To this end, Chase Sapphire, a line of credit cards in the US in partnership with Chef Eros, launched a 60-second video campaign called “Taste of West Africa” featuring the actor and other celebrities, including WNBA player Chiney Ogwumike, former NBA player Pops Mensah Bonsu, musician and producer Sarz, actor and DJ Tony Okungbowa, and actor Michael Oloyede.
Chef Eros served an array of exquisite African dishes, but when the almighty Jollof Rice was brought to the table, Michael immediately asked, ‘So what Jollof rice is the best?’ Complex Magazine quotes Stanley Lumax, Executive Director of Brand Marketing at Chase, saying, “This spot shows an unscripted conversation that gives both those familiar and those curious an authentic look at the ongoing debate on who makes the best Jollof. More significantly, it leaves room for unity, which is the important takeaway beyond all the debate.”Historians believe the dish originated in Senegal and Gambia during colonial rule in West Africa between 1860 and 1940.
