Nigerian artist, Lola Mewu receives approval to begin longest painting marathon
Lola Mewu is a Nigerian artist who is attempting to break the world record for the longest painting marathon.
She has loved art since childhood and after completing a law degree in 2015, she pursued makeup artistry. Lola blended makeup with face painting, and in 2019, she debuted as a professional face painter at Sapphire events.
In 2022, she rediscovered her artistic skills, finding solace in paper sketching and mastering digital art techniques. As NFT art bloomed, she showcased her digital artworks and sold 22 pieces.
Lola received a mail of approval from the Guinness World Records, which means her attempt will be verified if it is accomplished.
After spending months in preparation for her record-breaking attempt, Lola Mewu is prepared. Her record-breaking attempt will take place from Saturday, October 28, 2023, to Monday, October 30, 2023.
On the heels of Hilda Baci’s victory, the chef who broke the Guinness record for the longest cooking marathon, many people have declared interest in breaking a world record, but have not succeeded.
Will Lola Mewu become the next Guinness World Records champion from Nigeria? She has our best wishes.
A fire outbreak occurred at the Lekki residence of Orezi, the Nigerian singer.
The singer shared a video of the incident via his Instagram page on Tuesday.
The footage released shows the properties of the singer destroyed by the fire.
In a caption, Orezi said he had received a call from his neighbour who informed him that his house was on fire.
He said he initially thought it was a joke but was confronted with the devastating reality after rushing to his house.
“Last night was really hectic. Still trying to figure out and wrap my head around all that happened,” the singer wrote.
“I am sitting here asking myself why me. God is indeed merciful. Can’t thank God enough.
“I was at a meeting in Lekki county last night around 11.48 pm when I got a call from my neighbour, Bobrisky, that my house was on fire. I initially thought this was a joke.
“I was like, ‘Which kind yeye joke bob Dey give me so?’ Immediately I raced down to my house, what I saw broke me.”
Naira Marley has been spotted in public for the first time since his release from police custody.
The singer was arrested in October alongside Sam Larry, his associate, following allegations of their involvement in the death of Mohbad, Marley’s former signee.
They were released on bail in November after spending over five weeks in detention.
In a now-viral video, Marley was spotted in the company of Sam Larry and Zinoleesky, one of his signees.
They were all smiles as they visited an orphanage in Lagos.
In another video, the trio were seen giving out food items to the needy.
The video has sparked several mixed reactions on social media, with some happy that they had regained their freedom and others expressing their displeasure at the Mohbad case remaining inconclusive.
