• In an interview, the trailblazer explained that unsuccessful applications for other singing attempts caused the deactivation

The Guinness World Records (GWR) prompted reactions from Ghanaians after the organisation dismissed Afua Asantewaa Aduonum’s longest singing marathon attempt.

Many expressed disappointment that she should have updated the public about her sing-a-thon outcome, with some claiming she kept the result to cash in on brand ambassadorial deals.

The entrepreneur explained she could not provide information about her GWR sing-a-thon outcome because she had lost access to her account. Critics, however, doubted her claim.

What led to the deactivation of Afua's GWR account?

During a discussion on United Showbiz, she stressed that her GWR account was deactivated due to unsanctioned team member activities. She divulged that the identified person unsuccessfully applied for other GWR singing attempts with her account.

According to Afua Asantewaa, several team members had login details to her GWR account to undertake different tasks while attempting to break the current sing-a-thon record and set a new milestone.

She disclosed that she discovered why the GWR deactivated her account after the organisation most recently activated it, providing information about how several applications for new sing-a-thon attempts were cancelled.
