Afua Asantewaa Aduonum, a broadcast journalist and Women Empowerment Advocate, is determined to break a singathon record in Ghana.
She has received approval from the global record company to attempt to set a new record for the longest singathon by an individual. Afua aims to sing for a minimum of 117 hours and a maximum of 120 hours.
The current record is held by Sunil Waghmare from India, who sang for 105 hours from March 3rd to 7th, 2012. Nigeria recently made headlines with record-breaking achievements, such as Hilda Baci breaking a cookathon record, which was later surpassed by an Irish chef.
Additionally, Helen Williams from Nigeria created a wig that stretched up to 351.28m (1,152ft 5in), spending 11 days and two million naira (£2,000: $2,500) on its construction. This remarkable hairpiece required 1,000 bundles of hair, 12 cans of hair spray, 35 tubes of hair glue, and 6,250 hair clips.
Afua enthusiastically shared the news on her Facebook page, urging her fans to eagerly anticipate the moment as history beckons.
Guinness World Records, an iconic British reference book published annually since 1955, catalogues remarkable human achievements and natural extremes. Formerly known as The Guinness Book of Records until 1999, it was also referred to as The Guinness Book of World Records in earlier United States editions.
