Renowned chef, Hilda Baci, has come under heavy criticism following allegations that she demanded a fee of N25,000 for meet-and-greet sessions in Abuja.
Hilda Baci made headlines on May 15, 2023, when news broke that she potentially broke the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon. The previous record of 87 hours and 45 minutes was held by Chef Lata Tondon from Rewa, India, back in 2019.
However, it is important to note that the Guinness World Record has not yet officially confirmed Baci as the new record holder for the longest cooking marathon, despite her remarkable achievement.
The Akwa Ibom-born chef has been involved in several controversial actions that have sparked criticism from Nigerians.
Recent reports suggest that Hilda Baci has allegedly been charging a significant amount of N25,000 for personal meet-ups in Abuja. According to these reports, individuals interested in a brief encounter with her will need to pay this fee for a scheduled event on June 24, 2023.
While Hilda Baci has not addressed these allegations publicly, many Nigerians have expressed their disappointment and concerns regarding what they perceive as an exorbitant fee to meet a chef.
