Russian officials believe Koku is 129-years-old, which would make her the oldest person in the world.

Koku, from the village of Bratskoye in the south-western Russian Chechen Republic, celebrated her birthday at the start of this month with her six grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.

She said: “I see other people eating healthy and doing fitness routines, I have no idea why I have lived so long.”

She added: “It was God’s will. I did nothing to make it happen.

“I have not had a single happy day in my life. I have always worked hard, digging in the garden.

“I am tired. Long life is not at all God’s gift for me – but a punishment.”

She added: “Looking back at my unhappy life, I wish I had died when I was young. I worked all my life. I did not have time for rest or entertainment.”

Russian officials say all Koku’s birth documents were lost during the Second Chechen War
