About Us
The BJS marathon is a concept that aims to insist that the art, sport, and culture technical, local economic efficiency and processes are not ending to those who are established but create opportunities for those not yet established for the goal they seek to achieve. In this instance, the goal is to develop, nurture, promote tourism and prosperity of the South as a geo-economic space, and of its people, defined by not race or group, but by psychic identity.
While recognising and honouring our legend through an initiative that will bring sustainability, economic boost, and effective utilisation of sport, art, and culture. This initiative is about nation-building which is informed by strategic thinking and planning to advance and develop a platform that will be meaningful to our community.
In the complex and cutthroat competitive world we live in, the success of a nation is not automatic but is based on the implementation of the strategies. This is demonstrated in the turbulent global economic arrangement we are confronted with as we prepare to stage this event. BJS Marathon is about rebirth, renowned, transformation, and restructured of sport, art and culture, and entertainment industry on African soil.

Our Compassion
Compassion is an important value in African people’s lives and is especially prevalent in rural communities. This initiative is created to be an umbrella of quality in a manner that will go a long way in binding people together as Africans. It will cement relationships and friendships with the people of Africa. It is manifested through people’s desire to reach out of themselves and in turn they find self-fulfilment and self-accomplishment through their talent, skill, and gift for economical sustainability
