I Used To Be Destitute, Says Chef Hilda Baci

Hilda Baci, a Nigerian chef who recently broke the record for the longest cooking session completed by a single person, has talked about her previous difficulties and her future goals.


It should be mentioned that Baci spent 100 hours in the kitchen to break the previous mark, which was achieved by Indian chef Lata Tondon in 2019.


The chef said in an interview with TVC that she had previously been homeless but now aims to grow her business by educating students around the world as she discussed her plans in response to the media exposure she received during her cooking marathon.


She said: "I need young women to see that there's more to them than society's stereotypes. There's always that narrative that you can't make it without having others create a platform for you.


"I'm saying this from an informed place because I used to be like that. For me, I needed to keep doing things with myself to show people that they can win as well. You can have a business, start cooking from home, and build that business properly to the point where you can open an outlet, expand that outlet, and branch out. But you need to do your due diligence. It's not easy.


"Many people see this buzz now and think I dropped from the sky. They didn't know I was homeless at some point. There's an entire phase that got me here, and I am not even done."
