Ghanaians on the social media platform X, previously known as Twitter, are sharing their anticipation for Chef Failatu Abdul-Razak's bold attempt at the Guinness World Record cook-a-thon.
Commencing her marathon cooking session on the eve of the New Year in 2024, Chef Failatu Abdul-Razak is striving to set a new Guinness record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.
Her ambitious goal is to reach a staggering 120 hours, equivalent to about five days of continuous cooking, to surpass the existing record held by Irish Chef Alan Fisher, who achieved an impressive 119 hours and 57 minutes.
This culinary feat is currently underway at the Modern City Hotel in Tamale, in the Northern Region.
In response to this extraordinary endeavour, the micro-blogging site has become a hub of excitement, as Ghanaians actively cheer on and rally behind Chef Failatu in her quest to make culinary history.
Joining the well-wishers on X, Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia extended his support to chef Failatu's cooking attempt.
See reactions below.
Faila, I wish you all the best in your attempt to set a new world record with your cookathon.
