According to China News Service, despite her very old age, a local doctor Abdul Rusuli checked Alimiha Seiti over on her birthday and found normal blood pressure and blood sugar levels.
The Gerontological Society of China named Alimiha as the country’s oldest person in a 2013 report and a London body Carrying the Flag World Records recognises her claim to be the world’s oldest person.
But Guinness World Records, with a different standard of proof of age, lists Jeanne Calment as the world’s oldest ever person. Frenchwoman Ms Calment was born in 1875 and died in 1997, having lived 122 years and 164 days.
Celebrating her birthday, Alimiha revealed she loves talking to people and often sings when she is in a good mood. She also said she loves having visitors and that someone comes to see her most days.
