Just in: Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci, breaks Guinness World Record in cooking
Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey, popularly known as Hilda Baci, has put the country in the world map of cooking.
The 27-year-old psychology graduate on Monday morning broke the Guinness World Record for the “longest cooking marathon by an individual”.
The chef smashed the 87 hours 45 minutes record set by Lata Tondon.
Hilda went into the competition on Thursday at 4pm.
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos on Sunday visited Hilda to cheer her on.
She was thrilled to be paid a visit by the governor on Sunday afternoon at Amore Gardens, in the Lekki area of Lagos State.
“I showed up to support Chef Hilda Baci, in her quest to break the Guinness World Record @GWR for the longest time spent cooking by an individual,” Sanwo-Olu tweeted.
“Her dedication, passion for cooking as well as her desire to put our rich culture on the map by not only exhibiting our food but also the resilience, determination, energy and team spirit that has come to be known as the spirit of Lagos and indeed Nigeria is truly remarkable.”
Hilda carries on despite having broken the record as she aims to cook for 96 hours, setting a new world record as the first human on earth to spend such an amount of time cooking.
She continues to receive support from government officials, celebrities, clerics, and other well-meaning Nigerians.
Nigerians stood by her despite a heavy downpour in the wee hours of Monday.

Why I won’t leave my husband if I find him cheating – Actress Chinwe

Why I won’t leave my husband if I find him cheating – Actress Chinwe
Popular Nollywood actress Isaac Chinwe has shared her perspective on the sensitive topic of infidelity in marriage. The actress, who recently welcomed a child, told Saturday Sun in an interview that cheating is not enough reason to end her marriage.
“I don’t think I can leave my husband just because he cheated. If you love me enough, you won’t cheat repeatedly. If it’s a one-time mistake and I find out, I might forgive him, hoping and expecting it won’t happen again. If you must cheat, keep a clean slate and don’t do it under my nose. If I find out, I will be upset. However, if he’s a serial cheat, I might leave him because I feel disrespected,” she said.
The actress explained that while she would be disappointed and hurt by infidelity, her decision to stay or leave would depend on several factors, including the severity of the offence, her husband’s sincerity, and the circumstances surrounding the cheating incident.

She said, “If my husband made a mistake and had an affair, he should be honest with me. His explanation, sincerity, and truthfulness would help me decide if he would do it again.”
Chinwe concluded by offering advice to other women on maintaining a healthy marriage. She stressed the importance of love, communication, and understanding. “Most men might cheat, and knowing this beforehand helps you balance your marriage. If you’re lucky to get a man who doesn’t cheat or if you have no evidence of him cheating, don’t look for trouble. Stop going over your man’s phone. Sometimes, women’s attitudes can push a man to cheat, so know how to balance it,” she advised.

Portable shades celebrities for not donating to help TG Omori
Controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has criticised Nigerian celebrities for their lack of financial support towards the medical bills of music video director TG Omori, who is currently battling health issues.
According to reports, TG Omori recently underwent a kidney transplant in Lagos, which was unsuccessful as his body rejected the donated kidney from one of his brothers.
While some celebrities have posted messages of support on social media following the failed surgery, Portable have called them out for not contributing financially to his medical expenses.

In a video shared on his Instastory, Portable expressed his disappointment with the entertainment industry, labelling it as being filled with “fake love.”
He called out Nigerian celebrities for donating to controversial cross-dresser Bobrisky during his legal troubles but not extending the same generosity to TG Omori, who is gravely ill.
“TG Omori has a kidney problem, and celebrities are not donating money or a kidney for him, but Victor Osimhen and others donated money for Bobrisky, who adds no value. The industry is full of fake love,” Portable lamented.
