Nigerian teacher John Obot, hailing from Akwa Ibom State, has achieved a remarkable milestone by breaking the existing Guinness World Record for the longest marathon reading aloud by an individual.
This achievement surpasses the previous record set by Isakov of Turkey, which stood at 124 hours.
John Obot’s incredible endeavour is currently unfolding in Uyo, the capital of Akwa Ibom State, and is anticipated to conclude around 1 a.m. on Tuesday.
At that point, Mr. Obot will have completed an astonishing 145 hours of continuous reading aloud, establishing a new world record in the process.
