Those people protesting against emolakun are useless, no be Kenya man win Lagos marathon so. Instead of fooling yourselves protesting against someone that made you live in "luxury", why not use that energy and run marathon and win prize, stupiid fools.

It's not surprising that many of your likes here have understanding deficiency. Get married to your books and stay education. It's a big shame u can read but can never understand.

I was right. You should probably spend time practicing your writing and comprehension first before coming online to make disjointed sentences

Why are they allowing foreigners to participate

Saw a documentary on why they are tops. Athletes from abroad go to camps in Kenya ... live with them for longgg periods ... same diet etc ... nothing changes. The explanation for their success is that from a young age... they be running great distances to get to school etc .... so by the time they're into their late teens .... the body has already adapted to distance running.... at 18 ..... coming into camp with 15 years of long distance running experience. Here comes the outsider into camp ... age 18 ... with 3 years long distance running experience and 12 years of walking and and sitting and donut eating... he is wayyyy behind.

This is absolutely crazy. I heard something from Pastor Sam Adeyemi and he explained why first world countries develop faster than third world countries. One of the reasons he stated was extreme weather and climatic conditions. It enabled them to think deeper and innovate faster. I see the same thing at play here... Kenyans have adapted well and their adaptation has given them natural superiority. That's why many Nigerians succeed abroad, because here at home, we hustle for everything.

You didn’t mention the most important one.

The component of their Topography. Altitude.

You are the only sensible person on this thread. Lot's of dullards here, they don't realize the relationship between altitude where you grew up, oxygen demand and how it eventually shapes your endurance.

Wetin Dem for just carry the trophy give the bonga fish before it started already and save everybody time.

PepeXKermit:
They will come here unharassed, uninterrupted, welcomed but when we go there they will be angry and want to indermine us. This is another winner momey going to the pockets of another country untaxed.

People in the comment section wont say anything if it was an igbo man who won, all hell will let lose. Useless people

Kenysns are generally good people. In fact, most African countries are accomodating. You just need to avoid crime in people's lands.

This is the sports fulani people supposed to be known with since they can trek from kano to enugu,only kidnapping is their sport

Don't take what the pastor said seriously.... it must be he was joking! If what he said is true then the Eskimos should be the most innovative... the most progressive and Greenland the most developed place on earth. But I do agree with the Nigerian succeeding abroad because of his hustle history....man average person from a developed country cannot out hustle an average Nigerian .... but the reverse is true!

He was trying to say that hard conditions force you to innovate. It's either you innovate and adapt or you die.

For the Nigerian hustle part, I think it's inherently in our genes. We are hustlers. We have crazy perseverance and grit.

Lagos should stop waisting our money dashing it to Kenya and Ethiopia,they should instead organize it between Nigeria

Pastor Adyemi is wrong.

Rest in peace Herbert Wigwe.
