Afua Asantewaa, widely recognized for her ambitious singing marathons, is gearing up for another attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous singing by an individual. Despite facing challenges during her last attempt in December 2023, which resulted in disqualification, Afua remains steadfast in her pursuit of this remarkable achievement.
During an interview with Akoma FM’s Tony Best, Afua shared her excitement about hosting the next singathon in Kumasi. She revealed that she has obtained the necessary clearance from Guinness World Records to proceed with this new event, signaling her determination to overcome previous setbacks. “God willing, in December, I will be hosting another singathon in Kumasi,” she stated, expressing her enthusiasm for the upcoming challenge.
To ensure the success of this event, Afua and her team are currently conducting a feasibility study to identify the most suitable location within Kumasi. She emphasized the importance of selecting a venue that not only accommodates the event but also allows local residents to participate and enjoy the experience. This approach, she believes, will help strengthen her role as a tourism ambassador and create a deeper connection with the community.
Reflecting on her earlier attempt, Afua acknowledged the disappointment of being disqualified after five days of continuous singing. However, she sees this as a stepping stone rather than a roadblock. “The fact that I was not successful in my first attempt shouldn’t be a barrier to my quest of becoming a Guinness World Record holder,” she remarked. This resilient attitude showcases her commitment to her goals and her belief in the importance of perseverance.
Afua’s passion for music and her determination to break records resonate with many, and her upcoming singathon is expected to draw significant attention. She hopes that this event will not only bring together music lovers but also inspire others to pursue their dreams, regardless of the challenges they face.
As the date approaches, anticipation builds for what promises to be an unforgettable event in Kumasi. Afua Asantewaa’s journey highlights the power of resilience and community support, reminding everyone that setbacks can pave the way for future successes. With her sights set on the record, she is ready to rally her supporters and make history once again.
