Ondo chef shocks Nigerians, says Guinness World Record approved her cook-a-thon

An Ondo-based chef, Adeola Adeyeye, 26, also known as ‘Chef Deo,’ has shocked Nigerians saying Guinness World Record approved her cook-a-thon before she embarked on it.

Recall one Dammy also went on a 120-hour cook-a-thon, only to say she did it for fun and got no approval from GWR.

With the aim of surpassing Baci’s 93 hours and 11 minutes record, Chef Deo, revealed that she had informed GWR of her intentions and received the green light before commencing the cook-a-thon.

Chef Deo’s cook-a-thon challenge commenced on June 30, 2023, in Ile-Oluji, the headquarters of Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo Local Government in Ondo State.

The cook-a-thon is scheduled to be concluded on July 6, 2023.

Speaking on the determination of the chef, her manager, Ayotunde Fagbamiye, revealed that after a thorough review and assessment, GWR, acknowledged and authorized her to proceed with the record attempt.

Fagbamiye expressed Chef Deo’s optimism and enthusiasm in accomplishing the task and becoming the new record holder of a cook-a-thon.

“Guinness World Records granted her approval to undertake the cook-a-thon.

“We were elated upon receiving the notification that she can proceed to break the record for an individual’s cooking marathon.

“She possesses great energy and is prepared to cook for 150 hours.

“Her passion and determination are evident, and I am confident she will successfully reach the end of this journey,” her manager said.
