Lady serves kokonte using kettle

Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that the video of a lady serving food in a very unconventional way got many Nigerians talking on social media.

Using kettles known for serving water or boiling it, the lady poured ewedu and gbegiri into different plates laid out on the table.

The method proves efficient as it allows serving the soup easier in a neat manner. The content went straight into the plates without staining the table sheet.
