Tunde Onakoya, the esteemed Founder of Chess In Slums Africa, is set to undertake a remarkable challenge on April 17th, 2024. In the bustling heart of Times Square, New York City, Onakoya will endeavor to break the Guinness World Record for the longest Chess marathon, aiming to play continuously for 58 hours without losing a game.

This audacious feat is not just about personal achievement; it is a profound endeavor in service of the dreams of millions of children across Africa who lack access to education. Onakoya’s marathon effort symbolizes resilience, determination, and a steadfast commitment to uplifting disadvantaged communities through the power of Chess.

In his own words, Onakoya reflects, “This is by far the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do, but one thing I know for sure is I would not be alone through it all.” He emphasizes the crucial role of collective support in this endeavor, rallying everyone to contribute towards raising awareness and support for the invaluable initiatives of Chess In Slums Africa and The Gift of Chess.

The event promises to be a testament to human endurance and the transformative potential of education and empowerment. As Onakoya embarks on this historic journey, he invites individuals and organizations alike to join him in championing the cause of education and empowerment for disadvantaged youth in Africa.
