There was no presence of official of Anambra Government, especially from the State Sports Development Commission at the start point of the event and at the finishing line to receive and cheer the athletes. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that while the international marathon was going on in Onitsha, the Anambra Sports Commission officials were holding its monthly Walk for Life from Nteje Oyi council area to Aguleri in Anambra East Council.

When you have to chase animals for food and run away from lions for survival, your body has no choice but to adapt. I was lucky enough to travel to Europe for a conference, me and my friends went to a zoo and there were lions in cages; one of the oyinbo people asked if I'm very good with handling lions since I'm African, I laughed and told him we don't have lions in Nigeria, as a matter of fact I had to travel all the way to Germany to see lion for the first time.
