This is why i don't go close to people no matter the pressure

Same here. Aside my siblings nothing you do I won't go close to you am ok with casual greetings.

Well, everyone has their style of making jollof rice.
There's no party jollof rice without tomato paste.

Jollof rice might not have originated from Togo, but they made it popular in Nigeria.
The recipe we know today as "party jollof" came from them.

Everyone has their own way of making it, am simply redirecting the wrong notion of achieving authentic red jollf without tomato paste.

If you cater for health conscious Nigerians they won't even allow you to use tomato paste because of its unhealthy content so you will have to learn how to achieve it without paste.

The origin of jollof or party jollof is controversial but Nigerians have the credit of making it popular.

Enjoy your day.

The way you people argue blindly sha who told you they don't use tomato paste in party jollof?my mother is a caterer and I also did catering services even spicity jollof spices gives the rice dark colour also use only fresh pepper and tomatoes without tin tomatoes and some spices if the rice won't look pale !!

only the tin tomatoes won't be that much.

I don't argue. I engage in conversation and i do so with only with sane personality.

Mariangeles:
Even with tatase and sombo, you still have to use tomato paste for party jollof rice, for that deep red colour.
Even the Togolese use it.

That na wash.

If you want deep red:
Boil the pepper mixture dry before using it as sauce.
Don't add curry to anything in the sauce and rice, use curry only while boiling the meat.

One of the secret of food coloring is curry. Knowing when to add it and where not to add it. If you want deep brown or Golden brown jollof you can get it by tunning the color with curry.

That's how we have been getting our party red without paste or tin, i haven't use tin or paste for like 10 years in jollof.

Jollof didn't originate from Togo and it's a controversial dish so every country has adapted different ways of preparing it.

Mariangeles:
When you cook "jollof" rice with mostly fresh tomatoes and peppers, it'll look pale.

If you want it deep red, you have to use tomato paste.

It all depends on the taste you're going for.

They don't use tomato paste or any of it's kind in party jollof, it's a wrong method of preparing it.

If one knows his way around it whatever shade of red is gotten without tomato paste or tin tomatoes.

Owoh soup and starch: well garnished with fresh beef, dry fish, snails, periwinkles and assorted.

Soft fufu and sea food okra soup.




Swallow is life!

Desert Warrior (2025).

This reverse masterpiece! 🤎.

There are bad films but this was quite the discovery, like i have never seen a film so determined to be bad, doesn't even give itself any ounce of chance at redemption, just straight up bad.

I couldn't even tell you the plot without sounding like a nutcase. A king (appeared in just one scene btw) is bent on collecting concubines from all tribes in his domain, but one princess refused to be a concubine, and without prior experience at war, raise an army, recruits a bandit, to go against said concubine loving King.

Saudi Arabia make so much buck that they could literally burn money on vanity projects, like they have been doing with Sports in the last few years. Now they have ventured into movies, and apparently this is the most expensive movie ever made in their film industry history but you could never tell. The only person that looked like, he had stepped into a film school or ever touched a script was Anthony Mackie, was wondering why he is even in this, then i figured out, the bag must be really heavy and might be down bad.

When a broad is a definite 3/10, like your are convinced, all the signs are there...but you just have to "taste it out" for yourself and warn your Gees in the Hood...this is exactly my thoughts with this flick

Never...never....recommend!

You try self, I didn't even bother to rate it. Total foolishness and waste of my brain cells.

Caaz:
I love it eaten raw...than the fried ones.husby got about 8 sticks for me yesterday at Anambra state.



It was delicious.....I use to eat them when I was at warri those years.

Raw! Abeg o.

Caaz:
Edible worms yummy

It's like we are in the season. I ate some earlier this month at the west it was heavenly especially since it's been ages I ate it.

Kudos to them, but I pass. I am not a fan of such storylines.

TheStoriesOfMan:
This is the same issue in Oman too. 2014. Na so them change salary and payment agreement details overnight. Forced at gunpoint to hand over passports. Luckily, I gave them a fake one. Na so I bolt out of the country with help of sympathizers. Them use Interpol trace me come Warri. After explaining everything and showing substantial evidence to international popo, they left me but advised me never to go to any Arab country again. If not for my uncle wey be triple chief, I for spend 15 years for jail.

Anything Arab, count me out. Kafala system ain't a joke.

Anything Arab, run!

They even tracked you with Interpol down to warri untop salary that you rejected.

Rather than Releasing His Funds they resorts to Using the same Funds for their Business.This is Fraud and Threats to Life

How? The story is not adding up.

HacheNoire:
How many people believe Jesus? Subtract the Chinese, Indians and Jews!

In actual sense with regards to the population of Earth, people who believe Jesus are few.

Jackson was accepted across tribes, religion, ethnic groups, race and gender. His influence was one of a kind.

If you compare Jesus to Jackson then forget your salvation wether you are a Christan or not.

Jesus na anybody mate? Make una dey get respect nor be everything be clout.

Kylekent59:
People who impacted into humans life and not musicians, okay?

Gen Z go think say Michael Jackson has no impact.

He his the god of:
Dance.
music.
concerts.

He freed the black musicians who were been exploited by their records label, one of the reason he was ganged up and killed.

He evolved modern day fashion.

His donation to charities even till now is unprecedented by any celebrity.

The number of children across the world he paid for their medical treatment is still unprecedented by human on earth.


Normally the people wey write the list without MJ on it are on colos.

Afobaba33:
All I see in this comment section is how humans have lost their humanity to hunger

What a shame


We truly diserve the kind of leaders we have


That uses hunger to control our emotions

I am not surprised what do you expect from a country where a 17 year old will use his mother to make money? Of 15 year old girl that sleeps with older men on purpose just to buy goodies?

It's not hunger, Nigerians are naturally greedy and self centered.

Same way someone killed him. No wonder I have never been moved by 2pac's murder.

Duplex90:
relax I assure its a network issue. I have sent money to someone and soon as I left it was reversed. I have his number so I went to green app to get it and send again. i repeat no one that u know his home address will deliberately scam you, why do thieves avoid light. every day I do a minimum of 30 transfers so I know am telling you. what you just did is dent that man's image.

How old are you in business?

Sonnobax15:
Bro I swear to God I almost created a thread on this yesterday. Exactly the same pains my younger brother and I went through back in 2022.

It depends because i know people that have been cashing out of it for years including my chicken vendor.

I also know of a guy who lost everything on it.

It's a risky 50/50 business.

Double0h7:
Can ask you (no offence intended), why is fish added to almost all Nigerian cuisine?

Fish is one of the best protein in the world and it's oil is the best natural oil so far.

Akalia:
As a child I hated Beans be it porridge or plain boiled beans but now I dey chop beans as an adult with delight.

Same here. I am looking for who I will send to the market to restock my beans.

I am personally surprised as how I got to love beans as an adult especially when prepared with enough crayfish and oil.

All except iru, the smell in the kitchen alone is unbearable.

My laptop just has refused to turn on while my desktop is showing lines on the screen. Be like say both of them don plan me.

abduleez1:
You're mixing the numbers up.
People thinking it wouldn't gross up to $100mn opening weekend that's those who are thinking about the domestic numbers, but worldwide it was surely surpassing $100mn with ease.

As for overall biopic, it's only the highest opening weekend for a biopic and not the highest grossing biopic of all time, at present.
That title still belongs to Bohemian Rhapsody with over $900mn worldwide.

Whether MICHAEL surpasses it or not, we'll know in the coming months.

They weren't expecting it to gross that amount worldwide in its opening weekend.

Your second paragraph it what I actually meant since it's still running. Whether it surpasses Bohemia biopics or not wouldn't really matter that much because it already have the record of the highest opening plus it's running very well which are very good pluses.

My joy is haters were disappointed.

abduleez1:
Yep, one of the reasons why the MICHAEL numbers wasn't looking out of this world to me. Just normal.

$200mn+ worldwide is a pretty good starter for any movie, but rarely a billion dollar play. And I know, every movie don't have to make the big digit to be considered a success. But somehow I was expecting probably more with the hype fans led with the movie— biggest superstar of all time.

For a biopic and with the negative review from wicked American critics we say it's a smash.

Haters didn't think it will gross up to 100m in it's first weekend but they were surprised.

So far it's the highest grossing biopic that's another reason to prove that he is the biggest super star of all time.

Saturnalia:
You do not know GTBank like I do. GTBank is the most fraudulent Bank in Nigeria.

I have 6 Bank Accounts and only GTBank sends me transaction notification 3 times of the same transaction on the same day - using it to deduct money from my account.

Let me rephrase in case you don’t understand. If you conduct a transaction with any Bank in Nigeria, you get (atleast from my own experience with Zenith, Access, Stanbic, Polaris & FCMB) just one “SMS & Email” notification, but it is only GTBank that will send you “3 SMS & 3 Emails notifications” for the same transaction just so that they can charge you humongous amounts of money as “SMS Charges” at the end of the month.

Even if you do a single transaction for entire month Zenith will send you only 1 alert and charge you #6 but at the end they will deduct #250 from your account and name it accrued sms charges for the month.

Their poor network and exploitative nature has made me to abandoned them. Even the last 1k I have with them I use 950 recharge.

Mirasteel:
Part 2 wasn't necessary, it was load of crap. I managed watching it to the end before deleting the movie on my phone.

Same with me. I watched twice and deleted I recognized only the part 1..
