Chef Smith apologises for GWR Scandal

Chef Smith has publicly apologised to Ghanaians after faking his Guinness World Record certificate.

Earlier this week, Chef Smith held a press conference where he announced himself as the current record holder for the Longest Cooking Marathon.

He proudly displayed a certificate from Guinness World Records that was later exposed as fraudulent.

In an official response email, Guinness World Records clarified the situation, stating: “No, this is not true at all. He does not hold the GWR title, and that is not our certificate.

The current and true record holder is: The longest cooking marathon (individual) is 119 hr 57 min 16 sec and was achieved by Alan Fisher (Ireland) in Matsue, Shimane, Japan, from 28 September to 3 October 2023.”

In a recent interview with GHOne TV, Chef Smith apologised to Ghanaians on his knees and in tears.

According to him, his actions were merely a survival method and he did not intend to publicly embarrass the nation.

“I render a very big apology on this big platform and I apologise to the world that I’m so sorry. I don’t deserve to live, but because of the little I will eat, I have found myself in this situation. I am sorry and I am begging the entire nation to forgive me,” Chef Smith said in tears.
