Felicity Asantewaa has been officially recognised by Guinness World Records (GWR) for washing the most cars in eight hours, achieving an impressive count of 60. This record-breaking feat took place on March 9, 2024, in Accra, Ghana, and surpassed the previous record by five cars.
A statement from GWR highlighted Felicity’s dedication and hard work: “The most cars washed in eight hours by an individual is 60 and was achieved by Felicity Asantewaa (Ghana) in Accra, Ghana, on March 9 2024. Felicity broke the record by 5.” Her determination and efficiency in accomplishing this task have earned her a well-deserved spot in the Guinness World Records, bringing pride to Ghana.
Asantewaa, a known car enthusiast, has made a significant mark with her accomplishments, demonstrating exceptional skill and speed. Her achievement celebrates individual excellence and puts Ghana on the map for such remarkable records.
In contrast to Asantewaa’s genuine success, a recent scandal involving Ghanaian Chef Smith highlights the importance of integrity in record-setting endeavours. Chef Smith falsely claimed to have set a record for the longest cook-a-thon, presenting a forged certificate at a press conference. Investigations by Ghanaian journalists and social media users revealed the deception, leading to a confirmation from Guinness World Records that he was not recognised for any such achievement. Chef Smith has since apologised to the nation in an emotional interview, expressing deep regret for his actions.
Asantewaa’s achievement is a testament to genuine effort and dedication, which inspire many.
