The state is also home of the first road race in West Africa to be granted a World Athletics label, the Okpekpe international 10km road race and ‘both the Governor Obaseki and Comrade Shaibu have been a strong part of it from its conception and have been a solid pillar of support to the historic and enviable height it has attained.’
