Brian Nwana smashes Guinness record for most fast food visits.

The Guinness Book of World Records officially recognized 22-year-old Munachimso Brian Nwana for visiting 150 different fast food establishments in 24 hours, surpassing the former record of 100 held by the Canadian YouTuber Eric Decker, also known as Airrack.

Before Airrack’s record, TikTok stars Nick DiGiovanni and the late Lynn “Lynja” Davis held the record. 

Obstacles to the record:

Nwana noted that the previous records were set in New York, which has many restaurants. 

In contrast, he set the record in Abuja, a less densely populated area, posing a greater challenge. 

Additionally, the rules for this record prohibit the use of private transportation, allowing only public transportation. 

As a result, breaking the record in Abuja was significantly harder than in New York, where there are many yellow taxis, or in Canada.

“New York has clusters of restaurants and adequate public transportation systems, so doing this in Abuja was much more daunting and challenging,” he said.

Brian’s incredible feat has been officially recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records.

He completed his entire mission on foot, walking over 25 kilometres (15 miles) from Chicken Republic in Gwarinpa’s residential zone to Kilimanjaro, a fast food restaurant in the city centre. 

To break the record, he started and ended his journey at 5 p.m., taking a nine-hour break for sleep between midnight and 9 a.m. 

Furthermore, he had to purchase and consume at least one meal or drink at each restaurant, with a minimum of 75% of the orders being food. 

Brian remarked that he “probably ate enough to last a week,” and he and his team consumed the meals he purchased.

The meals he ate ranged between shawarma, pizza, fried chicken and burgers, with his favourite meals being Nigerian delicacies such as moin moi and àmàlà.

“This record goes to show that the Nigerian food space is worth paying attention to,” Brian said, admitting that part of the incentive to break the record was to promote the food business in Nigeria’s capital city; Abuja.

“I would like to encourage people from around the world to come and explore the Nigerian food space,” he added.
