A 200 level student in the Department of Linguistics and African Languages at Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Miss Subair Enitan is on course to break the Guinness World Record of longest washing hours by hand.
Enitan on Friday November 24, 2021 began a 50-hour hand wash-a-thon after she notified them in June 2023 with GWR fixing November 24, 2023 for the wash-a-thon attempt.
Enitan boasted that she would finish strong as title holder of longest hand washing hours after she must have completed 50 hours on Sunday.
“My background motivated me to embark on this wash-a-thon and the lessons life has taught me. The experience is unexplainable but it taught me to be selfless. I am confident that I will reach the set goal of 50 hours of hand wash and by God’s grace I will emerge victorious.
“Despite the massive support from my colleagues here, I pray for the grace of God. I will end this wash-a-thon on Sunday. I am setting the record, I can’t lose because nobody has done it before, so if I do it for 5 minutes, I have set the record. My parents are very supportive, I urge Nigerians to rally round me while I do the washing for 50 hours.”
