DJ Obi, one of Nigeria’s foremost, has broken the Guinness World Record for Longest DJ Set.
The current record for Longest DJ Set is 200 hours and was set on November 19, 2014 in Dublin, Ireland. DJ Obi attempts to make history with a continuous 240 hour, but today, he went past the 200-hour mark at Sao Café located in Lekki Phase One.
It has not been easy so far, just like all good things. After DJ Obi’s team put the finishing details on the technical aspects, a short video from the Guinness World Record’s team and a short prayer, Obi kicked off minute-one of his 240 hours at 11:30pm on Wednesday 22 June, 2016. Opening to a packed house, he mixed mostly House music from different countries, which was more than enough to keep the crowd moving.
By 6am on July 1, 2016, he equalled the World Record of 200 hours held by DJ Norberto Loco of Poland, and by the time the clock struck 7 am, Obi Ajuonoma, successfully set a new Guinness World Record of 201 hours, for longest DJ set in the world. There is still be 39 more hours for him to extend that record, and reach a personal and world best of 240 hours.
