Nigerians have recently been working hard to break a number of Guinness World Records in various categories.
It all started when a Nigerian chef by the name of Hilda Baci broke the record for the most hours spent cooking by one person.
Since then, there have been rumors that Nigerians have tried to break records for the lengthiest time spent kissing, watching a movie, singing, dancing, and performing other fascinating feats.
In the midst of all of these record-breaking endeavors, the Nigerian news site Pulsenigeria247 published an article detailing the response given by Guinness World Records to a Nigerian who intended to break the records for “idea-a-thon” and “puff-a-thon.”
Guinness World Records took to the comment page to issue a warning, stating, “Please, enough with the record-a-thons.”
Upon reading this response from Guinness World Records, concerned Nigerians promptly flocked to the comment section to voice their opinions.
