A young American girl has impressed the audience present at the chess marathon held by Nigeria’s own Tunde Onakoya at the Times Square, New York city, USA.
The girl is said to have been playing chess since the young age of four and has now nearly mastered the art of chess playing which was clearly evident in the video.
She was seen playing and deftly moving her players on the chess board with Tunde Onakoya as her able opponent.
Netizens following the challenge were filled with admiration at the young girl’s talent and has this to say:
@august_designs18: My child must know how to play chess or football, sha just something!
@fine_naza: Seeing this just makes me want to watch the queen’s gambit all over again 😍
@synogeneral: Na pah pah I dey hear… make I go sit down with my soccer
It is to be known that Tunde Onakoya started the chess marathon nearly two days ago in order to beat the previous longest chess holder and make new records at the World Guinness Book of Record.
This is a wonder attempt and several Nigerian celebrities showed up as an act of solidarity.
