Good day all.

This may shock you but it is very true. It happened on Saturday, 12th Aug. My neighbour bought a bottle of groundnut oil from the market. It was not any of the brand names in the groundnut oil business. It was also cheaper. He fried some potato that Saturday morning using his hotplate. When he was done frying, he put off the hotplate and he left the frying pan on the it. He left for work.

On coming back,he discovered that something that shocked him. The supposed groundnut oil had turned into a thick black paste (something like coal tar). The hotplate hit the oil to the extent that the other chemical escaped and then, the thick black paste was left behind.

My people, the picture below is the what many of us consume everyday as groundnut. When it settles in our bodies, this is what they form. It is dangerous and deadly.

Avoid buying groundnut oil without a brand name.

Avoid groundnut oil that has very bad odour. It is probably a fake one and can kill.

Inform your loved ones. Stay safe!

Although it is true that something must kill a man but

Life is Eazi.
I know it is you but since you claim it's your neighbor,

I'd advice you to buy good registered Vegetable Oil brands and stop buying cheap oil.
It's tough to survive in Naija so everyone is cutting corners.

Gain must be made.

Ok.

Ha! The heart of man is desperately wicked. All in the name of making money. Imagine the hazards this thing will cause to a consumer's body.

How can this be true? So. Are you saying that using the "fake" oil by other people frequently wouldn't turn it to this? Internet and loads of sh*t

All these OPs sef! When will your narratives stop being your neighbours and start being you?
Mek una stop ds petty lies oo.

How can a hot plate that has been put off heat oil to this extent






I SMELL LIES

Aaaaaayeeeee OOoooooooo!!!!!!!

Aye ma nika o......

This is very silly reporting and shouldn't have made the front page if not for the fact that Nairaland is not more interested in making money from sensationalism than publishing actual event.

My issues:

First, the name of the evil brand wasn't stated to prevent others from using said brand (so what is the use?)

Second, why is there no pic of the bad oil on the actual pan used as reported instead of showing us something on waterproof.

Third, who cooks with an executive chair in his kitchen?

My advice:

Delete this stupid thread and save whatever credibility you have left for your next snake thread.

power oil, you people are lying!!!

I personally don't subscribe to the use of groundnut oil for frying.
The use of anointing oil is far better.

A bottle of Goya olive oil prayed over by my pastor does the job better.

It fries the potatoes and any demon around it beautifully without leaving ugly traces behind like this one.

Greed

Power oil or grand oil

They are cheap and affordable

All those measure measure groundnut oil ain't safe

so you took this stuff to your work place. menh you get time o0.
