A remarkable feat of gaming endurance has been achieved by Vanessa Azoumaro, a third-year Social Work student at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).

She successfully completed a 56-hour video game marathon, playing Ghost of Tsushima non-stop from Friday, July 26, to Monday, July 29, 2024, at SG Mall in Kumasi.

Vanessa’s initial goal was to reach 48 hours, but she surpassed expectations, clocking an impressive 56 hours, 30 minutes, and 43 seconds.

A dedicated monitoring team ensured the integrity of her attempt, which is part of the Game-A-Thon challenge.

This achievement is the latest in a surge of Guinness World Records attempts from Ghana and Nigeria. Vanessa’s remarkable feat has earned her a potential place in the prestigious Guinness World Records, pending verification by the GWR team.
