During a podcast appearance, Hilda Baci claimed that having tasted Ghanaian Jollof, it falls short of the quality seen in Nigerian Jollof.

"Nigerian Jollof is actually better than Ghanaian Jollof. I've travelled to Ghana, eaten their Jollof, competed with a Ghanaian chef who created his best Jollof, and seen the recipe," she said.

Can someone tell Hilda Baci that her Record in the book is only the most extended cook, not the best chef, she should never compare Ghanaian jollof to Nigerian jollof.
