On July 16, 2024, Dr Fola David embarked on an extraordinary journey to break the Guinness World Record for the largest drawing by an individual.
With the previous record set at 629.98 square meters by Ravi Sony in 5 days, Dr Fola David’s ambition and talent were on full display as he aimed to surpass this monumental feat.
By 9 PM on July 19, 2024, Dr Fola David had not only broken the existing record but had set a new benchmark, covering an astounding 689 square meters in just four days.
This remarkable achievement has captivated audiences and brought together people from all walks of life to celebrate art, culture, and the role of our ethnic diversity in the unity of Nigeria.
The event, aptly themed ‘Unity in Diversity’, has been a testament to the power of art in bridging cultural divides and fostering a sense of community. Attendees have been treated to an exhilarating experience of the various presentations of the National Troupe of Nigeria amongst others while watching Dr Fola David push through challenges and continue to expand his masterpiece.
We invite you all to witness the grand finale on Sunday, July 21, 2024, as Fola David puts the final strokes on this magnificent canvas.
