My friend said he got this chicken for about 8k. This is the chicken after it has been dressed. They are actually bigger than they appear in the pictures below.



Attached below are pictures of the chicken;

Pics 1 and 2: In a pot.

Pics 3: In a plastic

Pics 4: Spread out on a bag.

Pics 5-7: Some of them, after they've been fried. They were so tasty and delicious.

Pics: There were potatoes laying around, so I decided to make some chips out of some.
This is what you get when you have Fadila in your kitchen. I can create things in here ( the kitchen). I can turn nothing into something here. The kitchen is one of my favorite places in a house. I make things happen here. And I'm not kidding. A trial will convince you.

Pics 8-10: The chicken and chips. So so tasty, crunchy sweet and delicious.

Anthony Joshua Beats Otto Wallin as Deontay Wilder is Outboxed by Joseph Parker.

In the lead-up to his ring entrance in Saudi Arabia, Anthony Joshua's aspirations for a lucrative clash with Deontay Wilder faced a setback when Wilder suffered a clear defeat to Joseph Parker. In contrast, Joshua showcased a strategic approach, dominating Otto Wallin for five rounds until Wallin's corner halted the bout.

The highly anticipated "Day of Reckoning" card featured Joshua and Wilder as co-headliners, initially geared towards setting up a two-fight series between them in 2024. Despite Wilder's recent defeat, Joshua heads into the new year with significant momentum, eager to achieve remarkable feats.

Wallin struggled to find his footing in the match, encountering difficulty in overcoming Joshua's jab and powerful right hand. Joshua, commendably reverting to his more aggressive style from past years, consistently pushed Wallin onto the defensive.

In the pivotal fifth round, Joshua landed a formidable right hand followed by a left hook, causing Wallin to stagger. While Joshua attempted to capitalize on the moment for a stoppage, Wallin managed to survive until the bell.

Notably, Joshua expressed disinterest in Wilder's loss post-fight, emphasizing his self-focus and the importance of his own performance. Despite the setback, Joshua refrained from dismissing a potential 2024 bout with Wilder, considering the busy schedules of Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.

Addressing the possibility of a Wilder match in the future, Joshua drew parallels to Daniel Dubois' comeback, highlighting the potential for redemption. Joshua's composed stance reflects a willingness to entertain the possibility of a future encounter, acknowledging the enduring interest in such high-profile matchups.


In reaction to Anthony Joshua's excellent performance defeating Otto, Eddie Heaven says: "GIVE ME TYSON FURY NOW, PLEASE. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY TYSON FURY BEATS ANTHONY JOSHUA.”

That's your enemy right there, not a friend. A friend that could keep such secret from you even when you've been nice to him not worthy to be call a friend. The same thing happened to me a year ago, imagine my close friend travelled outta country without letting me know. We even went to bar a day before he travelled. A friend of about 17years. Common.

Peter532:
I don't know if I should be angry or just smile and take it as it is. This is someone that I fed, I clothed despite us being closed friends since we were kids. He knows everything about me that my parents don't even know till dates..We could go to a gathering together and I will be the one ordering and paying for everything we bought even recently because I always acted like the big bro and he accepted I guess .. Just last week I saw it on his status about is house opening invite. I later got a dm from him that same evening telling me about it that I should come through.

It came as a surprise I admit, even though I know he was doing quite well for himself. I know some will call it entitlement mentality but since I considered we were close like a brother we even ate from same plate last 2weeks, I thought I should have known atleast.

Note: I noticed so many people will come in here to call me names, even some accusing me to be someone with bad motives and sort I smile. Not everyone has a evil mindset like you or some persons you know, It's just that when you expect so much from people you hold very close to your heart you might get disappointed and it hurts badly.

Especially when you know you can't do that same thing to that person. I only brought it out here because I wanted to know maybe I'm overreacting because I feel a deep level of betrayal but hey I am happy for him and I will attend the house opening tomorrow.

Toke Makinwa Tells Ladies How To Meet Wealthy Men In Lagos

Renowned Nigerian media personality and actress, Toke Makinwa, has offered some advice to Nigerian ladies on how to meet wealthy men in Lagos, sharing the insights in a recent episode of her YouTube show, “Toke Moments.”

Toke Makinwa decided to share this information following some online criticism she faced for being part of the Tinubu delegates list to COPA 28 from Nigeria to Dubai.


In the video, Toke advises ladies to reconsider going to clubs if they aim to meet affluent men this Christmas. She emphasizes that nightclubs are not ideal, pointing out the chaotic and distracting environment where it’s challenging to distinguish influential individuals.


Toke Makinwa supports her stance by noting the hot and noisy atmosphere of clubs during the festive season. Instead, she suggests that the prime place to encounter wealthy men in Lagos this Christmas is at house parties. To seize this opportunity, she encourages ladies to have the budget for it and to connect with people who have access to these exclusive events.


Expanding on her advice, Toke Makinwa specifically recommends attending house parties in upscale areas such as Banana Island, Ikoyi, Victoria Island, and Lekki Phase 1. She firmly asserts that anywhere outside Lekki is no longer considered Lagos, and ladies should focus their efforts on these prime locations.


In conclusion, Toke Makinwa reaffirms her advice, emphasizing that the real opportunities to meet affluent individuals unfold at house parties.

A post shared by Intel Region (@intelregion)
Is this behavior expected from someone who accompanied the president to the COPA 28 in Dubai? Or is it simply a reflection of her workplace atmosphere where discussions cover diverse topics, regardless of their nature?

Dear Nairalanders and Advertisers.

Nairaland's server was taken down by our host's abuse team because of an abuse report that wasn't attended to on time.

After rectifying the error, we brought the server back for a few minutes, but they decided to take the server down again. Since then, we haven't heard from the abuse team, yet the support team keeps insisting that only the abuse team can help us.

So we had to transfer Nairaland to a temporary host in order to bring it back to you. A VERY time-consuming process. We are not fully back, even though most features of the site are working. We still have a long way to go. Additional downtime is likely; don't let it alarm you.

There's a lot more to say, but I have to go back to work to ensure that our return is permanent. Please forgive us for the stress we caused. We appreciate the love and support that you showed us during the ordeal. Nairaland is too important for us to let this happen again.

Best Regards,
Seun Osewa.

Seun:

He was confronted by youths in the community after the video of him beating a woman believed to be his mother went viral. They asked him if the video was doctored and he admitted he's the one in the video and it wasn't doctored.

He acknowledged he did wrong and asked for forgiveness.

However, the youths made him have a taste of his medicine. They tied his hands and feet to a tree and flogged him too
