Description

Man preparing meat for the grill. Tokunbo Odebunmi, Proprietor, [of "The Kitchen", Obalende Suya Spot 3, snack-bar] explains (VO) that "suya" means "seasonings", which include ginger, garlic, and Nigerian spices. Customers talk about the food. Caption: "For 10 years Tokunbo was a well known newscaster/presenter on radio and television in Nigeria." He talks about being unable to get a job in broadcasting in Britain, and starting this business instead. He’s pleased that he can offer job prospects for black people and that he’s brought suya to Britain. Though he has a "1993 Achievement Award, Small Scale Enterprise", he says that, all things being equal, he’d really prefer to be back in Nigeria, working in broadcasting. Credits.
