In December 2023, Afua Asantewaa embarked on a quest to set the record for the longest individual sing-a-thon, ultimately achieving an impressive duration of 126 hours and 52 minutes. However, when the Guinness World Records (GWR) announced the attempt on February 23, 2024, they stated that, regrettably, Afua’s endeavor did not meet the criteria for a successful Guinness World Record attempt.
Speaking on GTV on February 26, 2024, Afua Asantewaa explained that on February 13, she received an email from Guinness World Records (GWR) asking her to log in and view the status of her record attempt.
She stated that after receiving the notification from Guinness World Records, she attempted to log in to her account but was unable to access the website.
“As we speak, I cannot log in and we have screenshots. As if I knew this would happen,” she said.

According to Afua Asantewaa, she lodged a complaint to Guinness World Records to resolve the issue since she was unable to log in and view the results of her record attempt.
She stated that, without access to her account, she was unable to obtain the official document from Guinness World Records which she needed to make a statement about the results.
Afua Asantewaa said she is hopeful that Guinness World Records will respond to her inquiry soon.
