Nigerian Girl, Arike Ade, Is Trending For Humourously Holding Her Own Against An Entitled Man
A Nigerian lady on Facebook, Arike Ade, took to the platform to tell how she dealt with an ungrateful friend who gave her a total sum of N3,ooo to help him prepare a pot of melon soup, popularly called egusi in Nigerian parlance and a separate pot of stew.
According to the lady, she had to add a thousand Naira extra when she got to the market, as the money he had given her would not suffice to make the soup and stew. She talked about laboring in his kitchen to prepare the meal with a kerosene stove despite been used to a faster and less stressful cooking using cooking gas.

According to her narration, her host was not very impressed by whatever she had going on and he came into the kitchen while she was cooking to query her about how much she bought each ingredient, including insinuating that he had not gotten value for his money.
She then thought to teach him a lesson which is the reason why her post has gone viral. Arike in her post said, she remained calm and finished cooking the soup and stew, then emptied each pot in separate covered bowls, and put them in a polythene bag.
She then went over to the entitled host’s room and handed him a cash refund of N3,500, the extra N500 according to her, was for his kitchen space which she used and his plastic bowls with which she took home the food she initially made for him.
Social media users have hailed Arike as a queen and praised her quick wit in putting the entitled man in his place.
Read her full account of the incident below:
Lemme give y’all one gist like that.
But before then, let me state something.
Before now, I use to have no reservations about going to help a guy cook.
Like, it used to be a normal thing for me.
But now ???.
Anyways, this dude asked me to help him cook Egusi soup and gave me 2k. Plus transportation.
When I was about leaving to the Market, he added 1k and said I should cook stew too..
I got to the market and ended up spending 4k plus tfare.
I used chicken and beef.
Now, guy had stove. And I am used to gas already. So the cooking was really stressful.
Next thing, guy came into the kitchen and started inspecting everything I bought.
And asking the price. Down to Maggi.
‘How much chicken? How much meat.? How much oil. How much groundnut oil.You didn’t price this meat well? Is this two cups of Egusi? Looks kinda small.
All these he said with a tone that suggested I probably was trying to cheat him.
On top my stress and extra one thousand I added.
Not like we are even that close like that or you’re even paying me.
I didn’t say anything o.
When I finished, I took plastic plates and packed the food inside. Both soup and stew. Put it inside nylon.
Went to the room and gave him 3500 and went home with the food.
The 500 extra was for his plates and kerosine and kitchen space I used.
Dude sent me a text that I was a wicked girl and i lacked training and I don’t have the patience to keep a man????????????
E concern me?
On a normal day, I wouldn’t even do that. Ill just come home and rant to my friends But that day, something in me just hahwhjahsus.
