“Why MASA Isonyin Marathon (MIM)?”- Muideen Adegboyega Salami, Phd

MIM is a youth development programme designed to discover and develop local talents, especially in Ijebu North East Local Government and Ogun State generally, and expose them to the national and international sports’ arena.

I initiated MIM to promote positive outcomes, grow positive relationships among youth, and provide opportunities to build world-class talents.

MIM is a platform designed to offer upcoming long-distance runners the opportunities to run, learn, and grow by interacting with professional runners – inspiring them to identify their potential and achieve their dreams.

MIM is a means to enhance endurance, physical fitness, and good health and reduce idleness and anti-social behavior in youth.

Our youth needs adequate stamina to withstand the Alps and obstacles in their competitive world.

The program would inculcate a good attitude towards physical fitness, promote good health in our youth, and create an avenue to engage their youthful exuberant.

MIM will encourage and build the “spirit of good sportsmanship” among our youth – a phenomenon that is entirely lacking in our political class. Isonyin – the “land of honey” and venue of this event, is a source of inspiration to many people, including my humble self. This event, which will become an annual event, is a means of giving back to my community, promoting Isonyin, and providing enjoyment and entertainment, especially during the Easter period.
