Well-known celebrity chef Siba Mtongana has been announced as the Global Mandela Day Ambassador for Stop Hunger Now.

The initiative aims to eradicate hunger in impoverished communities by providing food and other essentials to children.

“I’m thrilled and feel very honored to be chosen as the Global Ambassador. Addressing the scourge of hunger in Africa and the world at large is a cause that I take seriously and is very dear to my heart‚” Siba said.

The foodie added that this is also her way of paying tribute to the late Nelson Mandela’s ideals.

“There’s no better way for me to pay tribute to the late Nelson Mandela’s ideals than to use my academic background in Food Science and Nutrition‚ culinary skills and global influence to bring positive change to the world. I’m inspired by what he once said: ‘Let there be work‚ bread‚ water and salt for all’“
