The mother of popular Nigerian chef Hilda Baci revealed that her daughter’s attempt to cook the largest pot of Nigerian Jollof rice will feed 10,000 people, as she shares new details.
The event, set for September 12, 2025, is already generating buzz on social media.
The news was shared on TikTok by Hilda Baci, where her mother spoke about her daughter’s upcoming record-breaking feat.
According to Hilda’s mother, the pot will be a massive 6 by 6 meters wide, 1.1 meters high, and 1.3 meters thick, a truly unprecedented size.
In her own words, Hilda’s mother said: “What is going on, are you current? Do you know what is going on on the Internet? Are you aware that Hilda Baci is going to break another record with the help of Gino?”
“You know Gino truly cares. This is going to be taking place on the 12th of September, Hilda will be cooking the biggest pot of Nigerian Jollof rice.”
“I’m talking about 6 by 6 meters wide, 1.1 meters high, and 1.3 meters thick. I’m talking about a kind of pot that’ll be feeding 10,000 people—who does that? Come 12th of September, Hilda will be getting it done with the help of Gino.”
Hilda, clearly moved by her mother’s support, shared the video on her own page, expressing her gratitude. She wrote: “Guys!! This morning I woke up to the sweetest surprise from my mum 😭❤️ She went all out: printed shirts, teamed up with a content creator, and came up with her own unique way to promote me.”
“This is the woman I’ve had by my side my whole life. My biggest cheerleader. My forever supporter. Not just for me, but for all her many children (and trust me, there are a lot of us 😅).”
“So when people ask me, ‘Hilda, how do you come up with these crazy, incredible ideas?’ my answer is simple: I got it from my mother.”
“And now guess what? Her daughter, yes me 😏, is about to cook the largest pot of Jollof rice the world has ever seen with my amazing @Gino Nigeria.”
“I need you all to pull up in your numbers. Let’s make this historic. Let’s make my mum proud again.”
