To set a new Guinness World Record, Subair Enitan, a 200-level student at Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife, Osun State, has completed the longest handcloth washing by an individual.
Enitan completed an astonishing 58-hour hand wash-a-thon early Monday morning, having begun her quest on Friday afternoon at the Student Union Building Motor Park inside the university campus. Her attempt was witnessed by thousands of students who rallied around her, offering their support and encouragement.
The event also attracted various student artists and university officials who paid solidarity visits to the task pavilion to cheer her on.
Upon completion of the 58 hours, Enitan was taken in the school ambulance to the institution’s clinic for a medical check. Speaking before heading to the clinic, an elated Enitan expressed her fulfillment at having completed the task in front of her mother, Omogbolabo Afolake, who had been at the venue for over two days.

“I am very fulfilled to have completed the task right in front of my mum, friends and colleagues who thronged this venue to show love and support my ambition,” she said.
Enitan had applied to the Guinness World Record for the task last June, and with this achievement, she is set to make her mark in the record books.
