Ondo Schoolboy Becomes Guinness World Record Holder by adebenson155: 1:51pm On Feb 15, 2023 |
Ondo State, Nigeria, has produced yet another world record holder as a secondary school student has set a new record in the Guinness World Records. The student, Gbenga Ezekiel, a senior secondary school one student of Ijapo High School in Akure, achieved the feat of most skips in one minute on one leg, beating the previous record set by Bangladesh’s Rasel Islam. Ezekiel recorded 265 skips in his attempt, breaking the previous record of 262 skips. The 16-year-old student's feat was recorded at the Ondo State Sports Complex in Akure and later ratified by the Guinness World Records after they verified the authenticity of his attempt. Gbenga's success was communicated to the national coach of the Nigeria Rope Skipping Federation, Chubuisi Ukandu, and it has also been updated on the Guinness World Records website. The young student expressed his delight at achieving this feat, saying that he took inspiration from videos he saw on the internet. He also thanked his coach for introducing him and other students to rope skipping and expressed his desire to do more in the future. Gbenga Ezekiel becomes the first athlete from Ondo State, the first Nigerian, and the first African rope skipper to achieve a Guinness World Records title. Rope skipping, also known as jump rope, is a popular sport and recreational activity that involves jumping over a rope swung under one's feet and over one's head. It is a simple yet effective form of exercise that improves cardiovascular health, coordination, and endurance. Rope skipping has evolved from a simple playground activity to a competitive sport that is recognized by the International Olympic Committee. Achieving a world record is no easy feat, and it takes a lot of hard work, determination, and practice. Gbenga Ezekiel's success is a testament to his dedication and commitment to his chosen sport. His achievement has brought honor and recognition to himself, his school, and his state. It also serves as an inspiration to other young people to pursue their passions and dreams and to aim for excellence in everything they do. Source: Operanews 2 Likes

With all due respect, good achievement, congrats and accolades to him. But, please my people in Africa especially, let's endeavor to be known for bringing in great innovations and inventions for mankind like writing great books like chimmamanda Adichie, building powerful automobiles like Elon Musk, life saving apps like twitter, Amazon, Facebook and co, not just skipping ropes and other gymnastics. It does not have real-life values. While we enjoy great inventions like electricity, smartphones, Air conditioners, cars etc, we must work hard to manufacture ours efficiently with no external help. If whites are wiped out from the face of the earth, does it mean we would unprogress and our lives would be hard again without new inventions. Think about it. Thnx. |

Only a virgin woman can birth a child with great destiny. His mother is a very courteous woman. A woman of virtue. If you have been fvcked and mounted by more than one man, forget it, your daughters can't make any tangible progress in life except fvcking men for money. Never marry a single mother. She's a curse. There's a reason men don't stay in her life. Never marry a woman who has been fvcked before she met you. She lacks decency. Your children will lack decency. Girls are a copy of their mothers. When you're ready for marriage, find a virgin woman and have a peaceful lasting home. |
