Ghanaian showbiz personality, Regina Adu Safowaah, on Friday night, kick-started an attempt at the Guinness World Record for the longest speech marathon.
The record-setting endeavour is underway at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel from February 9 to 14, 2024.
Several wish wishers have began trooping to the venue to support her.
Safowaah had earlier revealed her speech will focus on topics that highlight Ghana and Africa.
She emphasized that although the subjects for the longest speech marathon are not specified, she aims to address issues of public significance, presenting herself as a public figure or lecturer discussing life matters.
Safowaah said she will delve into the culture, beliefs, and essence of the Greater Accra Region as part of her extensive speech.
Remarkably, she will be using English, French, and Twi as her chosen languages.
The Guinness World Records attempt comes with specific rules, allowing for a question and answer session, provided the questioners remain unseen.
Each speech must last a minimum of 5 minutes, with pauses not exceeding 30 seconds in between speeches.

Regina’s attempt comes on the back of Afua Asantewaa (sing-a-thon), Chef Failatu Abdul Razak (cook-a-thon), Ace-Liam Nana Sam (youngest artist), and Dela Gomey (lipstick applications in 30 seconds).
All four are yet to receive their recognition from the Guinness World Record on their attempt.
Meanwhile, another Ghanaian chef, Ebenezer Smith also called Millennium Chef is also embarking on the longest cooking marathon.
He is set to break the record by cooking for 360 hours equivalent to 15 days non-stop.
Millennium Chef commenced his attempt on February 1 and will end on February 15, at the Amadia Shopping Center at Spintex in Accra.
