Last month Nigerians especially those from my state were excited because of a young 27 year old girl that cooked 100 hours from the 11th of May 2023 to the 15th of May 2023, well I'd say I can't be prouder than this😄😄😄😂✌️
I am too proud of my state, I am too proud to be a Nigerian.
There's nothing as sweet as being known for Good.
So Hilda Bassey aka Hilda Baci has done this, yes she has broken Guiness Book of record.
Seriously she has done us good, I can't imagine the stress, the pains etc, to crown it all she was actually seeing her period and having the normal women menstrual cramps, I am a woman so I know how annoying cramps could be🤦🤦🤦, but my girl did it, yes she did it for Akwaibom state, she did it for Nigeria and she did it for us all.
What more can I say than Girl you won my heart.
