Mambu vipi. Anashikula. Sente kukunja likahapa. Karibusana. Ya. Kwa dina mini itwa chef Maliham Muhammad and born and raised in Mombasa. This year I'll be breaking two world records for the Guinness Book of World Records and on August 11 I'll be cooking non-stop in the title of home kitchen cooking marathon non-stop 75 hours. The record to break is from a USA chef called Rick Lee Lampkin and his record was 68. So I'll be cooking 35 hours and come November 15 I'll be cooking for the title the longest cooking marathon non-stop for under an individual alone and I'll be cooking 100 plus hours until we have verification from the Guinness World Record to whoever has broken the record I will be cooking 100 plus hours but today I'm here in Nairobi with my team and they're going to introduce themselves so that you guys get to know them as well. Hi guys. I'm called Jeff Infar. I'm from Countess Rose Ruan. Today we came to support our sister Jeff Malihas. You can see she's smiling. I'm an influential chef from Countess Rose Ruan. I've done a lot of cooking for many prominent people in Kenya. If you can follow me on my page you'll see more but today I've come to support our sister. We love her. We'll give her a lot of support because if she's a supporter I know she'll support us too. Hi hebarienu. My name is Rehana Baluchi. Natoka Mombasa. Tumikuja kumu support Malihas. We are team chef Malihas. Mimi na shuna habayas, bui-bui, amunauna brand. Atanimim Valishae. I'm the founder of women empowering the African women. Tumikuja kwa unye nye cave wa 2e 2e 1e Robi 2e zekum support Jeff Malihas. 2e zekuleta umshili nyumbani. Pasandeni. Labda penge na tugependo tu penge mwede kwa mwede safariya kwa villu lianza kwa tukapu muanzo. In 2019 as you know I cooked in August 7-5 hours nonstop but an Indian chef from Mumbai she cooked for 87 hours and took my record. So when corona hit I took a break from social media because of the quarantine and isolation and I lost two of my aunties and two of my uncles as well. So it was overwhelming and it really was too hard for me to actually do anything. I lost my job of five years working in an NGO company as well. So everything was crashing down on me. I had no sense of balance of what I was going to do and how I'm going to tackle. But then in last year December 2022, my daughter approached me and told me that ma'am you should go and do your Guinness World Record. You don't need to let your dream die because my ma'am wanted to become air hostess but she could not take the dream she passed away and she told me remember baby so me sitaki kukuna even doteako iikufe so do it. So in December I applied again to Guinness World Record and this time I applied for two records because you know I go by the term be phenomenal or be forgotten and I needed that. It takes three months for Guinness World Record to accept your application which they did in February this year 2023. I accepted my application under two titles the first one the longest home kitchen cooking marathon and I set it at 75 hours which I'm supposed to break on August 11 and the second title will be the longest cooking marathon as an individual which I had written 100 hours come Hilda Basi Nigerian chef she did it for 100 hours so I went to Guinness World Record and I told them about that so they told me like we have to verify her first but then I changed my hours so now she took the hours which I did not expected because I had the same dream of making 100 hours so now I changed the hours into 100 plus hours which I can only say once we know the verification that she has achieved that dream so you still have that dream you're going to be the first person to win exactly it's not over until I say it's over maybe we could want to know the first time you came into the limelight we introduced you who introduced me to the Guinness World Record no in social media until so many people knew you I think a journalist from NTV she approached me and she did a story and that's where people knew about me and then my official sponsors were Pwani Oil and they had connection with the media and that's where I came in what about Ferra Siddica and others hopefully when they see this this information this media they will come through me they will come through you which I'm hoping maybe sometimes people may be like maybe you don't go some challenges the challenges you go through while you're cooking the challenges that I go through while I'm cooking I think basically it's the stamina the endurance right now I'm doing training in May 26th I did 45 hours training and in June 16th I'll be doing 55 hours training cooking 100 recipes and in July 14th I'll be cooking for 65 hours and producing 200 recipes so come August I'll be cooking so 5 hours non stop producing 500 recipes so with that I have to go to training I have to train my team as well we need to have this organization the planning and the communication as well yes you are competing there you started cooking because she also maybe something that you can eat when in 2019 when I lost the title over an Indian chef I got devastated I got heart broken discourage as well because now my family were like you know mifanya yote na haulipu na Guinness world record so so mifanya nini but as much as I'm cooking to make a good living I also want to aspire to make a difference because this is what I want because this is what I want and there are talents out there so people they shy away from cameras they shy away from the public eye so when you come up you are the voice of them so now they have that moral that motivation that if chef meleha can do it I can do it too so apart from cooking maybe something else you do I do cooking classes I teach ladies and gents how to cook mostly are newly brides to me newlyweds and also some chefs from hotels they brush up their skills we have a crash course of one week and also I am a Mombasa food tour guide I have tourists coming from Hawaii from Texas and I take them around Mombasa showcasing our culture showcasing our history as well and also our food we have yummy food so they enjoy and then they go out there and they share the video with their friends as well saying that in Mombasa we have this chef and she is good she showcasing Mombasa in a larger scale yes it doesn't it doesn't because I have hope I have faith in God as well because nothing is impossible we will come together as one because I am Kenyan I was born in 001 but my blood runs 254 yes for the past one and a half months I have been sending e-mails to all the websites hoping for one door to open or many doors to open but yes I have been texting them and sending them e-mails so when they stand by so Nisubra Tuna Fakwanao but August come we will know who is going to be my official sponsors and who is coming in yes I can say that not from the Imamo sheikhs but from the Muslim friends I can say our families really come in and tell me that we can give you whatever we have so you accept Kuna Wombasa award yes for those who want to support you want to figure out what your management is they can go through my social media handles it's in tiktok, instagram youtube channel facebook twitter chef Maliham Muhammad donations are sent to my MPSN number 0706 349 213 my brand manager is called Fate Brandy and also my operations manager is Rehana Baluchi the numbers and contacts are all over the social media handles chef you are a well known chef especially we are expecting maybe a praise then to you but because we want to present Kenya but we don't want to support anyone who is coming in how does it feel in your own country how politicians who are attacking people what can you say about that I don't feel discouraged I don't feel let down because I have to understand we might be going through something that we have no idea about but I know for sure if one person tells another person it can figure whether he likes it or they don't like it the message will be delivered chef if you are a chef you can say chef maybe you are single you are married I am a single mum of two beautiful kids my first daughter is 19 years old and my last born is 10 years old so what is the message that you are going through I don't know because you call me chef Gordon Ramsay because I don't know okay chef you have dreams you have dreams you have dreams you have dreams what is the message that you are going through never give up keep on pushing keep on working hard focus on yourself as well always this African proverb that I always tell people that when a lion wakes up in the morning it tells itself it needs to run to hunt or it will starve and then antelope when it wakes up in the morning it tells itself it needs to run or it will be caught and get killed so everybody out there when the sun goes up in the morning on running no matter what obstacle you have keep on pushing ya have hope, have faith and believe in yourself one day you will not be able to introduce yourself when you walk in that door what are you running in? na ni kitu kipi ambacho ki na tukupu fanya ya ni usukume kabisa kika igunona like oh no na zima have to work hard I have two daughters who depend on me I have my family who depend on me I have my community who depend on me I have the women of Kenya and the world who depend on me so I have to rise up in all occasion and fight no matter what because you either be phenomenal or be forgotten thank you thank you what are some of the benefits of being in the world record well you get global recognition people they know you you can become brand ambassadors from different brands and also you get endorsement as well people take you like also I go to mentor youth out there in high schools and ya it's good when you talk to the youth kwa onakua so if you tell them to do stuff and believe in themselves and work hard they will learn na pengi na kwa na kwa na kwa kwa kwa initjuku kitabu money was well diesel but you are out there to make a difference this calling kwa bapas. We iskwa mkatu asububu wa faniakazi, bato you don't have a papas. So what's your calling, what's your why? Ya when you wake up in the morning you have a why that pushes you. It's every one of us has a why. So you need to find out your why and keep on doing it. Ok, now you can talk with your fans outside there, watching you right now. To my fans out there, I cannot do this alone. In May 26th, I tried, I spend a lot of money, a lot of my savings. But now it's impossible, there is a lot of work, if it was easy, then everybody would be breaking their records but it takes dedication, sacrifice, commitment and money as well. So with your kind donations sent through my MPSA number, inshallah I'll make a pay bill as well, we can make a difference and we can make magic. And we can show the world that also Kenyan cuisine can be put in the culinary map of the world. Before you went to the MPSA, I was just asking, what you really want to do, if someone knows you, can you make sure that he wants to tell you about the MPSA? Yeah, it's possible, they have to contact me and we can have a meeting and we can discuss. But the record breaking of November 15, I will do it in Nairobi, that's for sure. Yes, because it's going to be massive, it's going to be big and we are going to make sure the whole world knows what we are capable because we are marathoners and that's in our blood. Oh sure, maybe you share your number, somebody wants to support you with the intro there. Yeah, my MPSA number is 0706349213. 0706349213, the name is Malihah Islam Muhammad. Thank you so much, I wish you all the best. Thank you for having me.
