A Lagos-based caterer, Theresa Sappor, has shared how she prepared Nigerian jollof rice for American online streamer iShowSpeed. She recently credited holy spirit for her cooking, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, a customer who had never visited Lagos Island before actually came to her restaurant to eat the jollof rice she made for iShowSpeed.
Sappor added that the viral moment has since transformed her business and increased patronage at her restaurant.
Her words, “This Jollof rice, na Holy Spirit help me cook am. I’m still in shock. Social media get power. Whether we like it or not, Nigerians have good food.
She said she has never stepped a foot into Freedom Park, but she came in because of iShowSpeed. We prepared the Jollof rice that iShowSpeed ate when he came to Nigeria. I tell anybody anywhere that I have the best cook in the world. I’ve been cooking since I was 12 years old. My mother-in-law is a caterer, so I went back to it. I really love cooking.
Her husband added, “While he was eating it, over one million people were watching. Lots of expatriates visit this place. They want egusi and fufu. They enjoy it and come back for more.”
WOW.
