Nigerians have been at the forefront of making history, breaking records, and holding Guinness World Records, as Hilda Baci set a new record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual.

Guinness World Records, published from its inception in 1955 until 1999 as The Guinness Book of Records and in previous United States editions as The Guinness Book of World Records, is a British reference book published annually, listing world records for both human achievements and the extremes of the natural world.

The brainchild of Sir Hugh Beaver, the book was co-founded by twin brothers Norris and Ross McWhirter in Fleet Street, London, in August 1955.

Earlier on Monday morning, Hilda Effiong Bassey known as Hilda Baci officially surpassed the current Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon by an individual after cooking for more than 87 hours, 45 minutes, a record set by India's Lata Tondon in 2019. She'll keep cooking till 4 p.m. today to reach 96 hours.
