Chef Tartenger Victor, also known as Chef Naira Victor, is on the cusp of making history as he strives to break the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.

IDOMA VOICE reports that Chef Victor has showcased remarkable culinary endurance, now surpassing 93 hours in the kitchen.

This leaves him with just 44 hours to achieve his record-breaking goal.

During his marathon cooking session, he has skillfully prepared over 70 different cuisines, spanning both local and international dishes.

Last night, the state governor, Hyacinth Alia, along with some political leaders from the state, visited Tiger Bar Makurdi to show their support and cheer on the young chef towards victory.

Similarly, popular skitmaker, Omo Benue stormed the venue with ‘four virgins’ to support the chef.

Residents of Adijah in Ugbokpo area of Apa Local Government Area, Benue State have fled their homes, fleeing in panic as Fulani herdsmen launched a violent attack on the community.

Eyewitnesses report that the attackers descended on the village on Thursday afternoon, unleashing gunfire on unsuspecting residents.

The exact number of casualties is yet to be confirmed.

According to a resident, the terrified community members are seeking refuge in neighbouring villages to escape the onslaught.

One Mrs Maria Agbo, a native of Owukpa and her daughter, Christiana, met a tragic end during what should have been a joyous celebration.

The woman had traveled to Abuja to take care of her daughter, who had just given birth after a decade-long struggle with childlessness.

Little did they know that their joy would be shattered by a group of ruthless kidnappers.

IDOMA VOICE gathered, the family’s world turned upside down when daring criminals stormed their home around Dei Dei two weeks ago and abducted Christiana, her mother, her husband, and the newborn baby.

Days later, the family received the devastating news that Christiana and her mother had been killed, and the newborn baby callously abandoned in an undisclosed hospital.

The husband, a soldier was battered and injured, barely survived the ordeal.

Jane Ann, a niece of the deceased, shared the gut-wrenching account of the tragedy.

Unable to comprehend the loss, she expressed her grief and disbelief at the senseless act that unfolded during what was supposed to be a celebration of life.

“I’m seeing all your messages, but I can’t reply because my heart is bleeding, my head is aching, and my eyes are red!” Jane Ann lamented, questioning why her aunt’s life had to end during the omugo celebration.

She lamented further, “Is she the first person to travel to her daughter’s house for omugo? Why did her life end during omugo? After a 10-year marriage with no child, they prayed to God for this child, and finally, He blessed them with one! Isn’t that cause for celebration? She left the village with open eyes and legs, eager to share in her daughter’s joy, only for kidnappers to snatch away both her life and her daughter’s. Now, she returns from omugo in a casket 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

“Kidnappers! The lives you did not create but have the power to take will surely face judgment! The same hands you used to take someone’s life will turn against you! The earth you stained with these lives will hold you accountable! The path where you discarded them will condemn you! God, the creator of life, will also pass judgment upon you! The breath you all share is cursed! There will be no peace for the wicked ones. Whoever is behind the deaths of these innocent souls shall pay with their own life!”
