I remember the last time i used this in Naija, it exploded after putting in the kerosene because the kerosene was mixed and smelling like fuel......And sometimes the food would taste like kerosene was mixed in it....
In fact eh the stove represents poverty in caps...

Chai, beautiful memories. This was when Nigeria was still breathing well
ReplyDeleteThe beautiful thing about this particular stove is that, you reduce it to the end and it automatically stops burning. It does not smoke too.
But the green one, you have to blow it with your mouth or scoop a little amount of water 💦 in your palms and splash it on the burner with a force. See you see smoke.
Na big man stove be this o Sdk.
ReplyDeleteE easy to fill that canister with kerosene? 😄

ReplyDeleteIt's the fuel that is bad
Didn’t they use to explode sometimes? I would prefer to use wood over this, but I guess it was good during rainy season.
