The Guinness World Record holder revealed that her father’s sudden departure from her life was the only thing she had against him.
The remarkable Nigerian restaurateur and chef Hilda Baci has opened out about her difficult relationship with her father and how he disowned her.
The Guinness World Record holder revealed in a recent interview on the Tea with Tay podcast that her sole complaint about her father, Effiong Bassey Edem, is that he abruptly vanished from her childhood.
She claimed that although her father had been in her and her siblings’ lives for years, things had taken a bad turn after a heated dispute broke out between him and their mother.
She clarified that she was deeply affected by her father’s abrupt departure, particularly as she and her older brother were about to receive their university degrees.
Hilda claimed that she didn’t understand why her father had stopped funding their education after helping them through nursery school, high school, and the first few years of their university study.
Hilda remembered a difficult day when she talked to her father about issues pertaining to school. But when he answered the phone and basically disowned her over the phone—playing the “I’m not your dad” card—she was given a harsh shock.
