The National Youth Organizer of the NDC, George Opare Addo, popularly known as Pablo, along with his deputy, welcomed and congratulated Seidu Rafiwu at Accra's Black Star Square for his successful record-breaking walk from Techiman to Accra.
Seidu Rafiwu has concluded his attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the farthest distance covered on foot by a male.
The current record for the walking marathon was set by America's Jesse Casteneda in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, in September 1976, after walking a distance of 228.930 kilometers.
In a widely circulated video that has garnered pride from many Ghanaians, EMT Douglas Boakye, a member of Seidu Rafiwu's team, announced the end of the record attempt.
He also mentioned that Seidu was now pursuing a personal record, aiming to walk from Techiman to Accra, covering a distance of 383 kilometers.
Seidu embarked on this ambitious journey last Friday, starting his longest walking marathon (Walkathon) from Techiman in the Bono East Region, with the goal of reaching Accra.
Meanwhile, the Techiman South Member of Parliament, Martin Adjei-Mensah Korsah, has rewarded Seidu Rafiwu with an amount of GHS10,000 for his remarkable attempt to set a new Guinness World Record.
