A Nigerian dancer in Lagos, Benjamin Daniel known as “Ben Dancer,” is attempting to dance nonstop for seven days to set a new world record. Organizers say he plans to continue until Wednesday morning, aiming for a total of 168 hours.

According to reports, the attempt is framed as exceeding the current Guinness World Records mark for the longest individual dance marathon by 41 hours. One source notes that Guinness World Records has not yet confirmed whether the effort will be officially recognized. Crowds gather to watch the sustained performance as the challenge continues into the final days of the planned period.
