First Time in Nigeria

 I landed in Nigeria, a couple of hundred of years since my ancestors were here.

I feel right at home to be honest. I have met people who have wondered where we met before. 

The ordinary Nigeria looks and expresses themselves just like any East African. Kudos for them for taking care of over 200m people, its not easy.

Many developments while here:

1. A Nigerian dethroned Brock Lesner.

2. 8

Marathon Record Broken

 Sabastian Sawe made history at the London Marathon by becoming the first athlete to run a sub-two-hour marathon in a competitive race.

The 30-year-old Kenyan crossed the line to win in one hour 59 minutes 30 seconds, more than one minute faster than the late Kelvin Kiptum's previous record of 2:00:35, set in 2023.
