I remember one afternoon back in uni when one of my friend rushed into my room shouting "Ebuka I know say u dey chop anything, Omo I hear say Semo no dey healthy"
Apparently his mum sent him a video on WhatsApp about the artificial residue in Semo
I replied ehn u donminit?
That's how he quickly brought his phone and showed me the video I was like wow 😱
Then I asked him a question
How many times have we eaten Semo this semester he was like Omo I no fit count oo then I asked him what did we take for dinner last night he said Semo
My guy face change
Then I told him guy if Semo wasn't healthy, with the rate at which we've eaten Semo this semester we suppose Don die cos Omo we dey chop Semo like 6 out of 7 days back then
He was like ehn we no know before but now wey we know make we stop abeg
Na so I burst into laughter 🤣🤣
Then I asked him what do you want us to do with the bag of Golden Penny Semovita we've bought he said he doesn't know ooo
Omo you better know ooo
We sha no fit waste am
You better stop this joke
I looked at my guy and I see he's really serious about this thing and I can't afford to waste my bag of Golden Penny Semovita that we've not even used up to half then I decided to take him out of his misery by educating him.
Bcos that Semo was vital to my survival when things red
I brought out my phone and quickly ran to Google for help, I showed him the benefits of the Golden Penny Semovita we've been eating
How rich it is in protein and d fact that it was made from wheat and it has no artificial additives
My guy was shocked but still wasn't convinced
I even went as far as telling him and showing him proof that Golden Penny Semovita has been duly certified by NAFDAC and the Standard Organization of Nigeria
I also pointed out that the packaging is airtight to help it retain its quality and freshness
He then replied "hhmmnn"
At this point I was beginning to give up then I told him see if you like don't believe me that's your own problem but the koko is that Golden Penny Semovita is very healthy and it's safe
I've done my part the choice is yours ✌🏾✌🏾
But I decided to give it my last shot then
I remembered my babe's signature egusi soup and I know how my guy loves that combo Semo and egusi
I picked my phone, dialed bae's number and put it on speaker, my babe said she was free I quickly sent her money to get what she needed
If you see the speed I used to get the kitchen ready before she gets here so it can help hasten the cooking
I asked my guy if he was going to eat he said he wasn't sure
That was when I knew my plan was working 🤣🤣
My babe got to my place I called her aside to explain what was happening, she laughed and said that means she'd take the remaining soup back to her place since it will be too much for me I said no problem just to make my guy rethink his decision.
My babe started cooking I was helping her with whatever she needed we practically did the cooking together
The aroma was tormenting my guy he was so restless 🤣🤣
In 30 minutes the food was ready
As I was bringing the food, the next thing my guy said shocked me 😱
He was like "guy this Semo no go do us ooo abi you no dey chop?"
I replied "guy I been think say Semo no dey healthy and e no dey safe?"
He said guy no worry about that one
I Don run go confirm the stuff wey u just tell me
Na so I for miss this food now bcos of wrong information
You need to see the speed my guy used to rush to the kitchen at that moment he could literally give Usain bolt a run for his money 🤣🤣
Omo I shock you go think say him Don dey do dry fasting for a month
In less than 5 minutes my guy was done eating 😲😲
After the meal as we were chatting I had this feeling of fulfilment that I was able to show someone the light and stop the disinformation about Golden Penny Semovita
There must be no semo slander around me
