“DSS has to intervene at this point”- Nigerians groan as a lady begins a 200-hour Snail-A-Thon

Nigerians appeal to the authorities to step in as a woman begins her 200-hour Snail-A-Thon, during which she will fry and cook meals involving snails in an effort to break a Guinness World Record.

Nigerians have started using all available means to set one GWR or another over the past few months.

Hilda Baci, who started the Cook-a-Thon trend in Nigeria, set the trend, but many Nigerians have offered alternative suggestions.

In a video that is currently going viral online, a woman is seen starting a 200-hour Snail-A-Thon in which she would fry nonstop for eight days.

However, many people believe the trend is out of control and have urged the authorities to take action to stop the recent GWR frenzy.

Guinness World Records release official warning to Nigerians attempting to break a record like Hilda Baci

Guinness World Records has issued an official warning to Nigerians who want to break a record like Chef Hilda Baci.

Guinness World Records took to Twitter today, July 4th, 2023, to advise Nigerians and others on what to do before attempting to break any of their records.

On June 13th, 2023, Guinness World Records confirms Chef Hilda Baci of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria, as the world’s longest cooking individual with a time of 93 hours and 11 minutes.

Following this development, other people, mostly Nigerians, including Chef Dammy from Ekiti State and Chef Adeyeye Adeola from Ondo State, sought to break the record by setting targets of 120 and 150 hours, respectively.

Recently, another Nigerian lady identified as Joyc Ijeoma attempts to massage people for 72 hours in Lekki for GWR, however, she collapsed at 50 hours.

Reacting to all these attempts, the Guinness World Record refers to it as futile as the tweet asserts that the world record title must be confirmed before attempting it.

The Guinness World in the post shared content on how to apply to set or break the world record.

The tweet reads;

“Polite reminder that you should probably have your world record title confirmed by our team before attempting it here’s how our process works.”
