Hilda Baci Plans to Cook the World’s Biggest Pot of Jollof Rice in Lagos
Nigerian celebrity chef Hilda Baci is set to return to the spotlight with another bold challenge by cooking the largest pot of Jollof rice ever made. The record attempt is scheduled for September 12, 2025, at Muri Okunola Park, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The star chef, who captured global attention in 2023 with her marathon cooking challenge, revealed that this new project has been on her mind for nearly two years. According to her, the idea started as a dream to showcase Jollof rice on a grand scale, and now it’s about to become reality.
At the heart of the plan is a specially designed pot, six metres wide and six metres tall, big enough to hold thousands of portions of Jollof. Videos of the pot’s construction have already gone viral online, with fans marveling at the size and creativity behind it. Also, Hilda teamed up with Gino to make the project possible.
To ensure everything goes smoothly, Hilda and her team recently carried out a test run. The practice session gave them a chance to figure out how such a huge meal will be cooked, stirred, and served on the big day.
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has reacted to the recent abduction incident in Oyo State.
It can be recalled that schools were attacked by armed men, with some teachers and students reportedly taken. Some people were also killed during the attack.
CAN cried out on behalf of the public, stating “It is intolerable, disgraceful and utterly unacceptable that Nigerian children can no longer sit safely in classrooms without the fear of being kidnapped by armed gangs.”
The organisation also stated that Nigerians are tired of constantly mourning and questioning when something will finally be done to stop the violence.
The Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, has revealed that seven teachers were abducted following a recent attack on a school in the state.
It was also shared that the number of students taken is still being investigated.
The governor further revealed that some people were killed during the attack and abduction.
He also added “With the pressure on the terrorists and the bandits in the North-West, they will keep moving southward.”
“When you have pressure in one place, we must be prepared on this side to either repel or neutralise any terrorists fleeing the pressure points.”
