AAC Presidential Candidate, Sowore Challenges Tinubu, Atiku, Peter Obi To Run With Him At Lagos City Marathon

January 24, 2023

Sowore, who said he is looking for 100 runners to join him in what he has tagged “#RunwithSowore” is seemingly asking the presidential candidates to join him and prove to Nigerians that they are physically fit for the work they are bargaining for.


The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the forthcoming general elections, Omoyele Sowore, has challenged the presidential candidates of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party to join him in the February 4, 2023, Lagos City Marathon.

Sowore, who said he is looking for 100 runners to join him in what he has tagged “#RunwithSowore” is seemingly asking the presidential candidates to join him and prove to Nigerians that they are physically fit for the work they are bargaining for.

Sowore, who is in his early 50s said, “I will be participating in the Lagos City Marathon #RunLagos2023 scheduled for Feb 4th 2023, I am looking for 100 runners to join me in what I have tagged #RunwithSowore,

“I am also urging other Pres. candidates particularly of the @OfficialAPCNg @OfficialPDPNig @NgLabour to join!”

This is as the APC presidential candidate, Tinubu and his PDP counterpart, Atiku have been widely reported to be struggling with health challenges.

Recently, a former Director of the Civil Society of the APC Presidential Campaign Council (APC-PCC), Najatu Muhammad, while explaining why she dumped Tinubu described the former Lagos governor as not only physically unfit to lead the nation, but also mentally unfit.

“Asiwaju that I sat with for two hours, he slept most of the time, it was Bisi Akande that I was really talking to. Most importantly he is not only physically unfit, he is mentally unfit, whether we want it or not, this is the truth. It’s not that I hate him, I respect him because I have heard of one or two people that he assisted which is good,” she said in an interview with THE WHISTLER.

“But when you talk of leadership of over two hundred million people you know that if you remove tribal sentiments, you know that he is incapable, those that will rule are those around him. This is the reality. He is mentally deranged – I said it!

“I sat with him for two hours in London, when you talk of green, he will give you an answer of red, he can’t even decipher, he has very serious dementia, I believe he has Alzheimer’s because he cannot even hold a cup of tea,” she added.

Pls government should provide enough security for the participants...these roaming tifnubu owomida miscreants are hell bent on constituting nuisance all over the places.

Bundle them up.

Vote OBI2023

Them still dey do am?
What's the cash price and are we going to run with males too?
I can't come from the north to Lagos to suffer against men o

Meanwhile Sowore is not well. Himself no fit. See his pot belly like small bucket hidden in his stomach.

Inside fuel scarcity and no cash? I just hope those foreigners coming go see naira spend

Lagos dis lagos dat......ipigs oya come and wail

Wahala..

Thanks for seeing this. My team won't bother going out this weekend.

Wahala for who dey go work on Saturday o.

I will be running the race on Saturday (42km). I've been rehearsing until this moment, malaria wants to stop me. I'll run regardless. As for Sowore. I doubt if he can finish that race. Probably he'll come to take pictures. Running for that long isn't easy in any way.

Always locking the city without providing alternative roads. There will be mad traffic. Sanwoolu and Access Bank will waste the weekend for people. Eko bridge has been locked for close to a year. Ikorodu road will take you through Sabo because Yaba M/M Ebute-Meta is closed

Time for Kenyans and Ethiopians to cash out as usual.

Brendaniel:
No Nigerian has won this marathon since it started, Lagos is just dashing money to Kenya and Ethiopia...

Nigerians can't win it, the nearest attempt will be from runners from Plateau, Adamawa and Taraba who have undergone years of rigorous trainings.

I go dey my house dey watch EPL
Arsenal vs Everton

on top the one we don de suffer already......

This should be postponed, alot of people are suffering from getting money for now....

Marathon with the mess Tinubu/Buhari APC put us? Una get mind oo

Even if you run and win I don't think you will be awarded the price except you are among the selected participants

All you need to do is to register. There are also various prizes.

First there is the 42km race. This is the race that the East Africans usually win. The winner of this race will get a prize and the first Nigerian to finish will also get a prize. This race starts at the National Stadium and ends at Eko Atlantic City.

Secondly, there is the 10km fun run. Families, children and anybody can take part. This race begins at Lekki Phase 1 and ends at Eko Atlantic and the winners also get prizes.

I am not an elite runner. The chances of me winning is almost zero. Elite runners finish the race in just over 2hrs. For me, if I have a good race, I'll finish in just under 5hrs. The marathon is an event where people push themselves to do the impossible just like climbing a mountain or skydiving. Winning isn't the motivation for most people. Except it's your profession. That's where you feed from.
