After planning to introduce Chinese Language in public schools, the Lagos State Government is also planning to engage the students in another activity. And I think the kids will love this.
The Special Adviser to the Gov. on Public Health, Dr Yewande Adeshina yesterday said that, they have plans to compete in the Lagos World Record Tooth Brushing Challenge in December.
Over 300, 000 persons will simultaneously brush their teeth with the aim of creating a new Guinness Book of Records in tooth brushing. Please click to continue...
To achieve the feat, no fewer than 300,000 pupils from 300 public schools will brush their teeth at different locations simultaneously at a competition which is to hold on December 5, 2012.
The theme of the challenge is “Don’t wait: address your future now,” and is aimed at enlightening people on the importance of proper oral hygiene.
“At exactly 12 noon on December 5, we hope to lead over 300,000 adolescents in brushing their teeth at multiple locations for a single, glorious minute,” Mr. Bakare Lawal, a dentist said.
The 300,000 students are set to beat the current record of 177,003 set by India in 2007.
