Guinness World Records has reacted after Nigerian Chef, Hilda Baci, cried out about the delay in verifying her cook-a-thon.
It is worth recalling that Hilda Baci embarked on the cooking marathon in an attempt to break the world record for the longest cooking time by a person.
She achieved the feat by cooking nonstop for four days, beating the previous record of 87 hours and 45 minutes set by Indian Chef, Lata Tondon on Monday, May 15th.
The 26-year-old restaurateur from Akwa Ibom set a new record of 100 hours, but her feat is yet to be confirmed by Guinness World Records.
According to them, they must first examine all the evidence before they can officially confirm a record.
Hilda Baci announced on her Twitter account on Monday, June 1st, that she had submitted all the evidence and was constantly updating her email to be informed of the latest Guinness World Records response.
“Not me refreshing my email every second since we submitted all the evidence to Guinness World Records,” she tweeted.
In response to Hilda Baci’s Twitter post, GWR announced that their records team is currently reviewing the evidence.
“Our records team is working on it,” the official Twitter handle of Guinness World Records replied to Baci’s tweet.
