Ghanaians on Twitter descend heavily on Hilda Baci for her comments on Ghana Jollof
Ghanaians on social media have descended heavily on Nigerian Chef, Hilda Baci, after she referred to one of the country’s favorite dish, “Jollof,” as not “flavourful.”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OvIXULCR4qs
The Chef made her first visit to the United Kingdom recently and while speaking on a podcast expressed her disappointment at Ghanaian Jollof, calling it unflavorful.
According to Hilda, Nigerian Jollof is better than Ghana’s because it lacks flavour.
“Nigerian Jollof is better than Ghanaian Jollof. I’ve been to Ghana, I’ve eaten their Jollof. I’ve done a competition with a Ghanaian chef. For him, that was his best representation of Ghanaian Jollof and I have seen the recipe, not one…,” she expressed.
“Let me tell you because I wasn’t there and I don’t have a lot of information so I can’t say why this is but with Nigerian Jollof, Nigerians don’t play about flavour building. We’re very intentional about building flavour,” she stated.

Explaining why she thinks Nigerian Jollof is better, Hilda stated;
“Ghanaians tend to make their Jollof rice…the major base is more the paste than the Jollof mix which is what you make yourself and that goes a long way in ensuring that the flavour comes out great. Ghanaians don’t smoke their Jollof rice.”
Hilda’s comments made it to Twitter, and her Ghanaian fans have expressed their disappointment at her comments.
According to some users, they expected more from the Chef since they rallied behind and supported her in her quest to becoming a Guinness World Record holder.

First of all, the gentleman you had the competition with wasn’t a CHEF!! I was one of the judges
Mostly importantly, I am disappointed in this statement because everyone supported you regardless of which country we came from or which jollof we make. https://t.co/16H6EccIIo

Oh… but why would Hilda Baci do this comparison when she herself knows Ghanaian jollof is the best. Nasty Blaq is a living testimony. She should go and ask. pic.twitter.com/Zkuj9pOKMb

Sarkodie cooks better jollof than this girl … and he's not a chef.
The average Ghanaian auntie's jollof bangs harder than any chef-cooked Naija jollof. Even the mass-produced funeral jollof is better.

I personally think the reason why Nigerians always feel the need to attack other African countries unprovoked, is due to their conspicuous inferiority complex which is rooted deep in main character syndrome. Lets delve deeper….. https://t.co/WNkZLILDru
