However, the junior nurse thought she was done with it and dumped it in the refuse bin without asking beforehand.

'I brought Gobɛ with assorted proteins and fried plantain. I ate half and decided to keep the rest for lunch. When she saw the bowl on the table, she ought to have asked whether to put it in the refuse bin or not. Now that you have thrown the beans away, what should ai do with the remaining fried plantain?" she lamented.

The video shared on TikTok by @sarahaformanor captured the senior nurse, clad in her uniform, weeping while complaining over the Gobɛ, a popular Ghanaian meal made of beans, red oil, boiled eggs, and gari.
