Following her admirable attempt to break the record for the longest singing marathon by an individual, Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum expressed her wish that young people will step outside of their comfort zones and try new things.
She feels that the five-day dream would
serve as a springboard for many Ghanaian youngsters, specifically females, to
try new things and become who they want to be.
After seeking medical attention behind a
screen onstage, Asantewaa reported to the crowd that she had lost track of time
throughout the five-day excursion.
She expressed appreciation to Ghanaians for their support during the song, and she hoped that her endeavor would encourage other young ladies to reach higher.
This powerful message serves as an
inspiring force that resonates women, youth, and individuals of all backgrounds
It encourages everyone to step out of their comfort zones and embrace new
experiences, opening doors to limitless possibilities. In this article, we
explore the significance of seeking inspiration and taking bold leaps that
ultimately lead to success.
She also extended appreciation to Ghanaians for their support during the singing session.
"On behalf of my spouse, my relatives
my team, volunteers, press, Ghana Tourism Authority, I want to express my
immense gratitude to all those who participated in this endeavor to sing
continuously.
"This was merely a vision that
materialized within a span of just five days. I say 'just' because I don't even
recall how it began, let alone how it concluded," she revealed.
Asantewaa has sung for a total of 126 hours
and 52 minutes, and is now awaiting confirmation from the judges of the
Guinness World Record to ascertain whether she has officially surpassed the
existing record set by India's Sunil Waghmare in 2012.
She initiated her Sing-a-thon at midnight
on December 24, 2023, and concluded in the morning of December 29, 2023.
She is scheduled to host an all-white
Thanksgiving event at the same venue on Friday evening at 6pm.
Throughout the duration of the activity,
the Akwaaba Village in Accra was bustling with musicians, politicians,
socialites, journalists, celebrities, and members of the general public, who
showed their support for her during this attempt."
