Oside Oluwole, a Nigerian biochemist and automobile dealer known as Khoded, has recently achieved a remarkable feat by setting a new world record recognized by the Guinness World Records.

At just 24 years old, Oluwole successfully completed a marathon gaming session lasting an astonishing 75 hours, focusing on a popular soccer video game and engaging in over 500 matches during his marathon session.

This accomplishment surpasses the previous record of 50 hours, which was set by Englishman David Whitefoot back in 2022.

Oluwole’s determination to break this record was not merely for personal glory but also as a means to raise funds for a local hospital in his hometown of Ijebu-Ode, Nigeria.

The Guinness World Records highlighted Oluwole’s achievement, noting that his achievement stands out for the substantial margin by which he exceeded the previous record.

Initially set at 24 hours in 2010, the endurance record for continuous gaming has seen several challengers over the years, gradually increasing to 50 hours before Oluwole’s remarkable 75-hour milestone.

This impressive display of endurance and skill in gaming has garnered widespread recognition and serves as a testament to Oluwole’s commitment to both his passion for gaming and his community.

Dr Paul Enenche, the Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, has declared an end to live broadcasts of church services. Speaking during Sunday’s service, he urged members to make it a priority to attend church physically rather than relying on watching from home.

Referencing Hebrews 10:25, Pastor Enenche stressed the need for believers to gather together in one place, highlighting that the church assembly plays a vital role in spiritual growth. He noted that virtual participation should no longer be encouraged, except for those living abroad who may not have access to a Dunamis branch.

“For many of you used to watching from your living rooms, this might be the last time,” he said, as the church prepares to shut down live streams on platforms like Dunamis TV, YouTube, and Facebook, which previously aired all Sunday and midweek services.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has expressed strong confidence in President Bola Tinubu’s chances of dominating the 2027 presidential election. Speaking at a grand reception in Uyo to welcome Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno into the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akpabio said he believed Tinubu would secure 99.9% of the votes in the upcoming election.

Governor Eno recently left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the APC, blaming unresolved leadership issues within his former party for the switch. Akpabio, addressing the crowd, praised Eno’s political journey, noting how difficult it was for him to become governor. But he assured him that with his new political alignment, things would take a different turn.

He boldly predicted that Eno would become the first governor in the state’s history to be re-elected in 2027, adding that both the governor and President Tinubu were in for a smooth political ride moving forward.
