Nigerian chef Hilda Baci is reported to have broken the record for the longest cooking hours.
The record was held by an Indian chef Lata Tondon who set a record of 87 hours and 45 minutes in India in 2019, but the Nigerian chef blew past that record at 7:46 am on Monday, May 15, 2023, clocking 87 hours and 46 minutes.
The 27-year-old has been cooking nonstop since 4 pm on Thursday, May 11, and planned to keep cooking till 4 pm today to reach her record goal of 96 hours.
But, in a response by Guinness World Record on Monday morning said: “we’re aware of this amazing record attempt, we need to review all the evidence first before officially confirming a record”
