In an awe-inspiring display of endurance, passion, and
broadcasting brilliance, Nigerian radio icon George Iniabasi Essien, famously
known as Mighty George, has smashed the Guinness World Record for
the longest marathon hosting a radio talk show—and he’s not stopping yet.
Broadcasting live from the studios of Comfort 95.1 FM
in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, Mighty George officially crossed the 88-hour
mark—surpassing the previous record held by Japan’s Taishi Masuoka since 2017.
As of today, he’s surpassed an astonishing 88 hours, 8
seconds, and is powering through with unwavering energy toward a 100-hour goal.
This remarkable feat isn’t just about airtime—it’s a
celebration of 20 years in radio, a tribute to his fans, and a bold statement
about the spirit and resilience of Akwa Ibom people and Nigerians at large.
With thousands tuning in across radio waves and social
media, the event has drawn national attention and overwhelming support from
colleagues, celebrities, and listeners worldwide.
“This is not just my record—this is a win for everyone
who believes in the power of voice and perseverance,” Mighty George shared on
air.
As the clock ticks toward May 1st, the airwaves remain
alive with history in the making. Mighty George is not only breaking
records—he’s rewriting them.
Stay tuned. The mic is still hot. History is still
being made.
