A manipulated image appearing to show Nigerian chef Hilda Baci with a Guinness World Records certificate has been widely shared on Twitter after it was reposted by a parody account.
Baci, 27, has received worldwide recognition after cooking non-stop for 100 hours in Lagos in an attempt to beat the 87 hours 45 minutes record set by Indian Chef Lata Tondon in 2019.
Our records team is looking forward to reviewing the evidence from Hilda's epic cooking marathon.https://t.co/fzRlNpqU8e

Guinness World Records says it is aware of the record attempt and is looking forward to receiving the evidence “to review, before we can confirm the record is official.”

Thank you for all the love,Thank you. 🙏🏾#Guinessbookofrecord #guinessworldrecord #100hrs pic.twitter.com/YXnltUnM3z— Hilda Baci (@TheHildaBaci) May 16, 2023
However, the image being shared on Twitter has been edited, and the Twitter account that shared it isn’t her genuine account, and is labelled as a parody account.
But that hasn't stopped some users from replying to congratulate Baci.
