Ewaoluwa Olatunji, the Nigerian lady fondly called Ewa Cole, has been certified by the Guinness World Records (GWR) as the new holder for the longest marathon singing Christmas songs.
Ewa, who embarked on 24 hours of singing Christmas songs
from December 27 to 28, completed the task in 31 hours.
The certification by the GWR sees Ewa become the first
holder of the record in the world.
In her attempt to set the record, she did a rendition of
several classic Christmas songs such as ‘Deck the Halls’, ‘Frosty the Snowman’
and ‘Silent Night’.
The exercise took place at No 14, Louis Solomon Close,
Heritage Apartments, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Ewa earlier took to her Instagram page to share a video of
herself and well-wishers after she surpassed her target.
“Our girl did it! Stand up for the champion! 31 hours of
singing Christmas carol’s nonstop. The minimum requirement was 24 hours,” the
post reads.
“We are so excited and can’t wait for a feedback from
@guinessworldrecords. Ewa Cole’s the longest marathon of Christmas song, ended
the night with 31 hours and two minutes.
The 31 hour singalong in Nigeria featured all your favourite Christmas hits.

and 2 minutes. Thank you everyone for your support. We are grateful.”
Ewa now joins the growing list of Nigerians who have attempted to set new world records since the beginning of 2023.
