Popular entertainer, Ghana Must Go has encountered four siblings trekking from Obudu border in Cross River to Cameroon, their home country at the end of the academic term in Nigeria where they school.

He was in the area for his entertainment adventure when he sighted the kids whose actual ages are not known but the eldest who is in SS 1 could be about 15 years.

They school in an area called Kotanga in Cross River state from where they go back at the end of every term to their home Kalumo in Cameroon by foot.

When asked why they were trekking, they told Ghana Must Go that they don't have money to hire a bike, popularly called okada back to their home.

The kids said they would trek all night without a telephone or any other means of communication. They said they would use torchlight to illuminate the road path as they proceed on the journey they would have them arrive him in the evening of next day.

When a motorcycle operator, popularly called okada was asked the cost of conveying the four siblings, he said each is N5,000.

On why they left their part of Cameroon to school in Nigeria, the kids said the schools there have all been destroyed as a result of the crisis.

They usually trek back to Nigeria upon resumption of school as well.

Ghana Must Go however offset the cost of okada for the four kids, which stood at N20,000. This enabled them to board two bikes to their home.

He also gave them additional N10,000 which they can change to a local currency upon arrival in Cameroon.

He further promised to make accommodation available for them around their school while also praying for the crisis in their country to be over.

He commended their resilience and courage in making the sacrifice to acquire education.

Okay. Good of him. Funny how those with the least of opportunities make the best of what they can.

Bleep it!

I'm so touched by the video. We've not seen it all after all.


It's unimaginable what people go through daily. I appreciate the guys in the video, they did well.

Omo, this life no balance

Poverty is some part of Africa aided by different factors is alarming

You will be surprised to find out that there are thousands of children in Nigeria who are going through hell to get education...




Your kind gesture will be repayed in due time 'Mr GhanaMustGo'....

Wow

All for the pursuit of education. I hope their sacrifices pay off tomorrow.

No wonder Cameroon separatists and IPOB have many things in common .

Destroying schools like boko haram.

Someone should look for the girl among the kids for me.
I want to teach her how to make money without having to trek and suffer.

I love tinubu, tinubu is my dream sugar daddy.
Please tinubu, love me back I want to show you something please

I love you tinubu

The impact of tinubu reaches down to Cameroon.

While some ppl are killing themselves at the embassy to get Visa, this one's just dey cross abroad freely

Nawa o, this life nor really balance.

.

The kids are really strong and determined..

If foolish idiotic civilians cannot govern Africa properly, let the military take over in all African countries. We need recolonization.

This is touching and inspiring.....

Value what you have and place your mind to always doing and getting the best

It is well.

Sadly,
After all these troubles just to go to school,
They might most probably dump their certificates to go and engage in a different kind of hustle.

Stop typing nonsense.

We all face life differently. May we all overcome our challenges, I’m currently facing mine this period and it seems things are not going to get better but we keep hoping and struggling.
Pls Nairalanders, I need Job, formal or informal. I studied Health Information Management in the University and I lives in ilorin, Kwara state.

U don't pity ur parents if they kidnap u

And here parents were debating sending out their 7 yr old to go on errand in the same street they live in.

One even advised me to stop allowing mine go to school by himself .School that is in my street.

When life is good for you,you start creating fears for yourself.

Chai God please help Africa out...we fight unnecessary wars using funds for better things to kill fellow humans and to destroy infrastructures which was built with money ...wars is still the highest degradation of human race ...because of crisis in their own community they had to trek every term back to their own country....God bless this kids with bright future and prosperity

All the haters of Nigeria

Hope this news change your mind that there's still something good about your country and your unpatriotic acts will one day haunt you if you don't have a change of heart
