Nigerian media personality Oseni Rufai has praised chef Hilda Baci for her remarkable achievement in preparing the largest pot of Jollof rice during a record-breaking cooking event. Rufai described this feat as a true reflection of the Nigerian spirit.
In a post on his X page on Saturday, Rufai addressed critics who claimed that the event distracts from pressing issues such as poverty and hunger. He stated, “Hilda Baci is the true reflection of the great Nigerian spirit. For those saying her feat is a distraction from the poverty and hunger, I disagree; it’s a testament to the fact that Nigeria can break records. We can resume talking about the bad governance tomorrow, but today, we celebrate Hilda Baci, today we celebrate Nigeria. We must hold our leaders accountable.”
The event, held at Eko Hotel in Lagos, attracted massive crowds and served thousands of attendees, showcasing the rich culinary talent and culture of Nigeria. Hilda Baci first gained international recognition in 2023 after her Guinness World Record cook-a-thon.
