Recall Tope Maggie a Nigerian chef went 200 hours in Ogbomoso, Oyo state, between November 9 and 18, 2023. However his attempt is yet to undergo verification by GWR to confirm if he has indeed broken Alan Fisher (Ireland) record of 119 hours 57 minutes 16 seconds set on October 3.
Another report meanwhile stated before the medical emergency, Maliha had just passed the 111-hour mark.
A video on her Instagram stories shows her lying on a stretcher attended to by what appeared to be medical personnel.
In the video, she was unconscious but conveyed that the emergency wouldn’t mark the end of the challenge.
“I am a conqueror and a marathon runner. Nothing is bringing us down; to the finish line, we go,” she wrote.
Obviously oblivious of Tope Maggie’s attempt in Nigeria she set 140 hours cooking marathon target for herself which we she hoped would consign to the dustbin of history Alan Fisher’s new record that led to the dislodgement of Nigeria’s Hilda Baci which she set in May.
