Another Nigerian Listed In GWR For Reading 25 Novels In 145 Hours.

– John Obot

Like that street parlance says ‘Nigerians are not smiling’ at all as they are bent on  taking up the challenges to make or break Guinness World Record for leisure.

It is John Obot again, another Nigerian from the South-South geo-political zone who has broken the record for the longest time a person ever read aloud. He will be reading 25 novels in 145 hours.

This cerebral Nigerian we gathered has started as he has broken the record.

I wonder if GWR knows who Nigerians are. Do they even realize that we’re Nigerians? The volume of books we read just to make it through Secondary school

No exaggeration.

GWR is not ready for what’s coming. Nigerians alone will own an entire section of your website in just one year.

You’re playing with people that casually endanger their lives every day just for the fun of it:

We climb roofs without cables;

We board and alight from moving vehicles every day (even kids can do this);

We remove items from the fire with our bare hands;

to peel off electrical wiring, we literally chew the wire open;

Our kids make local fireworks that go off so loudly, it could be mistaken for teπorist attacks overseas;

We clear 15 acres of farmland manually without gloves;

To siphon fuel into our car or generator tanks, we draw it first into our mouth, ingest a bit to check if it’s unleaded petrol, then we let the pipe continue;

Some of us have carried the malaria parasite in our bodies for so long, we should now be donating blood samples to the United Nations to test us for immortality. At a point, when the parasite doesn’t see any drugs forthcoming, it just hisses and leaves on its own;
