Hilda Baci Reminds Nigerians Who She Is, But Forgot to Add She's Married With Two Kids.

Hilda Baci got so offended when local store attendants didn't recognize her and made her join the plantain queue that she dropped her entire resume online, just to remind everyone that she's a 3x Guinness World Record holder!

In other news, Hilda Baci has decided that if the internet is going to talk about her, they will at least get the facts right.

The celebrity chef took to social media to reintroduce herself amid the ongoing record label drama involving her boyfriend, Dapper, and his former signees Shallipopi, Seyi Vibez, and T.I Blaze. As social media users continue to make claims about the source of her wealth and even link her BBL to artists' money, she wrote:

"Hilda Effiong Bassey CEO, MyFoodByHilda Founder, Hilda Bassey Academy (Africa's most successful online class) Proud Brand Ambassador: Gino, Bama, Viva, Aquafina, Lush Hair & Scanfrost 3x Guinness World Record Holder 2027 Guinness World Records Icon. Anyways keep streaming NEPA by Dapper on all digital platforms". 

(yimu like Seyi Vibez)

Her post comes as conversations surrounding her personal life, business success, and relationship with Dapper continue to generate reactions online. Dapper has been accused of unpaid royalties, contract forgery, and financial misconduct by his ex-artists. 

(punches the air like Shallipopi)

But here is what the blogs did not tell you.

The real reason Hilda posted her credentials is not to shut down the rumours about her BBL or the source of her wealth. It is because she recently went to a local store to buy plantain, and the attendants did not recognize her. She walked in expecting to be treated like a celebrity, but instead she was asked to wait in line like everyone else. The humiliation was too much to bear, so she went home, opened her notes app, and typed out her entire biography to remind the world, and herself, that she is still Hilda Baci. 

Edgar doesn't lie.
