Flashback
It all started with a tweet from South African rapper Cassper Nyovest. Nyovest, whiles in Ghana hinted that he couldn’t tell which of these two countries’ Nigeria and Ghana’s jollof he loves best.
“Don’t know if I love Ghanaian or Nigerian jollof rice more…. what’s your preference?” he asked his followers on Twitter.
Davido replied his tweet by saying, “Looooool na we get the sauce oo”, literally meaning Nigerians cook the best jollof.
Cassper responded to Davido by adding, “Hahaha… Had some lit jollof at Davido’s house actually. Called him the next day like WHA??? @iam_Davido,” he tweeted.
But Sarkodie, who was definitely not amused, replied the tweets by saying, “Forget bro … you had no choice … You need options … hit me up I can even make you the best jollof cook via voice note.”
“No need for this bro just put me and Davido in the kitchen,” he added.
However, the Davido ran from kitchen challenge and rather called for a music challenge in the studio.
“Forget this one let’s do gbedu Competiton… make studio turn kitchen lmao,” he said in a tweet.
Back to the present;
But interestingly, Yvonne Okoro, who is a Ghanaian actress of Nigerian descent has waded into the ‘Jollof War’. waded into the argument with her open invitation to the two musicians to come on her cooking show to settle their difference.
“Helloooo….Come to my kitchen…What do you say???Let’s see who WINS @sarkodie @davidoofficial #diningwithcooks&braggarts,” she said on Instagram and Twitter.
