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.

In a recent development, human rights attorney Deji Adeyanju has located activist and politician Usman Okai Austin at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Command of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Abuja.

Austin was reportedly taken from his Abuja residence in a forceful manner by DSS operatives, who allegedly did not present an arrest warrant during the operation.

Omoyele Sowore, a prominent activist and former presidential candidate, has publicly condemned Austin’s detention. Sowore asserts that the DSS’s actions are a response to allegations made by Austin against Kogi State Governor Usman Ododo.

According to Sowore, Governor Ododo was displeased with Austin’s claims that he had illicitly acquired ₦13 billion since assuming office and sought the DSS’s assistance to interrogate Austin regarding these accusations.

Also, Sowore criticized the DSS’s involvement, describing it as an abuse of power and a tactic to suppress citizens demanding accountability. He stated, “This is an utterly ridiculous reason to arrest Austin Okai… the DSS must release Usman Okai Austin immediately!”

As of now, the DSS has not issued an official statement regarding Austin’s arrest, and calls for his immediate release continue to grow.

Governor Usman Ododo has previously faced allegations of corruption. A group of Kogi state indigenes recently accused him of diverting ₦13.4 billion and demanded immediate restitution.

Former Super Eagles star Sunday Mba has encouraged Ademola Lookman to consider a move to Chelsea when the summer transfer window opens.

Lookman is expected to leave Atalanta at the end of the season, but his next destination remains uncertain, with several top European clubs reportedly interested. Mba believes the Premier League side would be the perfect fit for the former Leicester City forward.

“If I were in charge of transfers at Chelsea, I would go all out for Lookman. He would be a great addition because of his playing style,” said Mba, who was part of Nigeria’s AFCON-winning squad in 2013.

“Lookman should make Stamford Bridge his next home. His pace, dribbling, creativity, and goal-scoring ability match exactly what Enzo Maresca wants in a forward. With all due respect, Chelsea’s current strikers struggle to offer even two of those qualities.”
