Sonotech Medical and Diagnostic Centre has offered to provide medical assistance to Afua Asantewaa as she attempts to break the Guinness World Records’ longest singing marathon.
They will be the official health partners fully available for her on all the four days she will be attempting the singathon.
When the announcement of the offer was made on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z, Afua expressed her heartfelt gratitude to the health facility.
"I'm feeling goosebumps all over my skin. I'm really shocked. I must say I'm grateful to Sonotech for this," she said.
Sonotech Medical Centre offers 24 hours clinical and medical diagnostic imaging services with modern facilities.
The company currently employs about 95 fulltime staff and over 60 part-time hands that sustain the 24-hr service provision. It is known within the space for timely and quality of reports produced.
Afua, who is pepped up for the attempt, has so far received support from various individuals and companies.
As part of grooming her voice for the event, popular Ghanaian voice coach, Freeman Ame Daniel, has also offered to take her through vocal training from now till 24th - 27th December, 2023 when the programme will take place.
Afua Asantewaa O. Aduonum, who is also the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Askof Productions Limited, will host the four-day GWR attempt at the Aviation Social Centre in Accra.
She aims not only to achieve a personal milestone but also to promote Ghanaian music through this marathon.
Her goal is to surpass the existing record set in 2012 by one Indian, Sunil Waghmare. In this challenging endeavour, she aims to surpass the 105-hour record.
During the event, scheduled to last 117 hours, Miss Aduonum plans to exclusively sing Ghanaian songs, spanning across genres such as gospel, highlife, and hiplife.
Afua has cited Hilda Baci’s cook-a-thon where she successfully broke a four-year-old cooking record set by Lata Tondon.
