Combine ground white pepper, suya spice, paprika, ginger and garlic paste, tomato puree, vegetable oil, chicken stock powder, and chopped spring onions in a mixing bowl to create a marinade.

Marinate chicken in the mixture for about 10 minutes (or up to 30 minutes in the fridge).

Preheat the grill or barbecue before placing the chicken on it.

Place the marinated chicken on the grill, ensuring to monitor it closely to prevent burning.

Move the chicken around on the grill to ensure even cooking, transferring pieces from the hotter middle to the cooler sides as needed.

Once the chicken is almost done, add sweet corn to the grill, placing it in the middle where it is hottest.

Grill the corn for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally until it changes color from pale to bright yellow, indicating it is cooked.

Remove the chicken from the grill after about 30 minutes and the corn after about 15 minutes, ensuring the corn is not burnt.

Serve the grilled chicken and corn, optionally with any sauce of your choice.
