The following day, on Tuesday, May 16, 2023, a spokesperson from Guinness World Records issued an official statement on their website, stating, “We are aware of the record attempt and eagerly anticipate receiving the evidence for our Records Management Team to review before we can confirm the record as official.”

Initially aiming for a cooking marathon of 96 hours, Hilda later extended her goal to a remarkable 100 hours. Her determination and perseverance drove her to set a new record for the longest cooking marathon.

Prominent figures in Nigeria, such as Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu; Lead Pastor of Harvester International, Bolaji Idowu; and renowned Nigerian singers Tiwa Savage, Tim Godfrey, and Ice Prince, visited Hilda during her eventful Cook-a-thon.
