Another Nigerian chef, Adeola begins 150-hour cook-a-thon to break Guinness records

Adeyeye Adeola, a talented Nigerian chef, has embarked on a
remarkable culinary journey to set a new Guinness World Record for the longest
cooking marathon (individual).

Adeola’s cook-a-thon began on Friday, June 30, 2023, in the
Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State and is scheduled to
conclude on Thursday, July 6, 2023.

This is coming after another Nigerian chef, Adeparusi
Damilola, also known as Chef Dammy embarked on a 120-hour cook-a-thon in Oye
Local Government Area of Ekiti State.

Chef Dammy, a 22-year-old student at the Federal University,
Oye-Ekiti, aimed to push the boundaries of culinary endurance.

Baci’s record-breaking attempt took place from Thursday, May
11 to Monday, May 15, during which she cooked over 100 pots of food over four
days.

In an official statement on its website, the Guinness World
Records confirmed Hilda Effiong Bassey, also known as Hilda Baci, as the record
holder for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with an impressive time
of 93 hours and 11 minutes.

The GWR in a statement on its website, said, “Following a
thorough review of all the evidence, Guinness World Records can now confirm
that Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci, has officially broken
the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with a time of 93
hours 11 minutes.”

However, Adeola’s 150-hour cook-a-thon if achieved will
break Hilda Baci’s record and also set a new world record for the longest
cooking marathon by an individual.

Nigerians eagerly await the outcome, hoping to witness
Adeola’s extraordinary achievement in setting a new Guinness World Record.
