The Guinness World Records office has officially announced that the attempt to set a record for the longest singing marathon by Ghana’s Afua Asantewaaa Aduonum was not successful.
In an X post on Friday, February 23, 2024, the Guinness World Record said it had rejected her application after reviewing evidence of the 126 hours and 52 minutes of sing-a-thon.
“Unfortunately Afua’s Guinness World Records attempt for the longest singing marathon was not successful, but we hope that she will make another attempt soon. We’ve seen how inspirational it has been for her fans. The evidence check had already begun before Afua requested priority service, so we refunded her payment earlier this month. We wish Afua the best of luck with any future record attempts,” the response by GWR said.
Afua Asantewaa Aduonum, sang from December 24 to December 28, 2023, and has since become a popular figure in entertainment in Ghana.
While awaiting a response from Guinness, she embarked on various media engagements, sharing her experience during the sing-a-thon.
