The Customers , Serve & Care.

Poor customer service is usual with many businesses locally (public & private ) from the Bank, to government offices, from waiting at the till in a supermarket to checking in for a flight or even having your parcels delivered to you, goods & service providers can treat you like they are doing you a favor for bringing business and your money to their organization.

So when I get great customer service, it's sometimes worth documenting it here and recommending that service provider to You!.

This week I want for a quick lunch at Nkoyo, a restaurant at Ceddi Plaza Abuja, Nigeria.

Made my order and lunch was served promptly, I couldn't wait to chow down since I skipped breakfast.


Just as I started chowing for some reason it turned out I  didn't like the fish I ordered, nothing really wrong with it, might just be the way it's marinated or all the spices didnt seat too well on my inside.



So I nibbled on it and downed the side dish, a plate of jollof rice and three slices of plantain, leaving the fish largely untouched.

I asked for my bill, the waitress looked at my plate and asked if anything was wrong, I said no, I didn't just like the fish. She asked if I  had it before, I said Yes, here and at Arugugu one of their branch restaurants.

She apologized, I said no problem at all, just get the bill and your POS machine. She leaves comes back and says my madam said would you like something else, I said no am good, just get me the bills.

She came back with the bill and said my madam said: "you don't need to pay for the food, just pay for the drink". I was like, are you sure? I don't mind paying oh, and am not angry.  She said no it's fine since you didn't enjoy the meal, my madam insists you don't pay.

I said alright! then, Thank you very much. 

You guys are far too kind, this is unusual but great customer service, many customers before me and after me would enjoy that same fish,as I know I  can be strange with food sometimes, but they cared enough that I couldn't just eat the fish even though it was not their fault  and am not even a regular.

So If that's not great customer service, then I wonder what is?



If you crave great food in a spot with a beautiful ambiance and excellent customer service, visit  Nkoyo Restaurant, @  Ceddi Plaza Abuja, Nigeria.

Highly recommended .Cheers 🍷

Grateful Reflections

( With Dr Bola Afolabi, Current CIPS President) On the 28 February 2006, I started a tread called Logistics/Supply Chain Management on one of the most popular webforum in Nigeria called Nairaland. Follow link to view postings on this tread http://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-7497.0.html My aim basically was to use the opportunity an online forum can offer, to interact, share and gain ideas, information,network and generally increase awareness of the Procurement, Logistics and Supply chain management profession. This act of sharing my passion for the profession online has over the years sparked off series of positive and constructive events in my career quest, some of which I have reflected upon in the text below. Although my initial undergraduate study and immediate post study working experience were all related to engineering, I soon fall in love with the logistics and SCM profession when in March of 2005 I gained my 1st substantive Job with Integrated Logistics services Nig...

2025 into 2026

Its that day of the year.  It’s 2025, December 31st. And as has been my private tradition for the last 19 years, now that’s a really long time. I make this post on the last day of the year to Reflects and Outlooks It’s private because I share it only on this blog and nowhere else. My posting on this blog has almost ceased. Not because I don’t write, but because I barely remember to post here when I do find the time to write. Despite this, I never forget this tradition on my Blogspot. Interestingly, since my last post here on December 31st, 2024, this is my first time back. I re-read my last post for December 31st, 2024, into the year 2025, which ends in less than five hours from now. Looking Back at 2025 How was 2025? Did it pan out the way my outlook projected? I would say it did, largely. But above all, and most importantly, I saw God’s goodness. 2025 was a year of many changes. First, I left paid employment. It was quick, but the decision was well thought out. ...
