A Ghanaian chef, Faila Abdul Razak, who is currently on a journey attempting to break the longest solo cooking record in the Guinness World Records, has urged Ghanaians to support her agenda to put the nation on the highest map.
January 1 to 5, 2024, have been set for the chef to attempt breaking the longest cooking record of 119 hours and 57 minutes, aiming to set her own record by cooking for 120 hours or more.
Officially, the current longest cooking marathon is 119 hours, 57 minutes, and 16 seconds, achieved by Alan Fisher from Ireland, who set the record in 2023. The chef of an Irish restaurant in Matsue cooked without a break, and now a Ghanaian chef is set to break the record.
Speaking to Adom News, the GWR candidate, Abdul Razak Failatu, who will start her cooking on Monday, in an attempt to break a Nigerian lady’s record in the Guinness World Records book, urged citizens to support her physically, through traditional means, and on social media platforms.
Faila’s manager, speaking to Adom News, said they are looking forward to cooking for more than 120 hours. He expressed confidence that Faila will break the record and put Ghana on the map.
Answering questions about Faila’s health, the manager revealed that, according to their health team, Faila has the strength for more hours.
