A Nigerian woman, Habibat Salawudeen Ihiovi-Jack, has completed a six-day Bible reading marathon in a bid to set a new Guinness World Record.
The challenge, titled "144 Hours in the Word," began on June 22 at the Novotel Hotel in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, where Habibat spent 144 hours reading the Bible aloud before supporters, family members and church members.

The exercise was organised not only as a record attempt but also as a campaign encouraging Christians to read the Bible more consistently and deepen their understanding of scripture.
Throughout the challenge, Habibat read from a lectern while digital countdown clocks tracked her progress.
Under Guinness World Records rules, participants are allowed only short breaks at set intervals, with the rest of the time spent continuously completing the task.
