A 96-year-old retired Nigerian civil servant, Elder Foster Ebinimie Akulasa, who is from Odi Town in Bayelsa State, has boldly thrown down a fitness challenge to the younger generation, publicly calling for a competition between him and them.

Though aged and might be considered weak, Elder Foster Ebinimie Akulasa, according to reports, still remains fit and agile and even actively takes part in locally organized exercise by the state government every week.

Elder Akulasa, who looks fit and thinks he has more to offer, has now challenged young and exuberant men between the ages of 25 to 45 years, to a fitness competition at the Samson Siasia Sports Complex in Yenagoa.

It is alleged that Elder Akulasa runs and road-walk for three kilometres without taking a break to catch his breath or breaking a sweat despite his age, a remarkable display of vitality and enthusiasm which has triggered him to call for the fitness competition.

Well, we are keenly following proceedings to know how things will pan out in the few coning days and keep you up-to-speed about his challenge.
