She said all the monetary donations that she got during and after the event are still in her personal bank account.
Speaking further, Dammy revealed that she will, therefore, file an application with the Guinness World Records to make it official.
Dammy said; “All the money that came in for me is not yet up to the money that was used to start everything. And more than half of the supposed money that came in are still in my personal account.
“Finally, I know there have been many speculations about me not registering this just-concluded cooking, but my team and I have decided to embark on this new challenge next month.
“After the support I have received from fans, well-wishers, and many highly notable individuals in the society. I, Adeparusi Damilola popularly known as Chef Dammy and my team have decided to hold another cook-a-thon programme next month.
“This time, it will be held for a 150-hour, and it will be duly registered with Guinness World Records. Chef Dammy is coming back!”
