• Aren’t you tired of eating plain Indomie and boiled eggs all the time? Try something different for once in your life, we beg you. You can start by trying out some of the customized recipes available at Indomie cafĂ© listed below. You’re welcome.

    Africana 

    Take a break from bell peppers and tomatoes in your indomie today. Dig deep into your inner African side instead, with some ugwu and dried fish to spice it up. Your ancestors shall be proud.

    Frizzled Eggs

    This combo is from heaven because it entails eggs, indomie and fried plantain. What more can a person ask for? If you’re the type of person that loves colourful food, you can ask for some vegetables inside.

    Prawn Mie

    A meal I’d try because I’m obsessed with prawns. Try this and you’ll never eat plain noodles again.

    Indomie pepper soup 

    This meal is especially perfect for the cold weather when you feel like taking in something hot to warm yourself up, but you don’t want the regular old pepper soup. Spicy!

    Wok Delight

    If you feel like eating Chinese stir-fry or something close to it, this is the meal to try. Shredded chicken, bell peppers and soy sauce are the major ingredients in it. It doesn’t even feel like you’re eating noodles when you try this at Indomie cafĂ©.

    Indomie Polpette (Meatballs)

    Find your way to Italy by requesting for meatballs in your noodles. The best part is that you can add as many meatballs as you want.

    Ofada 

    I just want to say thank you to Indomie Cafe for coming up with the idea of Indomie with ofada sauce. Indomie, ofada and plenty of meat. Take the term “chop life” to a different level.

  • What says fashion and technology if not this wonderful merger between smartphone giant TECNO and the African Bad Girl herself Tiwa Savage. The smartphone giant announced Tiwa Savage as the latest ambassador joining their family on the 21st of June 2022.

    In reaction, Tiwa Savage also replied on her social media pages, where she confirmed herself to the family and referred to the company as the coolest brand in the history of all brands. On that particular assertion, we definitely agree.

    Tiwa Savage is a walking fashion statement; everything she says, wears, or promotes becomes popular as a result of her influence. On the other hand, TECNO is well-known for producing smartphones that are fashionable, sophisticated, cutting-edge, and reasonably priced, all of which provide its customers with complete delight.

    If you need more evidence of this, consider the fact that the camera functions on all TECNO smartphones are state of the art and have enabled content producers to make films and photographs that are clear and crisp. It should come as no surprise that these two entities Tiwa Savage and TECNO can work together to give their fans the best.

    Following the debut of TECNO’s most recent smartphone, the Camon 19, at the Rockefeller centre in New York City, this statement has been made. The Camon 19 series has upgraded features that are distinct from those of its predecessor, and it introduces TECNO’s first 64MP camera, which offers remarkable features for taking photographs in low light conditions. To summarize, the Camon 19 is a phone that is packed with incredible features that would provide any user with a creative boost in their lives.

    One of the reasons why the most recent brand ambassador described the brand as “cool” is because the brand makes sure that it meets the desire for innovation that its customers have.

    Everyone is really happy about this, and they cannot wait to see the new and exciting things that she will bring to TECNO.

  • oraimo continues to expand its horizon in the international smart accessory as its state-of-the-art earpods, the FreePods Pro has won the 2022 iF Design Award in the Product Design category.

    The iF International Design Award has become a global symbol for outstanding design and a badge of excellence, quality, and efficiency. The award has a rigorous selection criterion with strict screening standards that examines the idea, form, function, differentiation, and impact of the product. oraimo’s FreePods Pro rose amidst spirited competition to beat almost 11,000 other brands and products from 57 different countries, to claim the spotlight in the Product Design category.

    The FreePods Pro captivated the hearts of the award’s independent jury with its design aesthetic and innovation. The device’s finely crafted surface has an eye-catching color surface and a sleek metallic finish that is made possible by an eco-friendly coating process known as non-conductive vacuum metallization (NCYM). This coating protects the earpods from abrasions and spills to ensure that it is kept attractive. 

    Asides from its radical design, the FreePods Pro also comes with cutting-edge features. Its pro-hybrid active noise cancellation (ANC) technology makes for a quiet and fully immersive listening experience that cuts out background noise and allows the user to listen to music, watch movies and enjoy time outdoors without distractions. This noise cancellation technology is paired with a transparency feature that lets in ambient sound so that users can have some awareness of their environment. 

    Another outstanding feature is the Havy Bass; oraimo’s proprietary sound-tuning technology to increase low-frequency for deep and powerful bass in the music. The FreePods Pro also delivers noise suppression in calls, long playtime, and an automatic pairing pop-up that makes it well-loved by its users.

    The oraimo group professes a belief in the spirit of exploring to change the way people see the world, and that is most apparent with its line of products which employ innovation and creativity in offering millions of smartphone users quality and superior smart accessories at great prices. This innovation in design and user-friendliness is why recent Canalys’ data has shown oraimo to be the number 1 True Wireless Stereo (TWS) brand in Africa.

    oraimo is present in 50+ countries around the world including Nigeria with over 200 million users.
