GWR Confirms Hilda Baci’s Record 24hrs After Pro Kingsley’s Prophecy
Less than 24 hours after the prophetic release of Prophet
Kingsley Aitafo, the Guinness World Records (GWR) has confirmed Nigerian chef, Hilda Bassey aka
Hilda Baci as the new record holder for longest cooking marathon by an individual.
The amiable prophet whose prophetic releases have been coming to pass at an accelerated speed revealed yesterday that Hilda Baci will soon be honored by GWR.
And today, official adjudicator of the Guinness World Records, Mark Mckinley, announced Baci’s confirmation in a video on Tuesday.
The official also posed with Baci’s certificate while the GWR followed the video with an official statement.
“Following a thorough review of all the evidence, Guinness World Records can now confirm that Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci, has officially broken the record for the longest cooking marathon (individual), with a time of 93 hours 11 minutes,” GWR said in a statement released on Tuesday, one month after Baci’s adventurous cooking.
According to GWR, Baci attempted to set a record of 100 hours, however, almost seven hours were deducted from her final total because she mistakenly took extra minutes for one of her rest breaks early on in the attempt.
As with all ‘longest marathon’ records, the participant is permitted a five-minute rest break for every continuous hour of activity. These rest breaks can be accumulated if not taken. They were the only times Hilda could use the bathroom or sleep during the attempt,” the statement partly read.
The previous record of 87 hours 45 minutes was set by India-based chef, Lata Tondon in 2019.
Hilda attempted this record to “put Nigerian cuisine on the map” and “to inspire young African women to chase their dreams.”
“I also decided to break this record to truly push my limits and test my abilities,” she added.
Hilda prepared for the event by creating a 35-item menu “as a guide” for every meal that she would cook.
She ensured that she had the necessary ingredients to make each recipe, with her team procuring further food items while the cook-a-thon was underway “based on what was needed to be topped up.”
Hilda’s record attempt took the world of social media by storm, with millions in Nigeria and beyond following her progress via an Instagram live stream.
GWR stated that Baci’s cook-a-thon was so popular that its website crashed for two days due to the unprecedented volume of traffic
