Just like Helen, many other Nigerians have broken the GWR. Some of them include celebrity chef Hilda Bassey, aka Hilda Baci, and chess master Tunde Onakoya, who completed a 58-hour chess marathon.

Nigerians are also known to support their own and they did not disappoint in hailing Helen to achieve this feat.
