Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo Olu has joined the league of admirers and fans who have showered encomium on Estonian Professional Slackliner and Balance Trainer, Jan Roose, for ‘Perfect Lagos Selfie’ where the European walked “in the sky from Sterling Towers to the Onome Rig”.
The Governor noted that Lagos, unarguably remains the “epitome of beauty”, of the Nation, commending Roose on Saturday in a series of tweets via his profile on X (Former Twitter).
Roose, who is working on a project between the Lagos State Government and Energy Drinks Brand, Red Bull, saw his picture bombarding the internet and all social media platforms for this feat.
Governor Sanwo Olu had tweeted, “Lagos is the epitome of creativity at its finest and we are saying well done and congratulations to @JaanRoose, the Guinness World Record holder, who has captured the Perfect Lagos Selfie while walking in the sky from Sterling Towers to the Onome Rig.
“His expertise in slack-lining, blending balance training, recreation, and moving meditation is beautifully showcasing our city’s vibrant spirit.”
The governor also noted that the selfie by the Guinness World Record-holding Estonian slackliner captured the “beauty of our skyline against the backdrop of the Blue Line Rail is an admirable feat.”
“Partnering with the Lagos Safety Commission, this project highlights the splendour of Lagos State.
“This is one of many recent successful projects with the @redbull team which include partnering with the Lagos State Government through LASPARK, renovating Ndubuisi Kanu Park’s basketball court and recently creating the Lagos Encourage Park in Ikoyi,” the Governor tweeted.
