Task force should allow these people to do their business in peace undecided

note she isn't selling the food, she gives them out to people after cooking probably she's cooking outside so people can see how everything was done from start to finish so people won't start saying all sorts of things that she's using their destiny. Hopefully if she gets a permit all these harassment would stop because she's also helping out the little way she can.

She could have diverterd part of the money she used in buying that Lexus SUV into getting a mobile kitchen. She could have gotten a permit for a side of the road.

Cooking on the median (in the center) of a busy road is preposterous. 😩

She should have taken permission from the LG Chairman or commissioner for environment better still from the governor before cooking in a public space.

Besides, can't she cooks from her house and share it to the targeted vulnerable in the area as she claimed.

Had thought of this too. It's somehow risky as vehicles with petrol are plying the road n an explosion could occur. You can just ask of space in a compound. Sorry about that
So Dem no dey sell akara for your area? grin grin grin

You can't cook on the street, don't be a clown... Nigerians are so entitled, you are doing something wrong and should be fined. You are encouraging begging, we don't need beggars on the street of Lekki. Clowns everywhere.

Content Creator 😂😂😂😂😂

I've been wondering why they've not done this since.

You're cooking on the road where all sorts of vehicular pollution happens, plus street ooze. And then feed people those unhealthy meals exposed to all sorts of environmental pollution.

This lady should be checked in a psychiatric hospital and subjected to community service afterwards.
Pollution aside, she is putting a lot of lives and properties at risk with this humanitarian works she claims to be doing. She sets up her cooking apparatus right in the median of the road with all sorts of vehicles speeding past on both sides. Some drivers slow down to see what's going on and you know what happens when drivers slow down for the slightest fraction of a minute in Lagos, traffic builds up. If you watch her videos, you would see drivers looking away from their driving to hail her, people crossing the road to greet her and collect pieces of meat or fish. I watched just one of her videos to conclude that the whole set-up looked dangerous to lives and properties. Lagos taskforce made the right call by putting a stop to it. Before you know it, other content creators will start setting up their gas burners in the middle of the road in the name of humanitarian services.

One already did in Aba.
They want a better Nigeria while acting like bonobos in Congolese jungle.

See her mouth. "Yenyenyen, someone should go live". Because you are cooking for charity, you can as well set fire on Aso Rock.

What happened to the streets of your village, attention seeker??

And why must you cook on the street??

No indoor building can contain the cooking??

Did you took permission or is the street yours??

Go and cook on the streets of your village.

Stop constituting nuisance in the name of cooking or content

Kudos to the KAI officials
Abi oooo
Why she no go cook for Bogije, Lakowe, Badore, Ajah, Ajangbadi, Igbo Elerin, Abule Egba, and other areas of same class if it is not for clout chasing and media hypes.

Sorry about that
?
Road is meant for transportation not cooking
She should get a shop space if she wants to go into food business /charity
Re: Sarah Martins Harassed By Lagos Task Force For Cooking On The Street In Lekki by alizma: 8:27am On Oct 17, 2025
They have to return those things they took from her, the major concern should have been that of safety of vehicles and passerby which shouldn't warrant taken her items, considering that she is doing the cooking for free but relocating her to a safe place within the area.

Sorry dear, but you should have taken permission before cooking in a public space.

Take note of this next time
Sentiments aside, this is what she should have done and the proper way of doing things.

she should cook at home and bring it out to share?
The party food wey you dey eat na your house you for cook am?

Re: Sarah Martins Harassed By Lagos Task Force For Cooking On The Street In Lekki by Jozilinn: 8:52am On Oct 17, 2025
I'm not against her cooking but why in the street I have watch a video where she had to pour meat water on the road,that's not hygienic she can get a place for herself and cook it mustn't be on the road.

She can still cook from home and bring for them,I pray she gets well soon but why she come dey cry for camera.

We can help without using cameras she is already well known, I'm sure she will get a place if she really wants to do this work she will. Lagos state wouldn't mind helping her out with that if she really wants it.

So the public space is not for the public anymorehuh They've gone to devour the food hungry and wicked so called taskforce.
You self listen to what you wrote does it sounds well to you, cooking in a public place, no permit and is it even hygienic ? She can cook from her house and go out to share it to the needy. When you see the truth say the truth.

Lol no be only go live. Charity that comes with risking your life and that of hundreds of others on the streets, we don't want abeg😩

@bolded. I knew it was only a matter of time before other content creators start copying, talk about doing the right thing in a very wrong way. Does she not realise all that distraction she's causing can cause multi-vehicle accident? How no one told her this is a very bad idea is mind boggling.

People told her. If you read comment section of her videos, you will see people warning her. I saw engineers warn her. But her fans would come for you. Even till now, they are supporting her and claiming Tinubu hates anyone that wants to alleviate the masses. Peak delusion.
Re: Sarah Martins Harassed By Lagos Task Force For Cooking On The Street In Lekki by oalandAgents2: 9:33am On Oct 17, 2025
So she should do all the cooking at home inviting all the dozens of helpers into her home and kitchen?
Then do you want her to hire buses to find all members of the public to bring to her home to get food served to them?

Your suggestion is not practical abeg!

Must you cook on the road? Why not prepare the food from home and bring it to them? undecided

All these attention seekers sef.





She did the right thing with the wrong approach.
