WalkHeartOn 10.0: 25,536 Nigerians Register for Power Oil’s 10th Heart-Health Walk

Power Oil’s WalkHeartOn has celebrated its 10th anniversary with a major turnout in Lagos, as thousands of Nigerians came together to promote heart health and active living. The 10th edition of the annual event was held on October 1, 2026, at The Stables Sports Ground in Surulere in celebration of World Heart Day. A total of 25,536 people registered for WalkHeartOn 10.0, while 11,896 people physically attended the event.

Participants enjoyed a mix of fitness, wellness and entertainment activities throughout the event. These included fitness sessions, health checks, games, refreshments, music and entertainment. WalkHeartOn has grown over the past 10 years from a heart-health walk into a broader community experience designed to encourage Nigerians to move more and pay attention to their overall wellbeing.

For Power Oil, WalkHeartOn is part of its wider commitment to promoting heart health and encouraging healthier choices among Nigerians. The 10th edition provided an opportunity to celebrate the journey so far while reinforcing the importance of physical activity and healthy living. The significant turnout also reflects the continued interest in community-based wellness initiatives that combine health education with entertainment and social connection.

Commenting on the 10th edition, Roland Akpe, Marketing Manager, Oils and Fats Portfolio at Tolaram, said, “Ten years of WalkHeartOn is ten years of Nigerians choosing to show up for their hearts. At Power Oil, we believe heart health is a lifestyle, shaped by what we eat, how active we are and the choices we make every day. World Heart Day gives us an important opportunity to reinforce that message, and WalkHeartOn allows us to bring it to life by getting Nigerians moving, connecting and taking those healthy steps together.”

With one decade now complete, WalkHeartOn has established a strong legacy of bringing Nigerians together around heart health. The journey may have started with a walk, but after 10 years, it has become a movement that continues to encourage Nigerians to take steps towards healthier lives.
