- It has emerged that Amadia Shopping Center invested massively in ensuring that the Chef Smith cook-a-thon was a success
- Naa Shuga, in a video, explained that Chef Smith attempted to announce the outcome without their knowledge, and this is what caused the confusion
- Many people who commented on the video called out Chef Smith over his actions
Details surrounding Chef Smith's arrest have emerged after it was confirmed that the chef had tricked Ghanaians into believing that he had been named the new world record holder for the longest cooking time by an individual.
In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh on Facebook, Chef Smith's former publicist, Sylvia Adjeley Konney, also known as Naa Shuga, revealed that Chef Smith's move to announce the results of the record attempt without informing the owner of Amadia Shopping Center played a role in his arrest.

Being the main sponsor for the 35-day cooking marathon, Naa Shuga said the owner of Amadia Shopping Center spent over GH¢300,000 in a bid to ensure that everything went on as planned.
"Amadia was the main sponsor in terms of financing and everything. They had to close two shops and convert them into a kitchen. Chef Smith was not picking up their calls after they heard about his planned conference. Nana Boroo is Amadia's brother,” Naa Shuga said in the video.
