Nigerian Man Breaks Record, Rides To South Africa From Lagos On Motorbike by mikron(op): 1:39am On Nov 08, 2014
A Nigerian and chemical Engineer, Ogbonnaya Kanu, also known as Foto Dadi, has broken a record as the first man to ride a motorcycle from Lagos to South Africa, Kanu who is the first and returning Vice President of the Association of Nigerian Motorcycle Clubs, has ridden motorcycles to 26 countries of the world. In 23 of the trips, he traveled with his own Nigerian-registered motorcycle.

In 2012, he rode solo from Lagos-Nigeria to Austria, riding through France, Germany, Austria, and Italy; and in mid-October, he embarked on another solo trip from South Africa to Lagos.
Kanu is the co-founder, and member of the Board of Trustees of the Easy Riders Motorcycle Club of Nigeria – the first registered motorcycle club in Nigeria.

He is also the co-founder of Ride Easy Motorcycle Training School; co-founder and member Board of Trustees, Ride Easy Motorcycling Club of Lagos, and Superbike Clubs Association of Nigeria (SCAN).

Well is there anything special about it? It would have made more sense if he did it for a cause like riding across Africa so gej can end this boko haram insurgency or riding across africa for gej to end corruption...etc, something like that.

Mr. Kanu was a very active nairalander a few years back https://www.nairaland.com/fotodaddy

A very bright detribalized guy who loves adventures. Here is a thread where him and fellow nairalanders and other friends, including me lipsrsealed , went off roading - that was so much fun. Driving through rugged Backstreets of Nigeria

Congrats buddy!

There goes a good Nigerian making us proud. This is a big lesson to youths. If you don't have anything to do, just ride a bike to Egypt or South Africa.
