Look at some idiots saying it should be for citizens alone. Its an international marathon event, that means you need to invite foreign participants.

Some of you are saying why invite the Kenyans, but the truth is, to be the best, you need to compete with the best. Nigerian athletes and coaches should learn from the Kenyans, that is the only way we can grow.

It shoukd be strictly for Citizens.

Kenyan winning "Lagos" City Marathon... Impressive... They won last year too!!

PatriotExact:



I'm sure your parents know that they are idiots?

Dton339:
I fear Kenya and Jamaica when it comes to japa

CHoccolaTE:
Access bank organisers of this marathon are just so annoying, the grand prize should ALWAYS go to a Nigerian then they can have special categories for non citizens. Now one foreigner will just carry 12 million out of Nigeria's struggling economy.

Such nonsense

Imagine blocking roads in lagos for hours and inconveniencing Nigerians only to hand over millions to another country

kingthreat:
What this guys do is travel around the world and run marathon races in cities and getting paid.
Good athletic hustle. Way better than drug trafficking, baby factory plus the recent one of killing policemen and stealing their weapons.

The rate at which children and idiots nw dominate nairaland call for concern......reading some deluded things some of them r writing is just degrading for some of us to be here

U can imagine someone saying its waste of money, another said why invite Kenya....when south Africa hosted d world cup was it for them to win

luvme0702:
Why most athletes from Kenya dey resemble laboratory skeletons?

LayconsCousin:
Historically, no Nigerian has won the Lagos Marathon

Like CNN once noted, the secret of Kenyans winning marathons lies in the Rift valleys.

Notably is Iten, one of the towns that produces elite runners. Iten sits nearly 8,000 feet above sea level in western Kenya.

Those living in the region get to train with the high altitude from a tender age, coupled with motivations and good diets, they keep dominating the global athletic hemisphere.

Come to Nigeria, our own plateau is a center of Fulani herdsmen killing and religious conflicts
