Nigerian celebrity chef, Hilda Baci, has revealed that she was seeing her monthly flow throughout the four days of her cooking marathon that was held in Lagos.
Baci revealed in her recent interview with TV3 Ghana that she was uncomfortable as the period almost made her attempt to break the record futile.
She said her monthly period has always been a horrible time for her and the stress made it even worst, adding that her father was really worried.
“I was on my period the entire time and that made it extremely difficult and extra hard. What that meant was it took away from the time that I had to rest.
“I was trying to rack up because I get 5 minutes every time I completed 1 hour. So if I stand for one hour, I had 5 minutes to rest. And I still had to do my medical checks. God bless my medical team.
“They were on the ground. Because I was on my period I had to take a shower every single break I had. If I had 30 minutes I had to take a shower in that time because I had to change.
“My dad was worried because I have horrible cramps. Like really horrible cramps. So pushing through that means I can conquer things in this life.”
Apparently irked by the revelation, Nigerians on social media have dragged Hilda Baci for making people eat food perceived to be unhygienic.
