Chef Smith finally awarded as the longest cook-a-thon GWR holder

First Ghanaian cook-a-thon record holder

With this recognition, Chef Smith now becomes the first Ghanaian to achieve this feat albeit unsuccessful attempts by Chef Failatu and Abena Serwaa Kwartemaa.

Speaking at the press conference earlier today at the La Palm Beach Hotel to officially announce the news, Chef Smith said his success was by dint of hard work and determination.

“It has never been easy. Knowing very well that you need to sleep at the time that you aren’t sleeping because you have focused your mind on something you want to achieve. Not only for yourself but for your beloved country. It has been a very difficult challenge, especially within the first and second week,” he said.

Despite the obvious drain on his health, Chef Smith said the support from Ghanaians motivated him to push above his limit in his cook-a-thon attempt.

He further disclosed that he first applied for the cook-a-thon attempt in June 2023, but the GWR rejected his application, forcing him to reapply again in November 2023.

However, he said the GWR gave him the approval to attempt the record in January 2024, which he accomplished and has now become the new record holder.

Chef Smith displayed the certificate he received from the Guinness World Record to the gathering at the press conference.
