Nigerian Record Holders
Nigerians have been on a trailblazing course in the last few years and have snatched for themselves some pretty sweet records on the World Guinness Book of Record list.
You would recall that Joshua Marcus Usoro aka Jason formerly 9jason attempted to break a world record for longest dance marathon by an individual in 2017.
9Jason is 26-year-old graduate of Covenant university with BSc in Management Information System
In a similar development, DJ Obi also broken the Guinness World Record for Longest DJ Set. The ten-day set which began from 10 p.m, June 22nd, ran through 10 p.m. on July 1st, 2016.
The former record for Longest DJ Set was 200 hours and was set on November 19, 2014 in Dublin, Ireland.
DJ Obi made history with a continuous 240 hour, and went past the 200-hour mark at Sao Café located in Lekki Phase One.
These are only two of many others who have strived for excellence in their areas and reached it.
Big congrats to our dreamers.
