Chef Dammy did not apply, says Guinness World Records

Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that the Guinness World Records said Chef Dammy did not apply to it before starting to cook.

The body said it is not officially aware of the cookathon that took place in Ekiti state.

This effectively means Chef Dammy would not be able to submit evidence of her cookathon.
