Nigerians living in the UK draw attention of fellow countrymen in the diaspora and those at home as they spot a UK based Nigerian man selling rice and suya on the streets of London.
Following the patronage of another Nigerian, his suya shop in Peckham, south-east London, received a lot of attention from social media users.
The video, posted on TikTok by @jane_peterz, shows Jane visiting the shop to support the suya seller after spotting the businessman from a TikTok live. She remarked that Peckham’s streets resemble Alaba in Lagos, drawing comparisons to Nigeria.
Jane excitedly ordered several portions of suya, expressing her delight at tasting a dish that brought back memories of her childhood.
