Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum is aiming to break four more records with her 126-hour, 52-minute singing marathon attempt, which she made in December 2023.
Asantewaa Aduonum’s team submitted documentation of the attempt to the Guinness World Records last Saturday for the requisite examination and confirmation of the record following an absorbing attempt across five days.
She did, however, tell the Daily Graphic that the team would also be applying for other records, such as the longest-running musical event in Ghana and Africa, the first musical show to draw eight DJs for a continuous performance over five days, and the first female to attempt a singing marathon, in addition to the record for singing.
“I think the current attempt I did captures four records, but many haven’t paid attention.
“There are many records that I have broken, but you have to apply for them separately.
Currently, we are doing the longest singing marathon, but it applies for four or five records on their platforms.
“We have submitted the current one, but we are now going to look into the others.
We will submit them separately,” she said.
Following the December 24-29 singing marathon, the Ministry of Tourism, Arts, and Culture named Mrs. Owusu Aduonum, Chief Executive Officer of ASKOF Productions Limited, the organizers of the Ghana Outstanding Women Awards, Miss Kidi Ghana, Teen Queen Ghana, and Pose for Africa, a Tourism Ambassador.
As she made the bold endeavor at the Akwaaba Village at the Accra International Airport, she attracted the Vice-President, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, and a number of celebrities and media figures who in person showed their support. In fact, the event had the entire country enthralled.
