I Quit Dangote Job After Someone Fell Into Hot Oil – Singer Bella Shmurda [Video]

Nigerian singer, Bella Shmurda has shared a harrowing incident from his past that forced him to quit working at Dangote’s noodles factory in Lagos State.

During an interview with Cool FM Nigeria, Bella Shmurda recounted how he and his colleagues were working at the factory when they suddenly heard screams as one of his colleagues accidentally fell from the roof of the building and into a vat of steaming industrial oil.

The singer explained that it took a considerable amount of time before they could retrieve his colleague from the oil which was used to harden Indomie noodles before packaging.

Bella Shmurda said he made a life-changing decision on the spot by immediately taking off his work clothes and shoes, announcing that he could no longer continue working at the factory.

“It was like a Saturday morning. I went to work. We started working already. We just heard everybody screaming that someone fell into hot oil. He was cleaning the roof, so he fell down. In the factory, there is this oil that the Indomie [noodles] pass through to get hard because it is actually soft. It will pass through the oil to get hard, then it will come inside the nylon, and then you will pack it inside the packet.

“So, the guy fell inside the oil. It took long before they brought him out. Guy, him don fry. Omo, that day ehn, the clothes wey dem dey give us, I just off am, off their shoe, I just dey go. I said I no dey work again,” he said.
