Damilola Adeparusi, popularly called Chef Dammy, has finally spoken out about her just-concluded 120-hour cook-a-thon.
Dammy, a student at the University of Oye-Ekiti, told BBC News Yoruba that she did not participate in the cook-a-thon because she wants to be a Guinness World Record holder for the longest hours spent cooking by an individual or compete with Hilda Baci, who cooked on a stretch for 100 hours.
She went on to say that she participated in the cook-a-thon because she enjoys cooking and wants others to see a young girl cook.
Speaking in the interview, she said, “About the Guinness Book of Records or competing with Hilda Baci, I only did the cook-a-thon because I love cooking. I didn’t do the 120-hour cook-a-thon for Guinness World Records to know me; I only did it for people who wanted to watch a little girl cook.”
Chef Dammy began her 120-hour cooking marathon in Oye Local Government Area in Ekiti State on Friday, June 9, and completed the 120 hours on Wednesday morning.
