A Nigerian Mathematician, Uduak Nanga, has completed a 150-hour attempt to set a first Guinness World Record for the longest Mathematics lesson by an individual.
Nanga, popularly known as MC Calculus, who hails from Ikono local government area of Akwa Ibom State, began on April 23, 2024, and concluded the feat on Sunday, 28 April, at Kings Kid Christian International High School, Uyo, Akwa Ibom State capital. Checks on the official website of the Guinness World Records showed that there had never been any existing record holder for this category, making Nanga the first person to successfully complete the attempt.
The event drew top educationists within Akwa Ibom State and other spheres including the Commissioner for Education, Mrs Idongesit Etiebet; the Vice Chancellor of Akwa Ibom State University, Professor Nse Essien; Rector, Akwa Ibom State Polytechnic, Dr. Moses Umobong, and other eminent scholars who rallied their support for the mathematician.
