A popular Kenyan chef, Maliha, has vowed to challenge Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci, in August in cooking marathon.
Speaking in a recent video, Maliha recounted how she previously won two awards and swore to get two more in August
A Kenyan chef identified as Maliha Mohammed has officially announced that she will be breaking the Guinness world record for the longest cooking marathon in August.
Hilda Baci had just broken the World Record on Monday, 15th May by cooking for over 100 hours.
According to the Kenyan chef, she had broken the same record in 2017 and 2019 consecutively with a smaller time frame.
In 2018, Maliha had broken the record by cooking for 72 hours while in 2019, she cooked non-stop for 75 hours.
Unfortunately, she claimed that her efforts were never officially recognised by the Guinness World Records.
To win the record this time, Chef Maliha will have to cook for more than 100 hours for the title of ‘Longest cooking by an Individual Marathon’ as was set by Hilda Baci this week.
She also announced that she will be breaking another record which is the ‘home kitchen cooking marathon’.
Chef Maliha said she applied for Guinness World Record last year in December and she has gotten a go-ahead reply through email.
“I will be training hard from May all the way to July as I prepare to break these records,” she said.

Iamnaniboi reacted:
” Baci will re-break it. Our joy must not be cut short this year. Cooking wey unite Nigerians for 4 good days.”
Chief_dr_ejirookurame added:
“This is exactly how some people are in our lives, they don’t regard, respect or notice when you are struggling to get to the top.
But the moment you make a tremendous bold step of success, they pull you down by competing with you, and being envious of your achievements!
“Fellow African Chefs, didn’t you all know about GWR existed before now? Why did you just realize you are a Chef??
Didn’t you know about the former record holder? Did you see any Chef in her continent trying to set their own record.
Na only una things dey different for this world. Please go and clear SAMBISA FOREST and break your own record..
Allow Hilda to shine in peace abeg una own don dey too much abeg! So annoying.”
