Founder of Chess in Slums Africa, Tunde Onakoya, has become a sensation once more, this time for playing 10 simultaneous chess matches, and winning every single one of them.
Says Tunde: “On day two of the Digital Life Design (DLD) conference, I played a simultaneous chess match against 10 players at once. After an almost two-hour battle of wits, I managed to win all the games. The Chess exhibition helped us raise enough money to support the education of 100 children in our academy.”
Chess in Slums Africa very recently signed a three-year deal with Lufthansa Airlines Global, to build a Chess Academy and an Innovation Laboratory in Lagos. The learning Hub will be open and free to underprivileged children without access to Education.
