A video of the ongoing sing-a-thon, sighted by YEN.com.gh on Facebook, showed Juliet in a relaxed mood singing some popular gospel Ghanaian songs.

The way she sang the songs with a low voice made it evident that she had prepared adequately.

Juliet Kwakye will be the second Ghanaian to attempt the record after Afua Asantewaa Aduonum tried but was disqualified for flouting the rules.

At the time of writing the report, the video had raked in over 300 likes and 200 comments.
