  "account": "Delicious or Disaster, a Nigerian cooking competition show, is set to return for its third season on September 25, hosted by Chef T. The 10-episode series will see 40 contestants compete for a N10 million prize pool, with each episode offering N1 million to the winner. Unlike previous seasons, which were filmed in limited spaces, this season will take place in a purpose-built studio, complete with a new set, all thanks to support from multiple sponsors. Contestants, ranging from mothers, fathers and young adults to professional chefs and food enthusiasts, were selected from over 500 entries. The show aims to highlight Nigeria's food culture and showcase local ingredients and dishes, such as ogiri, efo and tamarind. The growth of locally produced cooking programs like Delicious or Disaster can boost Nigeria's culinary industry, create new opportunities for young people, and even contribute to tourism, as food experiences become an attraction for visitors. The show's upcoming season is expected to continue strengthening Nigeria's food and creative content industries.",
