GHANAIAN LADY APPROVED TO SING FOR OVER 120 HOURS FOR GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS.
Ghanaian women empowerment advocate Afua Asantewaa Aduonum has officially received approval from Guinness World Records to sing for a duration ranging from 117 to 120 hours in a singing marathon.
To attempt the longest individual singathon in breaking the current record that stands at 105hours established in 2012 by Indian Sunil Waghmare, Afua is to sing songs from Ghana, celebrating Highlife, Hiplife and Gospel genres, limiting each song to a maximum of two minutes. According to @GWR regulations, she can only repeat the same songs after a four-hour interval.
The news has already garnered support from Ghanaians on social media. While some doubt her ability to break the current record for the singing marathon, others believe that with the backing of Ghanaians, she could achieve success whereas she is also seeking support from Ghanaians for the singing marathon scheduled for this December.
