Chef Hilda Effiong Bassey popularly known as Hilda Baci, has revealed that her father, Effiong Bassey Edem disowned her over the phone.
She disclosed this in an interview on the ‘Tea with Tay’ podcast, hosted by Taymesan.
The Guiness Wold Record holder said her father had been present in their lives since they were kids but she said that things changed when a huge argument between him and her mother had an impact on the children.
What truly cut deep for her was her father’s abrupt abandonment, particularly when she and her brother were on the brink of completing their university studies.
She couldn’t wrap her head around why he withdrew his support for their education, especially after having funded their academic journey through nursery, secondary school, and the early years of their tertiary education.
Remembering a heart-breaking moment she rang up her father to talk about her school expenses and to her surprise, he picked up and immediately asked her “Who’s your daddy?”.
Regrettably, her father never returned as opposed to her initial happy ending moment of both parents settling her rift and coming back to live as a big family.
