Chef Dammy is aiming to cook for 120 hours
Recall that Chef Dammy started her cookathon on Friday, June 9, and she aims at cooking non-stop for 120 hours.
Dammy's aim is to break the Guinness World Record for the longest hours spent cooking by an individual.
The record is held by Latan Tondon, who, in September 2019, cooked for 87 hours and 45 minutes.
However, a Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci, in May 2023 cooked for 100 hours, and her evidence of cooking is still under review by the Guinness World Records.
Nigerians have rallied support for Chef Dammy. If she succeeds, she may set a new record surpassing Hilda Baci's.
