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 🍷

22 to 23 Great & Greater

It is 4:20 PM, am in the living room having a home made meal I cooked myself the previous evening and drink a bottle of warm Martinellis, apple cider wine. I have been contemplating all day when I will make this post. It's the 31st of December 2022 and in the last 16years, every last day of the year I have maintained this tradition of documenting my general thoughts, for the year ending and my hopes and outlooks for the incoming year. I believe that in going forward, it does demands a good reflection backwards also, like the famous quote from the late Steve Jobs of Apple    “You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future"   The interesting thing that life and faith in God has taught me is that this " SOMEHOW" is not a thing of chance or luck.  It's simple God's hand at work.  Every steps he has ordered, even when I take them without k

He's has so much stylish excellence and now above all a Pastor. In the mid 90's he's one of the young  music idol, African American artists we would listen to from half way across the world in the dingy streets of Warri in Nigeria,immitate or try to be a wannabe version of the panache they carry. The back story to the success,we never knew - we just saw the fame and fortune and tried to identify with that. Decades later we get the opportunity to hear the back story,the work,the walk,the raise & falls of stardom. The journey for most is crazy. So many fell off,some lost it completely,some made it then eventually los
