Ghanaian chef, Faila completes 227 hours cook-a-thon to set new record


Ghanaian chef, Failatu Abdul-Rasak, popularly known as Faila, has cooked for 227 hours in a bid to set a new Guinness World Record (GWR).


Chef Faila began her remarkable attempt on New Yearā€™s Day at the Modern City Hotel in Tamale.


On Wednesday, the Ghanaian cook ended her attempt at the 227th hour in front of a crowd of supporters and fellow Ghanaians.


In a social media post, Chef Faila appreciated everyone ā€œwho has been by my side on this journeyā€.


She also said her victory is ā€œdedicated to God and Ghanaā€.


ā€œNow, itā€™s time for us to rejoice and jubilate. This victory is dedicated to God and Ghana!šŸ‡¬šŸ‡­ Thank you all, mā€™pagya!ā€ she wrote on X.


ā€œAllow me to borrow a part of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumahā€™s words: ā€œAt long last, the battle has ended.ā€ I couldnā€™t help but be overwhelmed with excitement and joy. Youā€™ve been by my side on this journey from the very first minute to 227 hours.ā€


The Guinness World Records organisers have yet to release an official statement regarding Failaā€™s attempt.


Throughout the attempt, Faila received support from several Ghanaian celebrities, including former Black Star footballers Asamoah Gyan and Stephen Appiah. Mahamudu Bawumia, Ghanaā€™s vice president, announced the attempt on Facebook and donated 30,000 Ghanaian cedis (Ā£1,981) to the chef. Faila is hoping to break the world record held by Irish chef Alan Fisher, who cooked for 119 hours and 57 minutes.
