Bros, going public on this attempt is pure wisdom ooo. I know some boys that trekked from MOROCCO enter SPAIN even in hiding and for nothing and still paid for showing them route.

Chaai if you tell them someone is paying $20,000.00 for trekking just from LAGOS to MAIDUGURI they will regret their lifeoooo. In-fact they will quickly come home and trek the 36 states of NIGERIA round for $10,000.00 after all they wasting in EUROPE after all that venture.

Great idea, though it made me laugh to tears when i read the first few comments but as a matter of fact, this is possible and if successfully accomplished with popular awareness,you will be put on the map, you will make a name for yourself and your family. Goodluck bro, but be very careful, make proper arrangements like having a medical team go with you, adequate clothing, proper physical and mental preparation, your feeding etc

A-ZeD:
@OP go for it if you can.
Before you start
1)Like the woman said, give it a name(A walk for/against xyz).
2) See a doctor for check up.
3) Train for at least a month and see a nutritionist so you can change your diet.
4)Start a blog, get enough publicity.
5)Plot your journey. Know the shortest route, the distance between neighboring towns and how long it takes you to walk 1km.
During the Journey
6) Walk at your own pace, you are not timed.
7)With enough publicity, you would get followers who would help you navigate their towns and probably give you accommodation for the night.(Try visiting the rulers of each town you pass.)
coolYou can quit at any time and its no shame. You can always try again.
9)You are allowed to spend days in any particular town of your choice.
10)Take pictures of the good, bad and ugly.

God be with you. Don't mind the negative posters. They all want change in Nigeria but are not ready to work for it.
NB: You already have supporters here who will accommodate you if you pass through their domain. Even the negative ones would house you just so the can discourage/laugh at you.
Accommodation 50% solved.

THE MAD MAN IS ONLY MAD because HE THINKS DIFFIRENTLY. THE MAN WHO SAID PLANES THAT ARE A THOUSAND TIMES BIGGER THAN A BIRD COULD FLY WAS SEEN AS BEING MAD EVEN I SOMETIME DO THINK HE MOST BE MAD TO THINK OF SOMETHING AS CRAZY AS THAT.


MY ADVICE:


DONT RUSH INTO IT TAKE TIME TO PRPARE UR MIND, BODY AND EVEN SOUL. YOU CAN START PREPARATION AND PLANING NOW AND BY NXT YEAR U EMBARK ON IT.


I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO JOIN YOU TO THE END BUT I DONT MIND TO DIE TRYING EITHER. IT MAY BE THE ONLY GREAT THING ONE WILL EVER HAVE OPPORTUNITY OF DOING. AFTERALL NO TIME LIMIT.

Demaejy:
Exactly! Physical fitness indeed..

physical fitness indeed, my brother pls go ahead with ur adventure, maybe ur trekkin will finally make the bokoharam boys to consider stoppin all this their wahala, cos they might conclude that the southern nigeria has been so frustrated by their act that they had to send a delagate to come interced for them, and the only thing that makes it more real is the fact that u will get there on foot....so the OP might be the messiah nigeria needs. And my friend (OP) before u start that move u need to ask any cow how it feels like to trek, whatevr the cow tells u, either by talkin or gesture, will make u reconsider.... And for a start, u do not need a trainer, but a HOOF....my 2kobo tho....

Re: Planning Of Trekking From Lagos To Maiduguri. Pls Advice Me by Godmann(m): 7:49am On Sep 26, 2012
If I get this opportunity, I will grab it with both hands.

You have enough financial motivation already; and what you are going into is enough fun.

The only risk is Boko Haram, But I don't see them coming to attack you.

One more thing. Take a message as you trek. Let the message be one that can unite the whole country.

I will prefer a strong political message. One against Tribalism or against corruption.

Forget the white lady's message unless if there is a strong financial motivation. let us concentrate on our immediate problems. Europe will never understand what our problems are; only we can.

Good luck and do not be discouraged. If you can't embark on it, hand it over to me with all the contacts and I will gladly take it up any day any time.

Dude, you need a Sam to your frodo. You need a wing man as all great feats need support. I'm your man. Here is what you get with me:

1) A writer who can do all the blogging

2) A sociable nerd with penchant for usable knowledge

3) My surname is Ajala. It's in the blood.


No mind all the peeps saying it's undoable. Let us prove the wrong. Yes We Can.
