“Nkwobi for Rema?” – Don Jazzy Drags Food Vendor Over Hilarious Request
In a hilarious yet eye-opening rant, Mavin Records boss Don Jazzy has got fans buzzing online after calling out a food vendor who tried to exchange a plate of nkwobi for something way more valuable — a free performance from his superstar signee, Rema!
In a now-viral video posted on Instagram, the legendary producer shared the strange encounter, using humor to highlight why he “doesn’t like free things.” According to Don Jazzy, the vendor insisted on giving him free nkwobi (a spicy Nigerian delicacy made with cow foot), only to later request that Rema perform at her upcoming show — for free.
🗣️ “Because of nkwobi?!”
Visibly amused and slightly frustrated, Don Jazzy questioned the logic behind the vendor’s request:
“Out of nowhere you give me free nkwobi that I didn’t ask for… Suddenly, you’re asking me to give you Rema? How does it even add up? Is the exchange rate for me? Because of nkwobi?”
😅 Fans React: “You wan collect Rema for ₦2k nkwobi?”
The internet is having a field day with the story, turning the phrase “nkwobi for Rema” into a meme-worthy moment. Some fans joked that the vendor deserves points for boldness, while others applauded Don Jazzy’s honesty and humor in handling the situation.
💬 Opinion: Generosity with Strings Attached?
Don Jazzy’s story isn’t just funny — it also exposes a common issue in Nigerian culture: the idea that every act of “generosity” comes with expectations. It raises an important question — Is it truly a gift if you're expecting something in return?
Also, asking for a global music star in return for a dish of nkwobi? That’s next-level wishful thinking. 😅
🧠 Lesson of the Day?
If you want something big — ask properly, plan well, and respect the value of what (or who) you're requesting. Don’t wrap it in nkwobi and hope for a miracle. 😂
