Experience Dammy's cooking venue

Deebie claimed that she transferred N2,000 for her and her friend. She was surprised to learn that the money would only cover the day and not the duration of the 120 hours cooking period. VIPs were promised photos, entrance and food.

She added that on getting into the venue, they met five other VIPs who had already paid. Moments later, she was shocked when they served rice in a tray for 10 people who did not pay to eat together. She voiced her concern and was assured their VIP food would come.

The same situation happened when toast bread and egg were served. The lady said regulars ate and VIPs struggled. She got pepper soup later before being told to go outside so others could come in.

In her worlds:

"As we were discussing, that was how one of their team came to tell us to go outside and let other people come in. Uncle, was that our agreement? was that what you told us before we paid? He started stammering.
"I gave him another idea, I told him there's still space that they should bring in more chairs that we would adjust for them."

The lady sad she later met many people at the entrance who had paid but were yet to gain entrance into the venue.
