I remember the day I trek from eleyele to moniya In Ibadan to submit my CV, on getting there I was told submission of CV Is closed.
I felt like heaven should come down,But I don't have a choice I have to trek back home.
I got home Around 6pm I slept immediately without eaten any food.
I woke up the following day around 12pm. People that know this area can relate. But we are still moving.

Those who know Calabar know the distance I am talking about here.

I trekked all the way from Scanabo in 8 miles to UNICAL to submit my credentials to someone.

Life of an applicant is a painful life.

I don't know how many kilometers that would be but it's quite a long distance. Almost like trekking from one LGA to the other.

The distance I have covered trekking in search of work the last two weeks, if I sum together may cross one state into another.

It's not because I like trekking but because I may not have the transport fare and the cost of transportation now is very high.

It's a big burden on struggling Nigerians.

Sometimes you get caught by rain and your clothes get soaked. Hmmmm.

I'm right inside UNICAL now but warming up to make my return.

God help me through as I return.
Dude you trekked from Scanobo to Unical?

I feel like you're exaggerating but if you're not then that's crazy. That's beyond madness mehn. Any normal human that does that should pass out.

Scanobo - 8miles - Tinapa - Army Junction - Stadium or the other long routes through Ikot Ansa and Ikot Ishie etc. Jesus!!!

Trekking as using leg rover grin
To me FUTA to Oja Oba in Akure is not far down to First Bank.
I always cut my trekking distances.
Walked many times to Oba-ile estate
Sometimes, I don reach there before I knew it.

Agege to MMA, I can’t believe how many times

I trekked not because of Work but because I was left behind on a trip to Idanre and my wallet was with my babe at that time. I had to trek from Idanre to Akure (about 24km). On my way from the Idanre, I met someone I knew who gave me money but because I had already covered 2/3rd of the journey and no vehicle would stop for me in the middle of nowhere, I had to complete the journey on foot.

Nigeria was till fine then, you couldn’t approach a fellow young man to tip you with bus fare? You actually just punished yourself.

There is no how you won’t get someone to pay for your transport before you spend 1hr at the bus park, better than trekking from 1pm to 3AM

I have treck for 6 months almost everyday in search of Job in Kaduna. Many said I will get experience but no pay, I get tired I stick to one for a month while still searching for jobs, God later answered my prayer. Thank God, though things are costly but the salary is sustaining me at least.
