Quick Glance: Nigerian Chess Champion Sets New Record in 58-Hour Marathon
- A Nigerian chess champion, Tunde Onakoya, played chess for 58 hours in New York City's Times Square to break the Guinness World Record for the longest chess marathon.
- Onakoya aims to raise $1 million for children's education across Africa through the record attempt.
- The Guinness World Record organization has yet to comment on Onakoya's attempt, as it sometimes takes weeks for the organization to confirm a new record.
- Onakoya's attempt was closely followed in Nigeria, where he regularly organizes chess competitions for young people living on the streets, given that more than 10 million children in the West African country are out of school.
