Lisabi Mills (Nigeria) Limited the pioneer food processing company in Nigeria was established in 1939 by Late Mr. Josephus Kayode Ladipo. Today, the company is run by his son Shex Olusegun Ladipo. He is a firm believer in using local content coupled with modern technology, to produce products that are wholesome, hygienic and convenient. As a scion of the Lisabi (Foods) dynasty, Shex had very early exposure to industry, and was appointed Managing Director of the company in 2008, having served previously in various other capacities for over 20 years.

Over the years, the company has withstood the harsh business terrain, and continued to make great strides. It refines and packages traditional foods and fortified products, in clean hygienic -friendly packs, which are targeted at middle-class and upper-income consumers. It is currently seeking ways to produce fortified nutrient-rich foods for low-income families, all over the country.

The company currently produces and markets Gold’s Custard product. It also creates easy-to-prepare versions of traditional foods, like bean flour, yam flour, wheatmeal flour, as well as the popular Wheat-O breakfast cereal.

Despite the significant challenges it has had in developing, producing and marketing nutrient-rich foods to reach a large proportion of Nigerian citizens, it has still succeeded in carving out a substantial market share in several markets, where it competes with larger more established multinational brands. Its' turnover and profit is a closely-guarded secret, but industry watchers confirm that it runs into lots of millions.

Yes. Amazing woman.

E pain dis one. Dem never still recognise Una artistes, not to talk of record label.
Try build something.

Billboard has recognised Nigerian rap icon and YBNL label boss Olamide Gbenga Adedeji, fondly called Olamide, as one of the Global Power Players for 2025.

The prestigious honour recognises his leadership at YBNL Nation, the powerhouse label behind Nigerian superstars Asake and Fireboy DML, both of whom released critically acclaimed albums in 2024.

Asake’s third studio album, Lungu Boy, has been certified by TurnTable Charts as Nigeria’s biggest album of 2024, while Fireboy’s fourth album, Adedamola, has been praised as one of the year’s most outstanding projects.

The label achieved several milestones in 2024, including Asake’s sold-out concert at London’s O2 Arena, making him the third Nigerian artist after Davido and Wizkid to sell out the prestigious venue multiple times. Additionally, Asake’s track MMS from Lungu Boy earned a nomination for Best African Music Performance at the 67th Grammy Awards.

Sibrah:
what does she serve?

Amala
Rice/stew/proteins with additions like beans
Jollof rice
These are her best sellers according to twitter customers. She sells pounded yam and efo, egusi too but Amala is always big business.

Love800:
She has a physical shop where she usually sell food to customers?

Amoke oge has up to 7 bukas in Lagos. She also delivers on other apps like glovo too, not only Chowdeck.

carzeem1:
People eating and buying takeout is quadruple that amount. Revenue will be in billions annually.
She made most fast food outlets redundant with her strategy. Not an easy feat

You know this.

IceColdVeins:

I believe it 100 percent.
I as a customer have spent close to a million on amoke oge just this year alone.

Plenty people are giving ur similar testimony on twitter. She has many customers. Facts.

Omoapena:


do not mind some people, & I believe this must have taken over a year to hit the 500,000 deliveries and not something that happened in few months.

4 years. She has been on their platform since a few months after they started. They’re celebrating the amount of orders she has made so far. It’s a huge milestone for them.

saphiere:
Sponsor post

Lol!. The news is all over twitter since Chowdeck went to celebrate her. They posted a video on their page. E pain this one.

Rejoice with others that are doing well.

Amoke Oge.....Yoruba and Igbo

Amoke Oge is owned by Amoke Odukoya (Pure Yoruba woman)

Chowdeck is owned by Femi Aluko (Pure Yoruba man)

Stop attaching Igbo to any Yoruba success you see. We ain’t related.

Just amazing!
And this is just revenue on 1 platform. I can imagine total revenue from other platforms and in-store.
Theres money in naija.

A local Nigerian food vendor, Amoke Oge, has recorded N2.3 billion in revenue after completing 500,000 deliveries on Chowdeck, one of the country’s leading food delivery platforms.

This milestone marks a major achievement for both the vendor and the platform, reflecting the growing role of digital marketplaces in Nigeria’s food service sector.

The figure is based on an average order value of N4,600, as reported by Chowdeck in a video shared on its official X (formerly Twitter) .

Chowdeck stated that “Amoke Oge,” owned by Hajia Amoke Odukoya, was among the first 100 vendors to the platform, having onboarded about two to three years ago.

“Amoke Oge just became the first woman-led business to hit 500,000 deliveries on Chowdeck — with an average order value of N4,600. We’ll let you do the math. To mark the milestone, our CEO Femi Aluko (@femi_aluks) showed up in person to congratulate her.”

Penguin2:

Tinubu doesn’t have intelligent people around him.

He has surrounded himself with cocaine sniffers.

I’ve asked the question before, does the fact that Obasanjo did it during his tenure justify Tinubu doing it now?

And this is someone they tout as a fighter for democracy.

I hope the NASS embarasses him.

Seems like NASS ed the bill o.

Truths9ja:
This is the ultimate wuruwuru.

How can you use a voice note to decide 2/3 of total of NASS. The country has entered one chance 🤦🤦🤦🤦

This is not the vote. That was just a voice vote to hear the matter. It would have still been debated.

Okay.

Softmirror:
That means it is time for Buba Marwa to go head NAFDAC on transfer loan like dem dey do for football.

Well, Marwa is not a pharmacist. NAFDAC is usually headed by pharmacists that understand everything about pharmaceutical drugs.

Bookshops are even worse. They pirate all school textbooks. Naija authors are broke because they and their publishers aren’t making money.
Igbo people should actually be banned from markets. Their anti-economic activities is too much.

Imagine, a division in the Nigeria Army's wives association along ethnicity group...what a shame

Isn’t that what they do? Who marries into another ethnicity and starts doing parapo? What do they discuss in an association such as the one below? Surely not anything good about their Yoruba in-laws.

Tinubuadvocate:
What I still don't understand about the whole thing why must this coup tagged igbo coup while hausa fulani people staged many coups .

It’s was the 1st

In fact IBB described in the book that after the coup, Igbo wives of Igbo officers in the barracks were insulting and mocking northern officers wives. And that the barracks became unbearable for northerners.

Dt betty akeredolus disgusting character na follow come.🤮

.

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, said there is nowhere in former military Head of State Ibrahim Babangida’s book, A Journey in Service, where he stated that the coup of January 15, 1966, was not an Igbo coup.

Fani-Kayode insisted that those claiming it was not an Igbo coup are wrong, stating that they are either misguided and misinformed or mischievous.

The ex-Minister stated in a post on his X handle that IBB was charitable to the Igbos in his book. He, however, noted that this does not give anyone the license to misinterpret Babangida’s words and conclusions or use them in an attempt to revise history.

He wrote:

"It was heinously callous for Nzeogwu to have murdered Sir Ahmadu Bello and his wife, Hafsatu, because not only were they eminently adored by many but also because they were said not to have put up a fight. From that moment the putsch was infiltrated by "outsiders" to its supposed original intention and it took on an unmistakable ethnic coloration compounded by the fact that there were no related coup activities in the Eastern Region"- President Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, 'A Journey In Service: An Autobiography', February 2025.

I hate to burst your bubble, but there is NOWHERE in IBB’s book where he said that the coup of January 15, 1966, was NOT an Igbo coup.

In fact, he alluded to the contrary above, when he said the coup had taken on an ‘unmistakable ethnic coloration.

That is what he wrote, and that is the reality. The coup was an ethnic one, and that ethnicity was Igbo!

Those who have misinterpreted his words and claimed that he wrote the coup was not an Igbo coup are either misguided and misinformed or being mischievous.

They have a poor understanding of the English language and, in most cases, have not even read the book. Instead, they rely on erroneous social media quotes and well-crafted disinformation.

I suggest that they procure a copy of the book, read it from cover to cover, and stop attempting to revise history by misinterpreting the words of the esteemed author.

IBB, in his characteristic manner, was charitable to the Igbos in his book, but that does not give anyone the license to misinterpret his words and conclusions or use them in an attempt to revise history.

The facts are clear, and they are as follows: 99% of the officers who planned and executed the Jan. 15, 1966, coup and were involved in the mutiny were Igbo, and 99% of those murdered by them were non-Igbo military officers and political leaders, in some cases including their wives.

We owe it to the memory of those who were so callously slaughtered not to sugarcoat the bitter truth, not to revise history, and not to tell lies.

The coup was UNMISTAKABLY an Igbo one, and IBB made this very clear when he wrote about its ‘ethnic coloration.

I urge all those who have a poor understanding of the English language and cannot read more than three lines of any book or essay to stop using his words to establish their revisionist and patently dishonest narrative and their futile attempt to perpetuate an age-old lie.

The truth is that the Jan. 15, 1966, coup WAS an Igbo one, and I am glad to say that IBB has confirmed it.

This is a FACT, and as our journalist friends will tell you, facts are sacred, and opinion is cheap.

Lighthouse family never won a grammy.

Karlovich:
My roots are in the country I was born in. Sade Adu and Seal are British musicians

This is not true. Most countries don't give citizenship by birth, only by ancestry. Anyway, Sade was born in ibadan.

ClearFlair:
And that bloody civilian girl

doggedfighter:
.I thought Seni Saraki won too ?
Isn't that Grammy?

Benwallt:


North Central

If an album wins a grammy, only the owner of the album wins the grammy statue. It doesnt go to the people featured on the album.
Its only if its a song that wins a grammy, then the person/people featured on that song also receive one.

This is a list of Nigerians that have reveived a Grammy award.


Congratulations to them all!
