Popular Nigerian chef, restaurateur, and actress, Hilda Effiong Bassey, better known as Hilda Baci, has taken to social media to find out when the Guinness World Records (GWR), will recognise her recent record-breaking feat.
She asked the question after telling the British reference book which annually lists world records that she has been refreshing her email in anticipation of hearing from it.
Hilda Baci last month embarked on a cooking marathon in a quest to break the record set by Indian chef, Lata Tondon.
The 26-year-old cooked over 100 meals, mostly Nigerian cuisine for over 100 hours non-stop from May 11th to May 15th and served over 4000 people for free.

In the process, she broke the record of 87 hours, 40 minutes earlier set by Tondon, but the GWR is yet to officially recognize her as the new world record holder.
According to the organisation, it needs to review all the evidence she provided before officially confirming her record.
Reacting to the development via a tweet on Thursday, Baci said she has been refreshing her email constantly for the latest response from Guinness World Record.
She wrote: “Not me refreshing my email every second since we submitted all the evidence to Guinness World Records”.
Responding to her post, GWR said they are still reviewing the evidence.
“Our records team are working on it” it replied.
