Mombasa based chef Maliha Mohammed has broken the Guinness World Record and emerged the longest cooking chef.
The 36-year-old, Chef Maliha, cooked for 75 hours non-stop to break the current record held by Rickey Lumpkin from California, USA who cooked for 68 hours 30 minutes and one second in December 2018.
Pwani Oil who officially sponsored her helped cover chef Maliha’s costs including charges paid to Guinness World Record, equipment required, food prepared, her team’s recruitment and coordination, support including doctors, timekeepers, cameramen and technicians.
The sponsorship also included assisting the Chef do a couple of runs where she cooked for thirty-six (36) hours as part of her preparation before the attempt to break the world record.
