Lagos Deputy Gov Set For World Record 3
•Orelope-Adefulire, Lagos Deputy Gov.
 
Tomorrow
is the World Literacy Day worldwide, a day the UNESCO celebrates to draw
attention to the status of literacy and adult learning globally.

•Orelope-Adefulire, Lagos Deputy Gov.
In
Lagos State, the day will be marked with a target to break the Guinness World
Records. The attempt to break the record will happen at an event in which the
Deputy Governor, Adejoke Orelope-Adefulire, will lead over 4,000 school children
to read a book jointly.
The
event will hold at 10 Degree Events on Billingsway Road, Oregun, Ikeja, from 9
a.m.

Organised
by Ecole de Dessin in conjunction with the Lagos State Government, the Big Read
will attract a galaxy of celebrities and many school children.
The
record for “Most Children Reading With An Adult In A Single Location

was first set by 3,032 children of the Kindergarten Status School at Global
Village in Dubai on 12 November, 2008.
On
Thursday, 4 March, 2010, the Islamic Forum Charity in the UK also assembled
3,234 children to take part in a Big Reading Session. The event took place at
East London Muslim Centre.
Lagos
hopes to raise the bar tomorrow.
A
sobering reality facing UNESCO on each World Literacy Day is that achieving 100
per cent literacy worldwide remains an elusive target as over a billion people
lack minimum literacy skills worldwide….
