According to him, “Of course, I am happy to sign on for the race, trust me I will run on that day, I know I can go the whole 42km”.

He commented that if he was not a musician, he would have ventured into sports.

“If not music, I am sure I will have been a sports person, I really like this idea of a marathon, even if you say I don’t have fats to burn; running can help me ease out stress so I am going to be part of the participants on February 6”.

Deji Tinubu, the Chairman of Lagos State Sports Commission and head of the organising committee for the Access Bank Lagos City Marathon praised Paroranking for his involvement in the upcoming event.
