"We were even planning on where to break the news when we received it.

She explained that a complaint was sent to the Guinness World Records regarding her login details and, hence, was surprised to hear that the organisation had updated Ghanaians on the record without her consent.

"In the contract we signed, until I decide to let it out they can't. I can't access my account so how then do I see what exactly went wrong. Everybody is emotional about this and were anticipating that the results would come from us.

At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in 2000 views.
