposed with Arsenal's last season/towards the beginning of the new season.

Look for something else to use as defense for him.

There has been a news release that he does not own any Twitter account
The evidence is everywhere on the internet. Even some APC members have admitted Amupitan Don shiiit for church.

There's no spinning that can make this go away. He was an APC and Tinubu stan before his appointment.

He either does the honorable thing of stepping down or continue as INEC chair with the blemish on his name that he's obviously partisan. Nobody will beat him whatever decision he takes.

Please what happened to the defensive problem that Arteta solved?
As of this moment arsenal still remains the team that has conceded the least goal in the league this season. So technically arsenal doesn't have a defensive problem.

If you dey watch matches you would know this.


You don't even know how to troll at all. 😏
