Lagos branches light up i-Fitness GameFest 2.0

The i-Fitness GameFest 2.0, themed "Different Squad, Unstoppable Together," unfolded at the Legacy Pitch, National Stadium, Surulere, Lagos on Saturday, November 7, 2026. The event showcased branches from across the Lagos Mainland competing in a variety of fitness activities, including track racing, tug of war, and sack racing. Organized by i-Fitness, the event reflected the "phenomenal growth and community spirit" of the fitness chain, according to its Founder and CEO, Foluso Ogunwale.

Ogunwale emphasized the health benefits of regular exercise, noting that regular physical activity can reduce all-cause mortality by 20 to 40 percent in adults and contribute to longevity and disease prevention. Corporate partners, like Wema Bank and Brila FM, played a crucial role in driving the fitness revolution across Nigeria through such collaborations.

Athletes like Yaba, who won the male and female 100m titles, and Ago Palace, the female football champions, competed fiercely in the various categories. Personal stories from participants, such as Alma Oputa and Delight Bekee, highlighted how fitness transformed their physical capabilities and overall well-being.
