A Nigerian Version of Come Dine With Me?

There's really no one on #NigerianTwitter that can give us "Come Dine With Me: Nigeria"?

Two years ago, we did a joke-post about reimagining popular cooking shows as Nigerian.

“So this one is a no brainer. Why isn’t it a show already? Nigerians are the undisputed Shade World Champs. Imagine an Igbo woman saying “ndi ofe nnmanu” under her breath after tasting Yoruba stew?”

Looks like someone else was thinking the same thing and actually made it happen.

Come chop with me Naija.. It's more than just a food competition. Do you think you are a good host? Can you cook for complete strangers, who would judge your skills on Reality TV?

We're not going to lie, we're a bit intrigued. Especially after seeing the trailer today:

The name could have been a lot different, however. Switching out "Dine" for "Chop" is a bit lazy.
