The former record of 100 fast food joints visited in just 24 hours was set in 2023 by American YouTuber Eric Decker, known as Airrack, in New York. To break the record, at least one food or drink item must be purchased and consumed at each restaurant, and at least 75% of the orders must be for food.
22-year-old Munachimso Brian Nwana, a content creator from Nigeria, has been officially recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records for visiting 150 different fast food establishments in 24 hours.
The record was particularly difficult to achieve because Abuja has a smaller population than previous record-holding cities, one of which was New York. Furthermore, the guidelines for this particular record prohibit the use of private transportation, forcing Brian to complete the entire mission on foot.
The Nigerian content creator had to walk more than 25 kilometers from Chicken Republic in Gwarinpa's residential area to Kilimanjaro, a fast food restaurant in the city center.

One of Brian's reasons for breaking 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 said.
The guidelines required Brian to purchase and consume at least one meal or beverage at each restaurant, with at least 75% of his orders being food. He jokingly remarked that he "probably ate enough to last a week," as he and his team shared the meals he bought.
His diet was varied, including shawarma, pizza, fried chicken, and burgers, but he particularly enjoyed Nigerian favorites like moin moi, a delicious, savory steamed bean pudding, and amala, a light drink.
