Adu Safowaah is an actor, creative director, entrepreneur, and Chief Executive Officer of Aketesia Group.
Regina Adu Safowaah, a Ghanaian showbiz personality, will be attempting Guinness World Records’ longest speech marathon.
The outspoken actress has received not-too-good comments after her announcement a month ago but says she is not someone who is moved by negative comments.
She told Graphic Showbiz in a chat that she is someone who goes for what she wants and nothing stops her from that. When I set out to do something, nothing stops me so those who are not in support of what I want to do should stop wasting their time because that is not going to happen.
Despite the negative comments she receives, Adu-Safowaah said few individuals were solidly behind her. The record activity will take place at the La Palm Royal Beach Hotel from February 9 to 14, 2024.
In an interview with Kwame Dadzie on Joy FM’s Twitter Spaces, she said she would be speaking about things that will project Ghana and Africa.
“With the longest speech marathon, your topics are irrelevant to them. But whatever you say must mean something to the public. So I come as a public figure or a lecturer talking about issues of life.
I told them that I would talk about Africa, precisely Ghana. So if I take Greater Accra Region, I am to tell them about their culture, what they are about, what they believe in,” Adu said.
As part of the rules, a question and answer session can be staged as part of the attempt but the people asking the question must not be seen.
Each speech must be a minimum of 5 minutes long. Apart from pauses lasting not more than 30 seconds in between speeches, the recorded activity must be continuous. The speech must also be unscripted, spontaneous, and significantly different from each other.
