You people have started again, may God deliver you from this. Someone is out there achieving destiny, you are online promoting tribalism, beht why?

We learnt very well from the tribalists themselves. How Obi win the whole 5 states in the southeast at 99% if not suffocating tribalism?

How many games he won, how many lose?

All this trying to break Guinness world record of whatever is brain draining. The energy spent on just such period of time would affect so many other things.

Those who have been breaking whatever records since, what have they achieved after then?
At least they are not jobless.

Watch as other Nigerians attempt to break this record that no one thought of until now. Funny breed of people. Meanwhile, the reason he adduced for his attempt is suspect, dude wants to cash out. Simple!

He might have lost some games.

It was stated that playing for 58hrs without recording any lost. Kindly do more research, I may be wrong

Must you always talk unreasonably everytime? FYI there are lots of benefits in breaking a worthy guiness world record like this one he did.

Next time, think with your brain not your ear before you talk.

Sir, he never lost any game or it wouldn't be a record.

You must be talking from experience. Let me guess, you learnt the hard way thereby you purged yourself of tribalism after getting burnt. Learn how to play and don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Don't mind him. A lot of them have nothing doing with their lives, so just come online to waste it. Wasted destinies.

The condition of the record is that he must win every game. He is playing against a USA national chess master repeatedly, as well as against random members of the public. In breaking this record he is also raising funds for the children he teaches chess to.

You should be ashamed for the negativity you are showing here.
That can’t be the condition…a Us national master couldn’t beat him even once in a 50 hours?? I’m sorry that’s not possible.

Congratulations to Tunde Onakoya, for breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest Chess marathon in the heart of Times Square!
It is an incredible feat of mental stamina and focus. Not only did he break the record, but he did it for a great cause - raising awareness and funds for children's education in Africa. His achievement is truly inspiring.

Did you hear how many hours he played in total?
