Speaking with BBC News Yoruba, the young cook stated her reasons for embarking on a 120-hour cooking marathon.
Loosely translated, she said, “Concerning the Guinness World Record or competing with Hilda Baci, I did it for fun. Cooking is what I enjoy. I didn’t do it for the Guinness World Record. I am just doing it for people who might want to watch this little girl. I know people are surprised, but I feel good about it. Some people love me, and they are ready to back me up. About travelling out, if it comes, we will embrace it. It is a good thing.”
Chef Dammy also offered some advice to her supporters and anyone who cares to listen.
