A LIB reader sent in the pics and wrote...
This was late yesterday evening at about 9.40pm at GDC in Port Harcourt.
I was sitting at the eatery, when we got a glimpse of it, terrorizing
everyone in there running all over the place, typical Nigerians, people
were still ordering food, attendants paid no mind to it and everyone
was laughing, a man and his kids were making a video, no one was
concerned about their health but who am I kidding, I had a good laugh
about it all with my friend and enjoyed our great country Nigeria for
having no care about health safety.
See more pics after the cut...
Ok #bright bravo#

DeleteAnd to think yesterday was World Health Day, themed around vector-borne diseases like that rat. We need to step up our game as far as health and health issues are concerned. In civilized climes, that cinema would have been temporarily shut until the owners get a clean bill of health. It is well.
ReplyDeleteHahahahaha. The rat ghas find means of survival nah. Even if na to enter one lady bag or a guy's trousers. That won't be funny o.

ReplyDeleteGod help us to b reali concerned abt d tins dt matter, later we will b blaming govt of poor mangement while we ourselves do nothing in our environment
ReplyDeletei have seen them too,so i can confirm that the story is true!!!! i saw them last year sef,running around the cinema hall as if they paid to watch the movie with us !!! GDC should please do sth about their hygiene,its really embarrassing and a shame that a building that looks so nice from the outside is so filthy on the inside.the cleaners don't even clean the halls in between movies.
ReplyDeletei was there also, this is not how it happened. I inquired from management staff there and was told it was a general pest and rodent extermination. which has been going on for a while so it explains why the rodents were coming out. Linda i think you should try and do a better job when gathering facts for your blog stories. Love your blog though.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, consigned?!
ReplyDeleteLinda dont u have rats in ur house?
ReplyDeleteThis is a small rat compared to what I saw in galleria...the biggest rat I av ever seen.My fear of rats made me stop going thr,was sooo terrified n cldnt scream or sthg cs a movie was on....
ReplyDeleteRatatouille wants 2 watch a movie, viewers put ur feet up, lwkmd.
ReplyDeleteDey shuld stop eatn coz Rat wey don scent d fud cum 2 eat too? Oboy go slip or drink kaikai jare,mak I hear beta newz
ReplyDeleteSmh...you can imagine
ReplyDeleteIt's 'concerned' not 'consigned'. Ur spelling is more of an issue than this little rat. Go back to primary school!
ReplyDeletePoor thing, nd all it came 2see was a movie bt i guess fate has more 4dis tiny creature nd behold it has become a star. the famous rat ever liveth, welcome to LIB, u r now more famous dan LIBers. Choi Abasi mbok Linda wont kill me o! Genesis Deluxe eatery bad market has just set in LOLz
ReplyDeleteHeheheheh..am nt surprised tho..the last time I was in PH checked the cinema out for the first time..I was highly disappointed..the place was smelling like locust bean factory..in short I had to turn back home..lmao..

ReplyDeleteThis's funny I must say...lol. Ebony-b
ReplyDeletenot true
ReplyDeleteWell..Ramsey Noah was also spotted there last week. Make the rat enjoy abeg..every dog has its day
ReplyDeleteI'm a medical personnel and I know for sure that having rats around places like this is very dangerous.. There's been an outbreak of a disease called 'Lasa Fever' which is spread by this rodent especially through the feaces. Trust me I know and have seen what lasa fever can do to someone exposed to it in minutes. Let's not joke with it. Kill all rodents at sight if possible.
ReplyDeletena normal tin nah.. Rats wey don pursue our cat komot from house.
ReplyDeleteShuuuuu!
ReplyDeletefunny....rat too come see movie....was it killed?
ReplyDeleteHello

ReplyDeleteMy brother, I am as consigned as you are that other Nigerians are not consigned. Lol....... but thanks for bringing this ugly matter to the fore.
ReplyDeleteThis really is an eyesore. I don't like seeing rats in my house talkless of a public place.
ReplyDeleteFreedom of movement.hahahahahahah.
ReplyDeleteSeriously is nt funny
ReplyDeleteOkay
ReplyDeleteIts really sad that Nigerians find this funny, you work into a restaurant and you see a big rat like that, you just imagine what happens in the night when every body is gone and they have the kitchen to them selves. They dance on the food and make a big party out of what u would order the next morning. Our health system or regulatory bodies in charge shud look into these fast food joints. Some of. Them r serving us left our midnight snack from Rats
ReplyDeleteHis gramma no get part2 o.
ReplyDeleteFloniga
This can only happen in Naija,funny tho + did I just see Consigned there?LIBERS and English language sha
ReplyDeleteloooool! as far as it is ph! anything can happen! i bought cake once in park n shop and i saw a fly inside! but that can never happen in park n shop abuja!! ph!! ph!!! loool

ReplyDeleteYou are so ignorant in that your little brain. U can walk around naked in ur house but when u do it out side u wud be termed mad. So Rat in a public environ is a big deal ok in ur house u r allowed to eat with them from d same plate. Zi007
DeleteLooooooool
ReplyDeleteLinda how can I send you a pix of what is happening here in Abi local govt area of cross river state,were the youth are fighting themselves,killing,roasting and eaten humans body part as a sign of bravery..you really need to see it,fighting over a piece of lands nd the governor nd strong political personality are sponsoring them
ReplyDeleteThe word you need is "CONCERNED"
ReplyDeleteThere are rats at the cinma at yaba. Uncountable and even cockroaches. The day me and my friend see rat na so we put leg untop chair wey dey our front till the movie finished. We no even send the people wey sit down for our front.
ReplyDeleteRatouille
ReplyDeleteThis is really terrible! Not a laughing matter at all. Rats carry all sorts of diseases. And if this was outside the country, that establishment would be fined and shut down!
ReplyDeleteIts not only rats oooooo, mosquitoes nko.
ReplyDeletenasty.so was it terrorizing everyone or did no one pay attention you are confusing me bros..
ReplyDeleteLinda, maybe I'll start sending you pictures of events around the country since I have the privilege of always travelling. ....#freelancejournalism
ReplyDeleteEveryone should be 'consigned' whenever they see a rat in a public place....ROTF
ReplyDeleteLinda anytin can happen in nigeria... Rat is everywhr in nigeria.. I culd rememba I spooted a big rat @ d Airtel nigeria head quaters in banana island.... N am very sure u hv rats in ur house self!!!! Abi r u a learner?
ReplyDeleteThese mammal coexist with man in naija..............am not surprised
ReplyDeleteIt seems this Genesis brand has a rat plague going on in every location of theirs because there is a rat infestation at the Lagos branch as well.
ReplyDeleterat is a very common factor in Nigeria. can anybody say truthfully and honestly that they ve never seen rats or cockroaches in their homes?
ReplyDeleteU can blog about rat in Genesis cinema but u refused to blog about Tiwa's issue with the Nigerian police. Hypocrite! If u like, don't post my comment.
ReplyDeletei am conSIGNED abt d.trouble.dis lil guy is goin.to.put hes fellows sneakin arnd #gumEkuteTins
ReplyDeleteWith GDC it's normal cos d rat re d real owner of the place.not surprise cos I hardly watch my movie in peace wen it's 9 to 10pm in d cinema hall.rat evrywere most tyms I il b too scared to watch so I ran out not finishin d movie,same ph o.Linda pls help dis people to buy otapiapia
ReplyDeleteThere are rats evrywere even in som LIbers house too but GDC own is three much dat's wat am saying.
ReplyDeleteNa 2day? D oda day i saw 1 at orange room enugu
ReplyDeleteRatatouille was probably showing or it came to see the rat-Nollywood Ramsey Noah
ReplyDeleteAnd this is news? I beg, i beg, Linda, did you reach them for a comment? True talk. Been going to GDC for years and I do know they fumigate the building once every week and are more health conscious than some other cinemas and food selling places. Cut them some slack i beg! You no get rat for your house? Let he without a house rat cast the first stone!
ReplyDeleteI have been to Genesis Cinemas in Lagos and Port Harcourt and I disagree with the LIBer that said it smells like Locust Beans. Haba! They are conscious of the cinema look. Why do we like to kick people when they have tripped? Na naija way sha.I like Genesis sha. Their staff are always polite and helpful unlike some other cinemas that answer calls and ignore guests. If i say Galle, you can finish it. Anyways, bad belle Linda, post my comment o!
ReplyDeleteRATATOULE......NO BE SO DEM SPELL AM? BYE!
ReplyDeleteeven just seeing it made me cringe! I hate rats with a passion
ReplyDeleteLoll
ReplyDeleteLinda that rat is way to tiny compare to the ones I have been seeing there. Infact behind their sales point/canteen. I told d staffs n all they could do was laugh, one almost climbed my leg when I was getting a movie ticket.
ReplyDeleteReally, you are complaining about rats in Genesis Cinemas? This cinema is 200 percent better than others in terms of hygiene, customer service and cinema business. What about the skinny rabbits wearing suits at silverbird nko? Those ones can't even run because they are hungry looking. I have nothinggood.com to say about that one. Please, leave Genesis alone jare. You won't bad belly the businesses that have problems of degeneration, it is serious businesses that are trying to maintain quality standards that you want to pull down? This linda self. You bias o! Post my comment if you no dey biased!
ReplyDeleteLolz...re yhu sure its not de rat daht even cook de food???..lyk in daht movie RATATULLI...dey shud check dier kitchen maybe...wetin dem de call plenty rat sef..abi na colony,galaxy,league infact english tire me..plenty rat fit de work 4 de kitchen
ReplyDeletePretty funny....
ReplyDeleteLol.
ReplyDeleteI strongly believe that their store house will be filled with rats and cockroaches.
ReplyDeleteEven at Silverbird galleria Abuja...
ReplyDeleteCan any one pls help out with d new UK visa application? cant sign d declaration section on line and cant continue since I have to do that first. Linda help on this biko. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteThe idiot saying there is rat infestation in Lagos as well, Is the GDC in Lagos not in a mall called Palms with other shops/ stores in there including Shoprite? All of a sudden, all of Genesis have rat infestation! Nigerians eh! Lindiwe, publish my comment o!
ReplyDeletehahhaaha lmao!!! Lin u no go kill us with laughter.
ReplyDeleteHey!!! That's Stuart Little....lol
