An Ondo State-based chef, Adeola Adeyeye, has commenced a 150-hour cooking marathon popularly called 'cook-a-thon' in an attempt to break Hilda Baci's Guinness World Record.

Baci is the current holder for the longest cooking marathon of 93 hours and 11 minutes.

This is coming after another Nigerian chef, Adeparusi Damilola aka Chef Dammy embarked on a 120-hour cook-a-thon in Oye Local Government Area of Ekiti State.

Adeyeye began the cook-a-thon on Friday, June 30, 2023, in the Ile-Oluji/Okeigbo Local Government Area of Ondo State and is scheduled to conclude on Thursday, July 6, 2023.

Adeyeye announced this on her twitter handle, @ChefDeookathon.

She wrote, "We are on a mission to break a Guinness World Record as we embark on a 150-hour Cook-a-thon.

"Your support and encouragement is needed to make us stronger."
