Did Labpur Party’s presidential candidate in the February election speak in tongue concerning Hilda Baci’s victory?

H might not have spoken in tongue but he indeed spoke in parables.

That is when he congratulated Hilda Baci over her recognition by the Guinness World Record sages, for her 100-hour marathon cooking.

Peter Obi joined other Nigerians to congratulate her – but with words that suggested that the victory that some (especially politicians) are clinging onto did not come from transparent efforts.

Meanwhile, Obi is battling President Tinubu over the result of the February 25 election which, he believes he, and not Tinubu, won.

Obi had noted: “Congratulations to you Hilda Baci @hildabacicooks on breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking time by an individual.

“You believed in your vision, you persevered till the end, and you have now carved your name in the golden books of history and have brought great honour to our nation.

“You have, by your victory, reminded us that the path through which one attains victory in any endeavour must be excellent. By towing the path of hard work and determination, you broke a world record.”

Recall that the 26-year-old Nigerian chef began on Thursday 11 May and continued through to Monday 15 May, cooking over 100 pots of food during her four-day kitchen stint.
