CHIXY'S CORNER

Chef Jeff Jeff "Chef Jeff" Henderson spent nearly 10 years in prison for selling drugs. After his release, he is now one of the most famous chefs in the country, despite having no culinary training prior to his release. How did he do it?  His first job out of prison was a dishwasher in a restaurant. As he did his job, he watched the work of the others in the kitchen. As people would quit, be fired, and call off, he would tell his boss that they didn't have to worry because he could do their job. He went from dishwasher, to food prep, to sous chef, to Chef Jeff.  Nothing about Chef Jeff is unique or special only to him.  1) He didn't define himself by his past. He saw the person he wanted to be at work, and aspired to do what they did. 2) He respected the aspiration enough to learn the information necessary to be successful in that role. 3) He was ready when the opportunity presented itself, he had prepared enough with his observation that he was comfortable i

  For someone most people call  an "Ajebota" which clearly I'm not, I love mamaput so much. Let me put it this way I'm a sucker for mamaput.   I honestly don't know the origin of mamaput but God bless whoever came up with the idea.  Mamaput basically are roadside eateries/ canteen offering considerably cheap meals that fits well with ones budget. Back in the days people consider Mamaput as a place where folks who can't afford fancy restaurants visit or it's for the low class people because of the environment, but not anymore because you'll find all classes of people at a Mamaput joint. The high class, middle class, low class and no class comes there.   Sira dishing out food.   It amazes me how people troop into such places every morning to eat especially men. Even women sometimes stops over, to buy food for their kids as lunch for school. I recall a guy told me sometime ago that the reason why he visits mamaput is because of the &quo

  Uti Nwachukwu , is literally fed up with lazy Nigerian youths who specialise in flooding celebrity social media pages, begging and soliciting for financial help. According to him, a certain young man contacted him on Instagram asking for N40,000 to complete his school fees.

An angry Uti took to Twitter to lash out at the beggar and his likes who make a living from this type of fraudulent behavior. Read his tweets below

  Few days ago I went to Everyday supermarket at GRA to get some stuffs, as we drove pass where they sell chicken, I saw a lady that used to live on my street, first of all I was surprised to see her because it's been ages, and then again I was staring at her face and was wondering what went wrong. This lady used to be one of the prettiest ladies on my street, smooth skin, fine legs and all. Every man wanted this lady at the time. There was a particular guy that did everything he could to get her but didn't and I'm in front of her and I'm thinking if that guy sees her now he won't even give her a second look. One thing I liked about her  then was her personality she was a very sweet and cheerful lady. I looked at this lady and was wondering why she's not beautiful anymore. A lot of questions went through my mind at the time. Was she sick? Is she married? If yes is she married to a monster or is she Divorced? Did she lose her job? Then It hit me regardless of

This is following a number of grueling surgeries which transformed her from Bruce. Caitlyn, 65, has undergone facial feminisation surgery, had breast implants, and has had her Adam’s apple shaved. A source told RadarOnline: “Caitlyn’s in constant pain since she had all those operations. She’s happy with how her transformation’s going, but she’s finding the surgery hell on her body.” “She’s currently taking painkillers until the work on her face and body settles in,” They added she was “often complaining of pain” around her face and ears but was told by doctors to be patient about her recovery.   Caitlyn previously   praised one of her surgeons , thanking them for the "great job" they did. Meanwhile, the I Am Cait star has taken the steps to make her transition legal by filing new documents . According to E!

  With the introduction of human hair in Nigeria especially the long hair, it's like the short hairstyle is gradually fading away. It's rear to see ladies with short hairstyle in recent times, almost all the ladies prefer long hairstyles to short hairstyles. Most ladies only feel attractive, sexy and classy with long hairstyles.   Surprisingly most men are more attracted to ladies with long hairstyles because they feel the hair makes them sexy and attractive. Lmao!   Ayara Margaret     My friend Maggie and I were meant to see on saturday but didn't quite make it, I called her latter in the day to find out how she was doing, and  she said she was in the salon getting her hair done.  Maggie and I got very close recently and I've never seen Maggie with short hair so you can imagine my shock when I saw the pictures on facebook it was a short hairstyle and very beautiful. I was amazed because she looked sexy and very classy with the hairstyle. The truth

I was watching an episode of the Wendy Williams show and during the ask Wendy segment a young lady told Wendy that she recently broke up with her boyfriend of two years, he gave her a set of diamond earrings and she wants to know if she should return or Keep the gifts. lol!!!!!!!!! What happens to the gifts one has accumulated during a relationship has been a major issue when a relationship fails. Let me borrow a line from Bonny M's song,          "Breaking up is never easy, I know but I have to go             knowing me knowing you is the best I can do".  The saddest phase of every relationship is the break up phase, it can be so devastating especially if a partner is not willing to let go. You were in a relationship with someone very special and dear to you, someone you shared special moments with, formed bond with and you were very attached to. Suddenly that same person calls it quits. Ouch!!!! That hurts really bad.  While you're dealing with your fee

I Will Only Tie The Knot With a Deaf and Dumb Woman- Jesse Jagz. lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Chocolate City rapper   Jesse Jagz   opened up to Potpurri in a recent interview on his ideal woman. Jagz said he will marry a woman who’s deaf and dumb. And he doesn’t want a woman with ears that will be tapping connections from different angle.       Jags who’s working on his next album said: “If I tell you my ideal woman you will not believe me. My ideal woman is someone who is deaf and dumb so that I cannot be talking too much or listening to too much conversations. It will give me time to focus on my music. There is also something I learnt from Seun Kuti about marriage , he said that with development and everything, the major part of marriage is commitment and submission, appearance don’t necessarily matter. To all the women I have this for you, the more you are getting educated and exposed, you must always remember that a man is always a man and a woman is always a woman.

I  know that when I mention the word Superwoman, our minds immediately goes to that fictional character wearing a cape with supernatural powers to do extra ordinary things. She's • Super sexy  • Super smart • super fast ( she can fly from Nigeria to America in her cape to get you a cupcake) ‎She's Super everything you can think of. Plus she fights villains strips them of their super powers and throws them in jail. I'm not talking about that super woman because she's just a "Super script".  The woman i'm talking about is not a fictional character with super powers. She's the real life " Super Woman" She's  a  • Prayer warrior / Pastor • Cook/ baker • Shoe Maker • ‎Doctor  ‎•  Referee  • Supervisor  • Pooty trainer  • Gardner  • Maid/nanny • ‎Career Woman • Life guard  • Police  • Tailor  • body guard  • Lawyer • Miss feel good ( she makes her kids feel goo

  I was watching a Nollywood movie " pains of Nene", and I was wondering why some married women actually allow a third party in the name of friends ruin their home. The movie basically is about a married woman who befriends a group of women despite her mother's warnings. She takes every bit of advice they give to her not realising their hidden agenda to send her out of her husband's house so they can lay their hands on her husband's wealth. First of all the man is everything a woman desires. He's rich, handsome, caring, he's faithful, a loving father to their kids, he spoils her silly with money he's the perfect man with no flaws. You know the kind of man you only see in the movies. Yep!! That movie perfect man. Bottom-line they succeeded in sending her out of her matrimonial home and planted a lady in the home to help them with their evil plans.   they are always the first to tell you all he did wrong.     I don't need soothsayers t
