Nigerian doctor breaks Guinness World Record for largest drawing [VIDEO]

Fola David, a hyper-realist artist and doctor from Nigeria, has broken the record for the largest drawing by a single person.

The six-day endeavour was started on July 16 at Onikan Stadium by the Lagos-based visual artist, who wanted to sketch 1000 square metres of art that would highlight Nigeria’s many cultural traditions.

In a social media post that went viral on Friday night, he wrote: “Congratulations to us all. On Day 4 at 9 pm, we broke the current record of 629.98 square metres, but we are not done! As the goal is to get over 1000 square metres of canvas covered in drawings; we are currently at 689 square metres. Let’s Go!”

Prominent Nigerians who have been to David include Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate; Hilda Baci, the former winner of the GWR; and Farooq Oreagba, the businessman who commanded attention at the 2024 Ojude Oba Festival, to name a few.

David is an alumnus of the College of Medicine University of Lagos (CMUL), and the administration paid him a visit to express their support.
