ALAT by Wema, Nigeria’s first digital bank, is hosting a speed-eating competition and  here’s everything you need to know about it.

1. Anyone can compete

There are no special criteria to enter the competition. Are you a young Nigerian between the ages of 18 to 35? Then you’re good to go! You need to sign up on the ALAT app with the code ‘SQUAD’, then head to the ALAT’s verified social media channels (@alat_ng

, on Instagram and Alat by Wema on Facebook)  to complete the registration.

2. Free Food

All you need to do is bring yourself and a big appetite. A speed-eating challenge tests how fast you can finish a food item before your opponent. How quickly can you eat? The world record for eating a 12-inch pizza is 32.28 secs! That’s the size of a medium pizza. Whew!

3. Fastest mouth (and fingers) takes it all

The competition is open to you and your chosen friend, but just make sure that they type as fast as you eat. Because within the allotted time it takes you to eat, your friend has to complete the signup on the ALAT app.

4. You’re getting paid to eat

If you get contacted, you stand a chance to win ₦100k! All because you eat fast. It doesn’t get more fun than that. You’re going to be battling with other teams, so register on the app, follow ALAT on social media and sit tight because you just might be called on to display your speed-eating skills.
