'Any man who must say, "I am the King prize", is no true king prize.'

And that's on period.

Go to the hospital to seek for medical intervention please.

Nawa for oyibo oh. So because he worked while on leave, he has committed an offence. He also worked at night when he was supposed to be resting, how is that una problem? Is it your body?

Proof that Nigerians really need IELTS exams because comprehension is a huge challenge here.

LINSAR:
This your comment no follow at all. I replied you because I felt you misunderstood him, and also to get your perspective as a woman.

But it’s not your fault. If God didn’t create me that way, I wouldn’t be here washing my dirty linen in public.

The reason I stated the low self esteem issue is because in 2022, you also created a thread talking about your inability to swim due to your manhood size.

In 2025, you're still talking about it.

LINSAR:
He suggested a virgin because she might be easier to satisfy since she hasn’t received anyone before, let alone a big one.
It’s not about esteem but the ability to satisfy.

Lol and I wonder why you the Op is coming to his defense.

Anyways, nice story. You're coming up well.

Ishilove:
We shall ask the ones advising him to marry a virgin if they are virgins themselves. Virgins for virgins. Chaste for chaste. If you have polluted yourself sleeping with different women then you have no right to seek a virgin.

I know right.

My own issue with the guy is him thinking marrying a virgin automatically solves his low-self esteem. It is indeed hilarious.

DrAda:
It's terrible.

You can say that again.

DrAda:
So much misinformation in one post. SMH

I'm telling you. He's not even a medical doctor.

Hayaoga1:
Just marry a v.irgin, that's all

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

This is the funniest sh1t ever.

pocohantas:
Lol! Anyone wey you do, they must attack o.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I dey tell you oh. Make we go marry yam now.

pocohantas:
You guys are still insulting this one that said she cannot marry old man?

I give up!!

Na mumu dey follow their mouth.

The freshness matters since it is tied to the taste. Also, because you are in Lagos. If it were in Port-harcourt or Owerri, I wouldn't have mentioned it. The fresher the leaves, the tastier the soup. It is like eating a freshly prepared soup compared to a one week's one-week-old soup. She must have cooked it well. But because of home ties and my experience in camp then (the woman deceived me with her origin), I want to know where the cook comes from and has lived for a considerable period.


Editan is fantastic! Hopefully, a great cook does it for a first-timer like you. But it is way better than Afang due to health reasons. Takes long and is expensive, yes, but better overall.

Chai! I miss home o


Absolutely nothing appetising about sushi! Again, for first timers, I can understand. But it is just there, aka, bland, bland and bland. Well, after my culinary experiences, I am open to anything these days. The stomach has adjusted.


Yes, weight loss when eating Japanese meals happens alongside using the trains (climbing staircases and all), walking down the street etc. Interestingly, our women still have those lovely big yanshes. This thing is obviously genetic, else the backside should have slimmed down. But overall, you lose weight by eating Japanese dishes and doing things like them.

No idea about South Korean dishes, as I don't come across them often like the Chinese.


Na my friends carry me go one of those Indian restaurants and I fell in love with their dishes.

E say na the woman deceived me with her origin. Too funny.😂😂😂😂

Yeah, she cooked it well.

I love tasty and healthy soups and miss home too.

Anyways, I'm sincerely praying that my stomach adjusts well cos mehnnnn the restrictions.

Big yansh is in our genes, e nor fit really comot.

Oh that's really lovely to hear. I hope to try out their dishes some day.

pocohantas:
Edikan ikong is ugu + waterleaf.
Editan leaves are different. I don't know the name in English. But all their soups manage to look alike on the surface. Maybe because it is mostly the combination of two greens.

You can get fresh afang in major markets and if you see fresh one, you go know. Unfresh one dey take style bitter. There is à Friday market I get them. Women come with fresh farm produce to one bush market and my afang seller buys on Thursday evening to resell because they sell off quickly on Friday. If I miss it, I have to wait for another Friday. If I am lucky, I can see remainder on Saturday morning. 😂

No wonder, I didn't like the soup then. I'm not a big fan of water leaf. I don't even like water leaf soup.

So how 9-5ers like us wan see fresh afang leaf buy? When market days for veggies na Friday.

Oh chim!

pocohantas:
58 is more like it and to an 18yo girl.😘

Yes, that's more like it.

50 is a great age. After all, men age like fine wine.

imiski:
...

Oby Ezekwesili is not ugly.

Gerrard59:
Then, I look forward to eating it.


Afang is delicious! No doubts about it. But there is another soup known as Editan, which is not as sweet as Afang, but healthier and medicinal. The cooking process is more tedious and longer than Afang. The price too is higher. For an inexplicable reason, I don't like eating Edikanikong after the day it has been prepared. Since you just got started with the soup, continue that way until you get used to it because the freshness of the Afang leaves is important, and I insist the cook's origin matters, to me at least.


Smells bad, but I ate it without issues. Sushi is just there. To me, nothing appetising about it. I understand the craving by those who haven't eaten it or lovers of anything Japanese who have never visited the country. But it is just there. A sushi restaurant was the first place I was taken to by the lab's secretary and a fellow student after I arrived in the city. To me, it seems the Chinese have better dishes (especially as a West African) compared to the Japanese, and they are easy to prepare. I have met a fellow Nigerian who has been here for almost a decade and does not know how to prepare Japanese meals because they are too tiny in portions (I agree wholeheartedly). Japanese dishes are good for weight loss.

It is actually good to try a dish at every given opportunity. I have eaten curry rice and vowed never to continue because it is just there. Rice and any of our soups are better. I look forward to eating Durian (a fruit), which smells bad. Interestingly, Mainland Chinese love it even though their cousins in Southeast Asia don't like it. I love Indian dishes.

Nice one!

Yeah, the afang Poco cooked was really nice. Maybe this is a sign for pocohantas to give me again so my taste bud doesn't lose the soup's memory.

What's special in using fresh afang leaves? And why does the cook's origin matter? I don't think it follows oh. Lol.

I've been hearing of this Editan soup but haven't eaten it yet. I can't remember how Edikanikong soup taste, I ate it as a child and really didn't like it.

Lol so nothing special about sushi? Wahalur.
It seems your stomach isn't sensitive, it must be nice. I have a sensitive stomach and I admire people that eat any/everything.

I've heard that Japanese meals ate idea for weight loss. Do you like South Korean cuisine?
I know a handful of them through watching their movies like Gimbap, Kimchi, Tteokbokki, Naengmyeon and Jajangmyeon.

I don't know much of Indian meals except Roti and Biryani, I think.

Gerrard59:
Thanks for the correction, as it has been modified. I was right to have added the question. I have eaten Banga from Delta, but I guess I have to eat it again to truly know the difference from its Akwa/Cross version.

Before now, trying dishes I was not brought up with was hard, but after eating Asian dishes, I am open to anything and everything. During my welcome party, I ate natto (fermented Japanese beans that has an unpleasant smell) and my prof was shocked.

So, henceforth, anything goes.

Lol no wahala.

Black soup is really nice and medicinal. Asides eba, I use it to eat rice or yam. Anytime I travel and visit home, my mum welcomes me with Black soup or Banga soup. They're my top favourite soups.

Generally, I'm not adventurous with food and quite a picky eater. I ate afang soup last year courtesy of Poco sending to me, I was skeptical of eating it but it was really nice. Since then, I've not eaten it because if I try a restaurant and it's not at par to what I tasted previously, I might dislike it. I have a very weird taste bud.

Fermented beans? Wowww. I could never. How about sushi? I can't wrap my head around eating raw fish.

pocohantas:
She is crashing out badly and she still dey the initial stage. Abeg help us advise her as a defense counsel. Someone needs to take her phone.

She is indeed crashing out badly. It's quite sad that the family doesn't have at least ONE respected elderly person that can mediate on the matter.

Lol maybe she dey find sho sho media pity.

Gerrard59:
I come across this news against my will.

My IG feed is full of music, women's quotes, clothes, animated movies.

Na NL front page dey give me all these irrelevant gists.

Gerrard59:
Black soup by Urhobo (am I correct that they "own" this soup?).

I ate Tuwo when I camped and went out to eat Amala at Amala Sky (that place still dey exist?) when I was in IB.

I look forward to trying more northern dishes.

Gerrard, quick modify your post make I nor blow your head with my gun.

Black soup is for Edo folks. Banga is for Delta region.

Gerrard59:
lol

When I saw the post on IG, I uttered, "This girl is stu*pd! Who asked you all this"

Oh you even follow the gists on IG? I don't have that energy. I'm tired of seeing her gists splattered on NL's front page. At this point, I'm irritated!

pocohantas:
😂😂😂😂😂😂

I'm tired tbh. The whole gist is messy and already run out of spicy ingredients.

Wrap it up already, Gina.

Ugh!
