Chess master and founder of Chess in Slums Africa, Tunde Onakoya, met with President Bola Tinubu in Lagos on Monday night, where he presented his Guinness World Record certificate for the longest chess marathon.

The meeting was revealed through a post on the president’s official X (formerly Twitter) account.

In April, Onakoya made history alongside American chess player Shawn Martinez by playing for 64 consecutive hours in New York City, setting a new Guinness World Record.

The duo surpassed Onakoya’s previous record of 60 hours, which had been briefly overtaken by a Norwegian pair earlier in 2024.
