Chef Dammy ‘not competing’ with Hilda Baci over the cooking record
Another Nigerian chef, Damilola Adeparusi, better known as Chef Dammy, has tried to break the non-stop-cooking world record.
She recently completed 120 hours of cooking, but it is not clear that Guinness World Records (GWR) has received an application for her efforts to be recognized.
Chef Dammy’s feat came just after GWR recognized Hilda Baci as the world record holder saying that she cooked non-stop for 93 hours 11 minutes.
That effort caused a nationwide sensation.
Chef Dammy told BBC News Yoruba that she was “not competing with anyone”. “The sky is wide enough for the birds to avoid colliding,” she added.
She received some criticism online for making the record attempt just after Chef Baci but she told the BBC that she had “no idea of people bullying her”.
