On Wednesday afternoon, Lagosians were treated to a scene unlike any they had ever witnessed. Around 1:00 PM, at the iconic Eko Hotel roundabout, a curious sight stopped traffic and turned heads: two of Nigeria’s biggest streamers, Peller and Jarvis, and ace comedian Kenny Blaq, were casually grilling turkey and frying yam, with branded equipment and a large sign that read “More Food is Coming”.
As if that weren’t enough, the same bizarre yet fascinating spectacle occurred again at around 4:00 PM at the busy Ipodo Market in Ikeja. Nollywood icon Odunlade Adekola and Nollywood ace Jide Kene Achufusi were spotted preparing food for the public in the same casual manner. The phrase “More Food is Coming” quickly went viral, trending across all social media platforms, leaving Lagos buzzing with curiosity and excitement. The moment was captured and shared by thousands, and speculation about the true purpose of these high-profile appearances ran wild.
The mystery deepened when popular Nigerian-Canadian promoter Abiola Oderinde, also known as Hunter of Hunter TV Africa, was spotted at the event, accompanied by his business partner, Olanrenwaju Babalola, a renowned Canadian mortgage professional & real estate investor. Both were seen chatting and enjoying the activities, which led to even more rumors regarding an upcoming major event.
A glimpse of the back of some shirts worn by participants seemed to hint at a larger event, with the words “Naija Food Fest” clearly visible. Could this be the announcement Lagos has been waiting for? The city is abuzz with anticipation.
“We believe in celebrating what brings people together—those unforgettable moments that ignite joy, spark connections, and leave lasting memories. We’re working on something exciting that’s going to surprise and delight you, something that’s all about passion, creativity, and a shared experience unlike anything you’ve seen before. Stay tuned as we prepare to unveil this extraordinary experience. Trust us, it’s worth the wait,” said Abiola Oderinde, Hunter TV Africa.
“I’ve always believed in initiatives that not only excite but also bring people together in meaningful ways. What we’re about to reveal is something truly special—an experience that will captivate and leave a lasting impression. We’re incredibly proud to be part of this journey and confident that it will resonate with many. The buzz has already started, and we’re excited to see how this will unfold. It’s going to be unforgettable,” added Olarenwaju Babalola, Real Estate Investor.
After successful collaborations on events like Asake Live in Canada, Seyi Vibez Live in Canada, Basketmouth’s Cancel Culture tour, K1 De Ultimate’s USA invasion, and the K1 De Ultimate New Year Fest, it’s clear that Abiola Oderinde and his team have a knack for creating unforgettable experiences. With the recent series of mysterious events, the speculation is stronger than ever: Could this all be leading up to the launch of the highly anticipated Naija Food Fest? The excitement in Lagos is palpable, and no one seems to know for sure—yet.
As the phrase “More Food is Coming” continues to trend, the question on everyone’s lips remains: what exactly are we about to experience?
