In his words, “Finally yesterday, I stopped by Mobolaji Johnson Arena (Onikan Stadium) to identify with and support a vibrant and creative young Nigerian, who is also a medical Doctor @foladavidart, currently embarking on the world’s largest drawing by an individual. This demonstration of creativity with cause is one I am compelled to support.
The strength of Nigeria is in its youthful population, which I believe should be harnessed. Not only is this brilliant young man demonstrating his capacity, he is showcasing to the world that Nigeria has a wide spectrum of brilliant and dynamic young people, who can achieve anything they set their minds to accomplish, whilst doing so for the pride and delight of our beloved country.
I visited him around 5 pm, and by 9 pm yesterday, he was reported to have broken the previous record and still going! I congratulate him for taking this bold step, for shinning with his talents on the global stage and for bringing honour to our nation.
Our commitment to the New Nigeria where more youths will become even more productive, in all sectors, remains unwavering. -PO”
