Guinness World Records has said that its team will review Hilda Bassey’s cooking performance and subject the whole process to its verification procedure.

This was said in an article posted on the organisation’s website on Tuesday. The body said it was aware of the record attempt by the chef, addressed as Hilda Baci, at snapping the title for longest cooking marathon by an individual from its current holder, Lata Tondon (India), who won with a cooking time of 87 hours, 45 minutes.

The article quoted a GWR spokesperson as saying: “We are aware of the record attempt and are looking forward to receiving the evidence for our Records Management Team to review before we can confirm the record is official.”

The organisation noted that Baci started on “Thursday and continued through to Monday, reportedly whipping up 55 recipes and more than 100 meals in a whopping 100-hour stint”.

Earlier, we reported that the GWR does not have a policy of giving financial rewards to title holders. However, the title could earn winners mouth-watering deals with corporate and governmental organisations.

If her record is ratified, the Nigerian cook will be the first African and the second female to hold the meritorious recognition in the world since the body created the category.

Millions of people across the world have eulogised the chef for her daring effort and determination to create a record that would be difficult to beat.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), among other notable well-wishers, has congratulated the 27-year-old chef based in Lagos State.
