this kind threads no dey happen again

I tell you!

This trip was back then. Now, that road is not only bad, it's a death trap riddled with bandits, robbers and kidnappers.

The Makera - Tegina will leave you with a leaking transmission, busted shocks and other eventualities. worse more, road can be so lonely and deserted now so no help if you get stranded.

Worked and lived in Kaduna back in 2016 and I frequented Kamuku resort in Birnin Gwari for their fresh local chicken stew, hut accomodations and awesome weather. Good old days.

On this sort of journey now, I'd leave Lagos either by 9pm to arrive 5am, 5am to arrive 3pm or simply take a flight.

Life is precious

Good old days,when everywhere was still sane.
Now...
