Chess-in-slums Founder, Onakoya, Returns To Hero's Welcome (video) by NairaOcean: 12:02pm On Apr 24 |
Chess-in-Slums founder Tunde Onakoya, who recently surpassed the world record for the longest-ever chess marathon, clocking an impressive 60 hours, received a heartwarming welcome upon his return to Nigeria on Wednesday. He was greeted with a heartwarming reception, complete with singing and dancing at the airport. Onakoya broke the record of Norwegian players, Hallvard Haug Flatebø and Sjur Ferkingstad, who played for 56 hours and 9- minutes in 2018. The new record holder said he attempted to raise funds and awareness about providing educational opportunities to underprivileged children across Africa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCbWDz3jpc4
