Top Nigerian comedian and motivational speaker, has given us an insight as to why it is difficult for him to lose weight – a diet of shaki, ofada rice, frech toast, waffles, ice cream, cake and other “ijekuje” are to blame.
He wrote:
If your weight is not in the 3 figure range, you can not appreciate what losing 7kg means in a very irregular exercise program, punctuated with, ofada, Jollof and coconut rice, waffles, French toast, boli, shakki, BOkoto, and all the orishi that complement your abula.
Afang and edikaikong with Ola Ola are some of the most unforgiving combinations I know… then comes those malt drinks, ice cream, yoghurt, with nuts or cakes or waffles… AND LATE NIGHT MEALS…
the battle is not ours but of the Lords! No wonder Jesus said it’s not what goeth into a person’s mouth that defileth the person… It’s what becomes of that thing that goeth into you! Hmmmm. Still got a long way to go! Aiming for 92kg by December.”
