Guinness World Record contender, Afua Asantewaa
Media personality and Guinness World Record contender, Afua Asantewaa, has disclosed that she and her team had planned to hold her second sing-a-thon attempt in New York, USA.
Following her first and widely publicised attempt in Accra, in December 2023, Asantewaa made another attempt to break the longest singing marathon record in Kumasi, in December 2024.
However, her second attempt was met with low publicity, low public support and trolling on social media.
In response, an infuriated Asantewaa took to social media to reply to the trolls, asking why they did not stop her attempt as threatened.
“You think I’m NPP and probably you think that they gave me $1 billion, which is never the case. You are threatening me? I remember when I was going to do my second attempt, such people came to my dms saying, ‘You are lucky you didn’t do it in Accra.’
“Why didn’t you come to Kumasi and stop it? You can threaten me, but you can’t come to Kumasi to stop it?” she asked in the video.
She then revealed that she and her team were initially planning to hold the second sing-a-thon attempt at the popular Times Square in New York, USA.
“The interesting conversation is that those who know, know that we were planning to hold the second attempt at Times Square in New York.
“They all knew; from my team to my manager to Global Media Alliance, they all knew,” she said.
Meanwhile, the world records body is yet to reply with their verdict on the second sing-a-thon attempt.
