President Bola Tinubu has congratulated 15-year-old Nigerian artist Kanyeyachukwu Tagbo-Okeke for setting a new Guinness World Record with the world’s largest art canvas, titled Impossibility Is a Myth
The massive artwork, measuring 12,303.87 square meters, was unveiled at Eagle Square, Abuja, in celebration of the 2025 World Autism Awareness Day.
In a post on his official X handle, Tinubu praised the young autistic artist’s creativity and resilience. “You said, ‘Impossibility is a myth,’ and you set out to prove that impossibility was nothing,” the president wrote. “Your story has made history, and Nigeria is proud of you.”
Kanyeyachukwu, who has received international recognition for his work, continues to advocate for children with autism through his art. His father, Tagbo Okeke, revealed that his son’s passion for color and structured routines helped unlock his creative potential from an early age.
Minister of Art, Culture, Tourism, and Creative Economy, Hannatu Musawa, also commended the teen’s achievement, describing it as a powerful reminder that age and challenges are no barriers to greatness.
