at the venue of the event at around 1am, after carrying out over 50 hours of the body massage. 

According to Africa Facts Zone, she had made it to 53 hours and was 19 hours away from breaking the record before collapsing.  

As of the time of filing this report, the masseuse is yet to return to the venue and has stopped the live coverage.

Had Ijeoma accomplished her desire, she would have followed in the footsteps of Nigerian chef, Hilda Baci, who recently broke the Guinness World Record for the longest cooking marathon.

Prior to her attempt, the Guinness World Record (GWR) for the massage-a-thon was set in 2015 by Alastair Galpin who achieved a time of 25 hours and 4 minutes in South Kalimantan, Indonesia.
