Warri based Anambra born extremely talented young lad, Chinonso Eche has finally laid his hands on his Guinness World Record certificate after exhibiting his skills to break the record. He eventually picked his award two days ago.
The budding talent attempted and eventually set a new Guinness World Record of making one hundred and eleven (111) touches with a football. In other words, he made the most consecutive football (soccer) touches with his legs, that is 111, in one minute while balancing another football on the head.

This attempt was overseen by two time-keepers, a couple of independent witnesses, family and friends and players of Warri Wolves football club of Delta state as Amazing Kid Eche blew everyone away with his unwavering determination.
The approval had stall for a while as it was taking too long for the Guinness World Record body to authenticate the proceedings but after all verifications, the award was given after firstly confirming it on their Twitter page.
The attempt started at exactly 11.20am and also ended at exactly 11.21am to fulfill the one minutes needed and Amazing Kid Eche had already recorded sixty-six (66) more than the previous Guinness World record which was just fifty (50).
His manager Chukwuemeka Ezugha was excited about the development after series of mail sent to ensure the boy was awarded for his efforts.
I believe this is the right time for Nigerians to now shower the young Ambassador of the country with some encomiums.
The attempt took place on the 14th of November, 2019 at the Warri Township stadium.
