WHY WE ARE ORGANISING ARISE, WALK FOR LIFE 2022 – SIJU ILUYOMADE
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The convener of Arise Walk for Life, Dr. Siju Iloyomade, has said that the primary goal of organizing the annual event was for the health benefits of all participants. She stated this during a briefing in Lagos, that this year’s Arise Charity Walk would be happening in clusters just like last year across different countries of the world, including Nigeria (Lagos), Canada, USA, United Kingdom, Singapore, etcetera.

This event, taking place October 15, with the theme #AppointedToLive, will begin simultaneously by 7am local time in all participating countries. Participants are to register their clusters on the Arise Walk website.

Dr Siju has, she’s fondly called, emphasised the critical need to keep fit and encourage preventive illness instead of a curative approach especially as some countries continue to battle the COVID-19 . She noted that walking helps improve immunity and physical health, adding that participants in this year’s walk stand a chance of winning up to $2,000 for the best cluster.
According to her: “Nigeria is blessed, more than many countries of the world but most countries live longer than us. We must also encourage walking, it elongates lifespan and gives good health, that is what Arise want to encourage with this initiative, hence we need to continuously exercise to keep body and spirit in tune. At ARISE, we take health very seriously because you need to be in sound health to do anything tangible. The Arise Walk for Life is a place for everyone irrespective of status, tribe, religion or nationality, it is a place for all.”
