Cursory: A chubby secondary school boy has become a viral sensation after he finished N3k worth of okpa in less than 30 minutes. His colleagues complained that he overeats, and this resulted in the principal summoning him to her office. With great confidence, the young lad made a case for himself before the principal as he defended his food consumption.
A young boy named Gideon was summoned to the principal’s office after his schoolmates complained that he overeats. Gideon made a case for himself as he stood before the female principal, who said eating excessively may lead to his death.
The 13-year-old boy downplayed his principal’s fears and narrated how a man challenged him to finish N3k worth of okpa to get N8k. Gideon said he did it in less than N30 minutes and claimed the prize. Speaking in Igbo, the lad boasted that he could not die as his God was alive.
Okpa is a traditional delicacy of Igbo origin made from ground Bambara nut/beans. A video of the boy’s exchange with the principal in her office was reposted by @Naija_PR on Twitter.
