'Please enough of the record-a-thon' - Guinness World Records issue stern warning to Nigerians

The Guinness World Records has issued a warning to Nigerians following the rise in record-breaking attempts.

It is known that since Hilda Baci embarked on her cook-a-thon to break the longest cooking time by an individual, several Nigerians have come out to make their attempts with different challenges.

In a short period several Nigerians have embarked on their cooking marathon with the aim of beating Hilda Baci who is the current record holder with 93 hours, 11 minutes.

As a result of the numerous record breaking attempts, Guinness World Records have caution Nigerians on their attempts.

"Please enough with the record-a-thons," It said on his social media page.

The body also advised people to ensure they get approval from them before embarking on their attempt.

"We love the record-a-thon enthusiasm but we would suggest getting a record title approved by our team before attempting these marathon records!" the body wrote.
