The 2018 7up Lagos City 10 kilometre marathon race which was held yesterday at Lagos, commenced from Ikoyi through the Lekki link bridge. The #7up bottling company sponsored the project, nicknamed it #10kGang. Many Lagosians turned up.
7UP excited runners attended a pre-run event to feel the pump before the main event. The presence of Tiwa Savage gave the atmosphere a soothing refreshing event. Some celebrities were at the event: Nedu(wazobia FM), Beverly OSU, Kaffy, Gbenga Adegbenro, Nwaigwe Enyinaya, Bryan Okpara.......... "Pretty good we are learning the need to keep fit"

Some other runners made a 42km distance and were handsomely rewarded as much as the 10kGang.7up21-300x200.jpg7up18-300x200.jpg7up14-300x200.jpg7up11-300x200.jpg7up7-300x200.jpg7up-300x200.jpg
One very disturbing thing is that several other States in the nation are very inactive when it comes to activities as this. #Except for the #TinapaEvents or the #ObudyCattleRanchEngagements.
Well, fun is part of government responsibilities to the people. In Francophone nations of the world, there are more of such activity. In the Gambia,of recent, weekends begins on Thuràdays because life expectancy is in the lower ebb.
I want to advocate that #Nigerians begins from now to : #RUNFORYOURLIFE
