A man has ended his relationship with his girlfriend after she served him stew made from spoiled tomatoes.
A WhatsApp conversation between the man and his girlfriend that is currently going viral shows him venting to the lady.
The girlfriend had asked him why he had been acting coldly toward her and demanded to know what she had done wrong.
Replying, the man narrated how he watched her add bad tomatoes to a meal she prepared for him and how she refused to eat the food, admitting that she couldn’t have a taste of what she cooked because of the bad tomatoes.
This, according to the guy, is a major turn-off because he can’t be with someone who only cares about herself. He queried why she cooked with bad tomatoes when she knew they were bad for consumption.
“To me it was never a big deal to add one bad tomato to many others, since everything will still be fried. But then, you went ahead to fry it and made the stew. You now dished out food for only me… I persuaded you to at least get a spoon n take a little from my own since you haven’t eaten anything since morning…that was when you pocked up the courage to tell me that you wont eat because of the bad tomato”.
Sharing screenshots of their chat on Twitter, a tweep @Davina_rh wrote, “Nigga broke up with his girl all because of tomato, if you don’t fear men, I don’t know what else you should fear 😂.”

Former Miss Croatia, Ivana Knoll, has responded to criticism over her revealing outfit to the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
Knoll, who dubbed herself “the world cup’s hottest fan,” sparked controversy after she attended her country’s match against Morocco wearing a risque outfit, before changing into another, even more exposing dress for Croatia’s second match against Canada.
The beauty queen can be seen in photos that surfaced online posing for selfies with fans while wearing a checkered minidress that bares her breasts.
After the photos went viral, Knoll came under fire from social media users, who berated her and warned her to respect the cultural code of Qatar.
Well, reacting, Knoll said she was “super angry” when she heard about the modesty rules in Qatar and decried that she wouldn’t stop wearing outfits that expose her body.
According to the 26-year-old, she has no fear of being arrested by the police.
“I think how can my dress or bikini hurt someone? Please explain me that. First I was thinking if the World Cup is happening there (Qatar), for sure they will allow us everything to make it comfortable for all fans without any of the restrictions.
“Then I heard about the rules and I was shocked. The dress code forbids showing shoulders, knees, belly and everything and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I don’t even have the clothes to cover all of that’. I was super angry because if I’m not a Muslim and if we in Europe respect hijab and niqab, I think they need also to respect our way of life, our religion and in the end me wearing dresses, bikinis because I’m Catholic from Croatia who is here because of the World Cup.
“But when I arrived I was surprised they were not making any problems about dressing, they allow you to wear everything what you want – except in government buildings, and in the end that’s fine.” She said.
Asked if she had felt there was any risk of being arrested for her outfits, Knoll replied, “I am never afraid of something like that.”
“The reactions are very good. Many of the Qatari people came to me to photograph me. If they hate it and they have something against it, they wouldn’t do it. I think it’s just another way of life, me and them.” She added.

The father of late Sylvester Oromoni Jnr, the deceased student of Dowen College Lekki, Lagos State, has frowned at the never-ending delay of the coroner inquest into the tragic and controversial death of his son on November 30, 2021.
In a statement released today, Sylvester’s Father noted that November 30 2022, makes it exactly one year since his son died but has not been buried since as the body is still at the mortuary.
In the statement released, Oromoni Snr said that if the inquest is not concluded before the end of this year, he would be compelled to withdraw from it “in order to take a different legal step to seek justice.”
The statement reads ;
“Today, November 30, 2022 makes it a year since the demise of my son and the body is still in the morgue, yet to be buried. This one-year memorial being held today is to tell Nigerians and the entire world about the current position of the inquest and the antics of Dowen College.
I am equally aware that some civil society organisations and NGOs in Abuja and Lagos are equally observing the one-year memorial today to mark his one-year untimely demise.
May the soul of Sylvester Oromoni (Jnr.) and all departed souls rest in perfect peace. Amen.
At this point, I wish to call on the Honourable Coroner to please do the needful by urgently bringing the inquest to an end as Nigerians and the entire world are waiting for the dispensation of justice in this case as justice delayed, is justice denied.
This struggle is not only about my late son, but my own way of preventing the future occurrence of this tragic incident.
In the same vein, we equally urge the Lagos State Government, as a matter of urgency to charge Dowen College and all the staff who had earlier been recommended for prosecution in the DPP Advice of 30th day of December, 2021 to court.
Already, Dowen College has since the commencement of this Coroner put a lot of things in order in the school premises which were not available at the material time.
You may wish to know that the installation of CCTV cameras and a football pitch have been provided as against the former concrete basketball court which was being used.
I must state categorically that if this inquest is not concluded before the end of this year, I shall be compelled to withdraw from it in order to take a different legal step to seek justice.”
The coroner has adjourned proceedings twice after Dowen College failed to produce the two remaining witnesses from the school.

“They have no manifesto, so what are we debating? What documents are we comparing? He said Nigerians should depend on what is inside his brain, not on any document.
“So, Asiwaju will then be debating with what? Is this campaign a joke to them? Do they think this is a Debating and Dramatic society in school?”
“Before Obi can stand shoulder to shoulder with Asiwaju to debate, he should first release a manifesto for scrutiny; then he should list his tangible achievements as Governor of Anambra State compared to the tangible achievements of Asiwaju as Governor of Lagos State.
“Then he should list those he has mentored in politics from the days of his being Governor who is still with him now; then he should tell us any political party he has either formed or partnered to form and which he still belongs to today.
“Then he should list his democratic credentials, that is what he did to contribute to the return to democracy from Military rule and what he has since done, better than Asiwaju, to sustain our democracy”.
“After all these, we shall send them one of our spokespersons to debate with him”.

Social media influencer, Michael Odeyemi Folorunsho popularly known as Yemitheplug, has passed away over alleged negligence in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.
Yemi suffered an asthma attack in the wee hours of Tuesday, November 29, and was rushed to the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital by his neighbours.
However, they claim he was not attended to by the hospital’s medical personnel and blamed his death on their negligence.
While some of Yemi’s friends claim a nurse requested for a means of identification before they could attend to him, others alleged that a nurse said they did not have oxygen for him.
The medics also allegedly refused to admit him or perform CPR on him because they ‘could not find a pulse’, claiming he was brought in dead.
Sadly, the Port-Harcourt based influencer died while his mother and friends were performing CPR on him.
His death has sparked an uproar among youths in the community and they staged a protest at the entrance of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, demanding for an explanation.
His friend and colleagues have trooped to various social media platforms to mourn his tragic demise.
