Hilda Baci has already broken Lata Tondon’s record for the longest individual cooking marathon.
Tondon gave Hilda Baci a shout-out on Instagram and wished her the best in her message.
The expedition, which began on May 11th in Lagos state, saw Hilda Baci go through various levels of stress and emotional suffering in order to break the existing record. Tondon set a record in 2019 when she cooked for 87 hours and 45 minutes in India, but Baci has cooked for more than 87 hours and counting.
“All the best, Hilda,” she captioned the video. I hope to see you on Official soon.
The restuarer has continued to receive a wave of support from government officials, celebrities, clerics, and other well-meaning Nigerians.
This is even as Nigerians stood by her despite a heavy downpour in the wee hours of Monday.
