Nigerian Jollof Rice Without Vegetables

                                 A plate of  tasty jollof rice.

Jollof rice is always present at every foodious Nigerian event. It is one meal I never get tired of eating. Even after enjoying mine at home before leaving, I'm still very much interested in the one served at the events' reception. I don't know why but I hate missing the jollof at any event I attend.

Sometimes, I boil the rice with thyme, onion, salt and seasoning before mixing with the already prepared stew.This method varies the taste and aroma. I don't add
curry here but enough thyme and benny spice. The only reason I have Benny spice at home is because it is superb for rice. I cook my soups and other meals with seasoning cubes and cook rice with Benny spice. 

 

 

Ingredients:

1. FreshTomato stew
2. Tomato paste
3. Soya oil
4. Onion
5. Hard chicken 11/2kg
6. Pepper 
7. Salt
8. Seasoning
9. Water 
10. Thyme
11. Rice      

Adding tomato paste to chicken stew with fried onion

  

Adding ingredients and stirring to fry

  

 Empty the stew into a cooking pot  

Let stew simmer, check for salt before and after adding water

  

Adding enough water to stew  before adding washed rice 

Adding Benny spice

  

Adding thyme

  

Adding parboiled washed rice to boiling stew, continue to add water and check for salt till rice is tender

  

Water dries up as heat is reduced to prevent  the pot from burning

              Jollof rice is cooked without vegetables

 

 Nigerian jollof rice cooked without vegetable is best served with coleslaw.
Enjoy

 

        

"Because I Bought a Car, Gullible People are Saying I Do Runs" - Actress Halima Abubakar -

The Nollywood actress told Yes International magazine that she works hard for her money and does not sleep with men for it! In her own words;

"Yes. You all have been guessing about that, but una get strength, why una wan know my guy? Do you know if I have? I laugh when I hear stuff like this. I just laugh at the assumptions. I have always loved being with just one guy. I don't do runs. Because I bought a car, gullible people are saying I do runs. So because I bought a car, I will have to sleep around before I can get it? That's silly. Everyone has become a judge and the main judges don't have work to do again. Please I am too young to be in a hurry to get rich. God can bless you anytime with just one breakthrough, if you are okay, cool and contented"
"I am not controversial. People talk and the press writes. Guess my name gives them gossip orgasm. I am a simple couch-loving lady. I love my bed, my comfort, whether there is spring or mat, I am great at home. I don't party. I feel like I don't have fun and I am still not having fun because I am too serious and have being working since I was 13years. But its okay. I am making my own rules and making sure I follow them. I love meriting stuff so I don't cut corners. Hard work is better. You can sleep your way to the top but it never lasts. I knew that from day one. When people reject me, I don't worry because they are the ones loosing, not knowing how amazing I am. People like judging and as long as people like hearing hear say, then they add lies to sweeten the gist. So how am I controversial? I am always misunderstood by lots of people. Just because I don't talk too much does not mean I am unfriendly or arrogant. I am just a calmed-natured person. Not giving to stress. People have made me calm because of their constant gossips. I am now like "Django". I laugh and move on. I know that people still fight for me behind. So, God bless you all for the love"

Girl Reveals Her Story: Things Guys I Met On Social Media Did To Me (Must Read)

Ladies should really be careful. Not all guys you meet on the social media are genuine, especially now that too many chatting services are springing up here and there. Rough guys are taking advantage, shine your eyes.

Following her nasty experience in the hands of guys, a young lady, Elizabeth John Adie, has given oral evidence about how she was gang-rapéd by a group of men she met through a social networking site, 2GO.

According to her, the guys picked her in an ash colour vehicle with unknown registration number to Aso B area where they threatened her with knives, searched her handbag and took her two blackberry phones, cash of N8,000 and other foreign currencies, before raping her...The case was mentioned at the Upper Area Court, Mararaba Gurku, Nasarawa State. One of the accused, 22-year-old Agbo Emmanuel, a school certificate holder has been in police detention since the incident occurred but was brought to court on February 11, charged with criminal conspiracy, intimidation, extortion, causing hurt and rape, all contrary to sections 97, 397, 292, 244, and 283 of the Penal Code Laws of Nigeria.

According to the police First Information Report, the victim reported at the ‘A’ Division Police Station, in the Mararaba area of Nasarawa, close to Abuja state on February 1, 2014, that on the same day at about 13:30hrs at Aso B, one Agbo Emmanuel and three others, Bright Ochigbon, Junior Udewenga and Anita, now at large, conspired and deceived her through the 2GO social network.

Elizabeth said after taking the items from her, the rough guys went ahead to rapé her in turns, adding that she had tried to resist but was cut with a knife by one of them on her right finger. 

The case continues.

Governments Of Adamawa, Yobe Oppose State Of Emergency Extension

The Governors of Yobe and Adamawa states do not support the extension of the state of emergency as proposed by President Goodluck Jonathan. 

 

Jonathan on Tuesday requested the National Assembly to approve the extension of the emergency rule in the north-eastern states of Yobe, Adamawa and Borno for another six months.
To become legal, the extension needs to be approved by both chambers of the National Assembly. The House of Representatives will debate the issue today (Wednesday).

Abdullahi Bego, the spokesperson to the Yobe State governor Ibrahim Gaidam, issued a statement is which he said that a year under emergency rule did not improve security situation in the state but rather resulted in more deaths and destruction.

"Over the six months of emergency rule and later over the second, we have seen some of the worst attacks by Boko Haram in Yobe State. From GSS Damaturu to GSS Mamudo to College of Agriculture Gujba and FGC Buni Yadi, more than 120 students were killed by insurgents," Bego said.

The Yobe government called on Jonathan's administration to work out a new approach for combating terrorism, and first and foremost to equip the Nigerian military with modern tools and arms that would allow it to be "several steps ahead of the insurgents".
"The issue is whether the federal government can summon the courage to try these suggestions and to explore new ways to bring the insurgency to an end without repeating a stale and sterile measure which has failed over the last 12 months." 
We need a new approach
In a similar manner, governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State has again objected to the idea of emergency rule extension.
Nyako made his position known through his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Ahmed Sajoh. Just like his colleague from Yobe State, Nyako said that emergency rule had failed to yield results.
He noted that his state had witnessed more attacks since May 2013 than it had before.
"We still hold our position that there was no need to declare a state of emergency in Adamawa in the first place, because the level of attacks in the state has even increased with the imposition of emergency rule."
The governor of Adamawa also said that the FG should adopt a new strategy to deal with terror in the region "rather than the business as usual tactics that do not add up".
It will be recalled that the state of emergency was declared in May 2013 and extended for another six months in November. It was meant to help Nigerian military tackle the Boko Haram insurgency in north-eastern Nigeria. However, the Islamist sect seems ho have intensified its attacks, killing nearly 2,000 people in 2014 alone.
