He came with a mat, a cloth to cover the mat and a buta so he could do ablution when necessary and say his prayers.

In the comment section, someone said he had been there since Failatu started the cookathon at the midnight of January 1, 2024.

She aims to set her record by cooking for 120 hours or more. The current official record holder is Alan Fisher.

However, a Ugandan chef named Mama D has unofficially surpassed that and is awaiting the verdict from the Guinness World Records.
