Highlights of Hilda Baci’s Giant Pot of Jollof Rice Event in Lagos
Nigerian celebrity chef Hilda Baci once again proved her flair for pulling crowds after hosting a special jollof rice event in Lagos. Known for her Guinness World Record-breaking cook-a-thon in 2023, Hilda gathered fans, food lovers, and well-wishers around what became a massive feast built around Nigeria’s most beloved dish.
The event, which took place at Amore Gardens in Lekki, saw Hilda and her team prepare a giant pot of jollof rice that quickly became the star of the day. With music, dancing, and a vibrant display of Nigerian culture, the gathering turned into more than just a food festival.
Attendees were treated not only to plates of smoky, flavorful jollof but also to a lively atmosphere featuring DJs, entertainers, and performances that kept the energy high. Social media buzzed throughout the day, as photos and videos of the giant pot circulated online, drawing admiration from people across Nigeria and beyond.
Hilda made sure to interact with fans, take photos, and speak about the importance of food as a unifying force in Nigeria. She also highlighted her passion for showcasing Nigerian cuisine on a global stage, noting that dishes like jollof rice deserve recognition far beyond West Africa. The event also had a charitable angle. Portions of the food were shared with communities in need.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
