#JollofGate – The Jamie Oliver Jollof Saga – A West African Food Blogger’s Opinion
Jamie Oliver cooked Jollof Rice and the West African internet community reacted in a way that shocked the world. For those who do not know; Jollof is a religion, it's a dish so sacred it should have a national holiday.

It is not surprising that everyone expected me to have a similar reaction to that of the thousands of people talking about this issue, I am sorry to disappoint everyone but I am of a different viewpoint and here is why:
