A Nigerian lady, Clara Chizoba Kronborg, has achieved the remarkable feat of breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest interviewing marathon, clocking an impressive 55 hours and 24 seconds.
Residing in Spain, Clara, who hosts a talk show on YouTube, soared to success with this daring endeavor, surpassing the previous record holder's time of 37 hours and 44 minutes, garnering significant visibility for her platform in the process.
Having grown up in modest circumstances in Onitsha, Nigeria, Clara expressed her fascination with the concept of success, which fueled her ambition to undertake this extraordinary challenge.
For her marathon interview, Clara meticulously curated a diverse lineup of 90 candidates from various nationalities, backgrounds, and professions, aiming to amplify their inspiring stories and foster meaningful global connections.
In her own words, “This record attempt was about bringing together diverse individuals, sharing their inspiring narratives, and forging meaningful connections on a global scale. I am committed to amplifying voices, particularly those of hardworking women, and using their stories to inspire others facing similar challenges.”
Despite encountering challenges such as enduring a painful menstrual period and coping with excessive water intake to maintain her voice, Clara persevered and ultimately clinched the Guinness World Record, solidifying her status as one of Nigeria's influential figures making waves on the global stage.
