Nigerian Man Rides A Motorcycle From London To Lagos

Kunle Adeyanju the president-elect, Rotary Club of Ikoyi Metro, Nigeria, has successfully completed a motorcycle ride from London to Lagos.

Adeyanju ventured on the trip partly to raise money for polio.

The journey took 41 days as he traveled 13,000 kilometers (8,080 miles) through 11 countries and 31 cities

Adeyanju, says, he chose to go on the bike ride because of a childhood friend who suffered from the debilitating illness. This he did in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Ikoyi Metro, Nigeria.

Adeyanju's bravery has seen him climb the Mount Kilimanjaro twice and cycled from Lagos to Accra over three days.

Adeyanju recollects:

"Polio is a personal thing for me... as a boy, my best friend had polio and when we go swimming or play football, he could do none of those things.. Sadly, my friend passed away some years back. If he hadn't had polio, he probably will still be alive today."

The World Health Organization declared Nigeria free of wild polio virus in 2020, but there are still some vaccine-derived cases in the country.

However, he gave the following instruction; "When the woman asks who sent the food, tell her that it's from the devil." When the secretary arrived at the woman's house, the woman was happy and grateful for the help received. She started putting the food packets inside her small house. The secretary then asked her, "Don't you want to know who sent the food?" The woman replied, "No, I don't care... because when GOD orders, even the DEVIL obeys!
