A Nigerian woman has sparked widespread concern on social media after allegedly discovering a syringe needle inside a meal she ordered through a popular food delivery app, Chowdeck.
The incident was shared by the customer, known on TikTok as @cocoxprettyy, who posted a video showing the shocking discovery. In the clip, she displayed the meat alongside the needle, expressing disbelief and alarm at the dangerous foreign object found in her food.
Her caption read: “I ordered food on Chowdeck, I found syringe needle inside the meat.”
The video quickly went viral, drawing attention across various platforms. Numerous social media users reacted with outrage, disbelief, and concern for food safety standards in Nigeria's growing food delivery sector.
Some of the top reactions included:
- @moyosoremashaun: “Girl listen. Sue Chowdeck, sue Labule, sue all of them into oblivion. Get a pro bono lawyer. Don’t accept an apology. You should have sent a legal notice before posting.”
- @Drone Guy 🦅🏍: “Imagine if someone had swallowed the whole meat?”
- @Oluchiiiii✨: “If it were me, I probably would have swallowed it. Thank God you saw it.”
- @Sylvia: “I eat so fast—I wouldn’t even have noticed until it was too late. Jesus, have mercy.”
As of now, there has been no official response from the delivery company or the restaurant involved. The incident has raised renewed calls for stricter food handling and quality control measures within Nigeria’s rapidly expanding food delivery industry.
