Cooking With GameChangers is back with another sizzling Episode! The kitchen is alive again.
This episode features a keenly contested cook-off between Jumoke Dada, founder of Taeillo a leading furniture-making brand, and Damilola Emmanuel, the General Manager of Lagos State Waterways Authority (LASWA).
These GameChangers will compete for the title of “Ultimate GameChanger” as they create their versions of “Puff Puff & Gizdodo” which is a core part of the Lagos party scene hence the “owanbe” episode tag.
Daniel Etim-Effiong, the show’s host is decked in a blue iconic agbada look by Deji & Kola. Daniel was quite generous on this episode by lending our GameChangers a helping hand in the kitchen. You’ll have to watch the show to see how this panned out.
Judges M.I Abaga and Kaffy who pulled showstopping traditional looks to the kitchen are back alongside Captain Toba and are once again charged with the arduous task of watching, tasting and judging the GameChangers’ performance. This is a must-watch episode!
