Ismael Sadjo won the 2021 Warri/Effurun Peace Marathon in Warri, Delta State, at the weekend in a time of 29 minutes and 45 seconds.

Sadjo’s time could be a new 10km national record pending corrections. In the men’s race, he proved to be too strong for his opponents, and there was little doubt in his mind that he would win the N1m to prize.
