Sad! Despite cooking for 9 days nonstop, Guinness World Records yet to comment on Chef Faila’s cookathon attempt

Thu, 11 Jan 2024 Source: God’s News

Chef Faila has been cooking for the past 9 days nonstop to set a new Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon.




Initially, the historic cookathon journey which began on the 1st of January 2024 was set to end on the 5th of January but record beaker Chef Faila extended her attempt to 10 days by adding extra 5 days.

Assisted by a deputy chef, Failatu initially announced plans to continuously cook for an impressive 120 hours at the Modern City Hotel in Tamale.

The ambitious culinary marathon is to surpass the existing record of 119 hours and 57 minutes set last year by Ireland’s Alan Fisher, who surpassed the renowned Hilda Baci’s record

The decision to extend her cooking marathon was informed by Ugandan’s Dorcus Mirembe, affectionately known as Mama D, who is awaiting official confirmation from Guinness World Records judges after successfully cooking for 144 hours.

While Chef Faila is still going strong, a set of Ghanaians have expressed severe worries concerning how Guinness World Records has intentionally gone blind on the unprecedented attempt by Chef Faila.

According to these worried Ghanaians, Guinness World Records should have at least liked one of the posts of Chef Faila or even dropped a comment under her record-breaking attempts on social media – But unfortunately, none has been done so far as of the publication of this article.

However, Ghanaians are optimistic that Chef Faila will emerge victorious at the end of her 10-day journey.
