A young Nigerian man was left in disbelief after being served ‘palm oil’ as a complimentary drink at a pepper soup joint. The restaurant offered this unconventional drink as a precautionary measure to assure their customers’ safety and comfort.
This surprising gesture emerged in response to a recent homicide case involving a teenager who allegedly poisoned her ex-boyfriend’s pepper soup. Unaware of the full consequences, the girl’s actions resulted in not only her ex-boyfriend but also three of his friends and his current girlfriend unknowingly consuming the contaminated meal.
In a viral video shared by a TikTok user with the handle @joy_muller07, he described his experience at the pepper soup restaurant, where palm oil was unexpectedly served alongside his meal. This unconventional practice surprised many viewers online, sparking discussions about the creative ways the restaurant aimed to keep customers safe.
Palm oil is widely regarded in Nigeria as a potential antidote to neutralize poisons or contaminants in food, and its inclusion as a ‘safety drink’ is seen as a practical attempt by the restaurant to protect patrons from any unintended harm.
Sharing his experience, the TikTok user found the situation both amusing and innovative, noting how the restaurant’s unique approach was a humorous yet thoughtful way to reassure customers.
“Omor no be play ohh for where I go buy pepper soup today; them give everybody their special oil 😂😂😂😂😂,” he humorously captioned the video.
