Funny Pregnancy Craving Story

In the video, Ini Dima Okojie is seen eating rice while narrating what led to her craving. She explained that she saw a video of Funke buying rice from an eatery and suddenly craved the same dish.

She informed her mother, who sent her driver and personal assistant to purchase the rice. Ini instructed them to get extra stew and requested that the meat and stew be packed separately from the rice. However, the eatery attendants refused to give her extra stew despite her pleas and offer to pay more.
