Tope Maggie, an Ogbomoso-based chef, is currently on a mission to surpass Irish chef Alan Fisher in a 200-hour cooking marathon.
This challenge follows Alan Fisher‘s recent Guinness World Records achievement, where he surpassed Nigeria’s chef Hilda Baci as the longest-cooking record holder.
Guinness World Records officially declared Alan Fisher as the new titleholder for the longest cooking marathon (individual), completing an impressive 119 hours and 57 minutes.
Hilda Baci, a Nigerian chef, previously held the record for this.
Fisher also set a new record for the longest baking marathon (individual), clocking in at 47 hours and 21 minutes, breaking Wendy Sandner of the USA’s previous mark.
However, just days after Alan Fisher’s record-breaking feat, Tope Maggie is set to cook for an astonishing 200 hours, aiming to surpass Fisher’s 119 hours and 57 minutes.
