Damilola Adeparusi’s Decision To Begin 120-Hour Cooking Marathon Draws Mixed Reactions From Nigerians
Hilda Baci had become the ‘woman of the moment’ in the country after thinking outside the box and she had gotten in the spotlight.
Though, the World longest cooking record is currently held by an Indian chef, Lata Tondon at 87 hours and 45 minutes, 27-year-old Hilda Baci, who is an indigene of Akwa Ibom state, had ‘overtaken’ Lata Tandon and became a Guinness Book of Records holder a few days ago.
She had cooked for 100 hours in Lagos, and succeeded in setting a new world record as the first human on earth to spend such a length of time on cooking.
Guinness World Records has not however given her efforts an official recognition submitting a few days ago that ‘our records team are working on it’.
While still awaiting their final decision, Damilola Adeparusi, has begun a 120-hour cooking marathon in Oye –Ekiti , Ekiti state.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned Adeparusi had already hit 15 hours of her 120 hours as at Friday afternoon.
Her action had since drawn mixed reactions from Nigerians.
A social media user, Adesoji Agboola said, ‘Unemployment na bad thing oo. This is what happens when you associate unnecessary publicity and give unnecessary credence to issues that aren’t relevant’.
‘Will she meet the criteria? It’s not only about cooking. She has to cook with the less privileged and also feeds the special people while standing to cook.
Did she write to GWR? Where are the judges from GWR? Did she do the 24hrs trial and sent it to GWR? Lots of rules are attached.
I wish her all the best even though I know she won’t make it cos her eyes are already showing weakness.
Meanwhile where are that Liberian man and the Kenyan woman that wanted to break the record after Hilda? The pots and plating are even disturbing my eyes talk less of the eyes of GWR’ Chinenye Azubuike said.
‘Kontinue! absolutely no initiative, only waiting for someone to start something and then others will join. National sibling rivalry? Abubakar Yakubu asked?
‘Everybody wan blow. Why must it be this same record of Hilda Baci? Why can’t she try other fields? Even Hilda is yet to receive her own certificate. Haba’ Chris Henry wrote.
‘So who are the spectators? Michael Nungo asked.
Ikechukwu Esinwoke said, ‘Can’t you wait for at least 1 year before you do this rubbish? Na waooo for Naija people’.
‘Good luck, go girl’ Womi Odd said.
‘Best of luck. Let’s break the record. Make sure you invite Guinness before you proceed’ Ade Ayemi said.
‘Best of luck dear. This is Nigeria and ‘overtaking’ is allowed’ Odom Oluchukwu submitted-Team@orientactualmags.com
