Nigeria Jollof rice is declared the best after beating Cameroon Jollof, Ghana Jollof, and Sierra Leone Jollof, thereby emerging as the winner of the first-ever Jollof Hackathon in the US.
Ms. Atinuke Ogunsalu of Queensway Restaurant & Catering in Maryland, US, secured the win for Nigeria with her special jollof rice meal.
She carted away US$1000 coworking services from event partner I/O Spaces and an opportunity to become a Chef at Jollof Caviar; an upscale African Fusion Restaurant Opening in Washington DC in 2019.
While speaking with TheAfricanDream.net, the newly crowned JollofFestival champion Ms. Ogunsalu said she was glad to have carried the day for Nigeria, and felt that people can now actually jump off the fence and try Nigerian Jollof for themselves instead of being prejudiced.
