Afua Asantewaa Aduonum has once again made remarks about her previous attempt to break a Guinness World Record.

Asantewaa failed at her Guinness World Record attempt for the longest singing marathon. According to Asantewaa, she had other record ideas before choosing the sing-a-thon.

In an interview on the Okukuseku Talk show, Asantewaa said she had wanted to attempt to break the record for the fastest 100 metres run in heels by a woman but was advised against it by her husband.

Afua Asantewaa said she instead chose the sing-a-thon because it was a way for her to link her personal goal of achieving the record to the national goal of spreading Ghanaian music globally.

"I initially wanted to try the fastest 100 metres run in heels by a woman. That was my first choice. But my husband advised me against it. He said I should go for something I was passionate about and would not give up easily.

“I'm a very passionate person and I love music, so I decided to go for the longest singing marathon. I also wanted to promote Ghanaian music and make it more popular, like the Nigerians have done.

“That was my motivation, to link my action to a national goal, which is to put Ghana music on the global stage and make it enjoyable and attractive for every Ghanaian," she said.

The current record for fastest 100 metres in high heels (female) is 13.557 seconds, achieved by Majken Sichlau (Denmark) during the Tarnby Games 2015 at Tarnby Stadium in Copenhagen, Denmark, on 2 May 2015.

Asantewaa has expressed her gratitude for the public support during her attempt to break the sing-a-thon record.

"It was a concert that brought the society together and united. I'm glad if it has inspired others to try other records," she said.
