5000 Nigerians took part in ‘Santa Dash’ to raise money for charity.
The event, first of its kind in Nigeria saw over 5,000 participants run or walk in Santa clothes for 5 kilometres in what was later dubbed a morning carnival of fun and fitness.
The donations were given to a local charity caring for vulnerable children.
The charity run took place simultaneously in eight different cities in Nigeria.
