The massive pot, which is set to break records again, has now been transferred to Eko Hotel, the venue for tomorrow’s highly anticipated event.

The event, named the “Gino World Jollof Festival,” will be a celebration of West African cuisine, music, and culture.

The festival is free to attend and will feature live performances.

Baci, who shot to international fame with her 2023 record for the longest cooking marathon, has described the new project as more than just an attempt to break another record, framing it as a cultural event for all to enjoy.
