Everything you love might be fake

Or a knock-off version of the real thing. [View in browser](=.4VhwSXpnmjKmDwxma9fxbqnx3ag87OBPQlAMoYdeKpE) [Zikoko Daily] 19 December, 2023 Hey . I’ve been pleading the blood of Jesus since yesterday, and if you’ve visited social media at all, you’ll understand why. Yesterday started with NAFDAC exposing a fake drinks production hub and ended with Nigerians realising almost everything we’ve been eating is a counterfeit product. I even saw fake kilishi. What is going on?! [Crosscheck this list of products](=.w1pccruWZ_ycfHU4cdERHNNOvUOplCDzKbUhbjZFMtI) we made to see if your local supermarket has been scamming you.

I’d dated this guy for about three years when we started talking more about the future. I thought that meant he was ready to propose, so for the next six months, I made sure my hair and nails were perfect at all times. As per, getting ready for the “proposal”. 😭 After six months of waiting for the surprise proposal, I asked this man about our marriage plans, and this man actually laughed. He didn’t see me as a “wife material”. Hian. Why? According to him, it was because I smoked and drank, and he couldn’t see a future with my kind of woman. Meanwhile, HE introduced me to smoking and drinking. It’s funny how he expected us to just continue dating as normal after dropping that bomb on me. I plotted my revenge quietly. I put iru (locust beans) in different corners of his house — in his closet, under the bed and in his car boot. He almost went crazy trying to figure out the cause of the smell. He later figured it was my handiwork and blocked me, but I don’t care. I hope he rots in hell.” — Diana. Your story could be the next one featured here.
