MY TRAVELOGUE 2

I want to start this travelogue by expressing my gratitude to all of you who have been following my journey and leaving encouraging comments. I really appreciate your support and interest in my adventures. Thank you so much ❤️🙏. As I was reading your comments, I felt a surge of inspiration and motivation to pick up my writing tools and document another day of my trip.

MY TRAVELOGUE 1

Some years ago, my mother, Iya Olamilekan, went on a perilous journey from Ilorin to Niger state to trade. She did not tell me the exact place she was going to, but I heard stories that it was far and dangerous. I pitied her that year because she went to hustle for my JAMB fee, WAEC and NECO fee. I was so angry with her that day, but I also felt that it was one of her parental duties. You might wonder about my father. Well, he was just recovering from a horrific accident that almost made him lose his leg. He could not work or support us financially then. He was bedridden and dependent on my mother's care. I remembered a particular journey my Mom told me about, the journey she took 20 years ago, when my grandfather was Director of NYSC at Abakaliki. According to the story I was told by my mother, it was a hellish and adventurous trip. On 29th October, 2023, I took a similar Journey in the name of students' struggle, we started the journey around quarter past nine in...
