Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has extended his congratulations to celebrity chef Hilda Baci and food brand Gino after they entered the record books with the largest serving of Nigerian-style Jollof rice.
Atiku described the accomplishment as more than a culinary milestone, noting that it reflects the ingenuity and determination of Nigerians to excel on the global stage.
He said the recognition is “yet another reminder that our people can break records, set standards, and inspire the world,” adding that such achievements continue to strengthen national pride.
The record-breaking event has further spotlighted Nigerian Jollof, a dish long celebrated across West Africa, and placed it on an international platform through the efforts of Baci and her collaborators.
Atiku urged more Nigerians to take inspiration from the feat and continue to showcase the country’s culture, creativity, and resilience in diverse fields.
