A new partnership brings international road racing to Bayelsa State for the first time, with Nilayo as organising and management partner.

The Bayelsa State Government and Nilayo Sports Management Limited have announced a new partnership to deliver the inaugural Yenagoa City International 10KM Race, bringing international-standard road racing to Bayelsa State for the first time.

The race is expected to draw elite and mass-participation runners from across Nigeria and the wider Niger Delta region, showcasing Yenagoa's growing profile as a destination for sport, tourism, and investment.

Nilayo Sports Management will serve as the organising and marketing partner for the event, overseeing athlete recruitment, sponsorship, logistics, and community engagement — building on its track record with the Lagos City Marathon, Abeokuta 10KM Race, and other properties across the country.
