There are mixed reactions on social media platform X formerly known as Twitter regarding the singing marathon attempt by Ghana's Afua Asantewaa Aduonum.
This comes after Guinness World Records (GWR) revealed that Afua Asantewaa’s attempt to break the record for the longest singing marathon by an individual was "unsuccessful" but acknowledged how "inspirational it has been for her fans".
Unfortunately Afua's Guinness World Records attempt for the longest singing marathon was not successful, but we hope that she will make another attempt soon. We've seen how inspirational it has been for her fans. The evidence check had already begun before Afua requested priority…

In December 2023, Afua Asantewaa began her attempt to break the record for the longest sing-a-thon by an individual which she achieved an impressive 126hrs and 52 minutes.
But announcing the record attempt by the Afua Asantewaa on February 23, the GWR stated “Unfortunately, Afua's Guinness World Records attempt for the longest singing marathon was not successful, but we hope that she will make another attempt soon.”
In regard to this, Ghanaians have taken to the micro-blogging site to extend their heartfelt message to Afua Asantewaa and commended her for her effort at the singing record attempt.
