what's your car engine type v6 or i4?


Is there any repair you did after the journey because I heard honda baby boy usually develop gear issue after long distance journey.....

i4


None, only did Tyre alignment cause of the bad roads and then I changed the engine cooling fan that got spoilt on the road

Most women can't tell where the temperature guage is especially those that drive within the town. Many don't even know where the engine filter of their car is located not to talk of cabin airfilter. For a woman to be a very good driver, a man with her level of same must have being better of. Women has excelled in Adminstration, Medical and Applied Sciences, ICT than even males but in Automobile diagnosis they are still below the male counterparts. Abi how many women can quickly diagnose electrical applicances problems at home without waiting for their husbands?

they just do not give attention to it. I'm sure some others do

Some women drive well even on long trips. I know of a woman who trust only herself to drive between Lagos and abuja. I've been chased once by a woman on kaduna to abuja highway at 140kmph.

That said, some women can't tell where the temperature guage is. Some men too

Day 3: Journey back


left Wukari town at 10am, please remember it was the full tank of fuel from Bauchi i was still using. reserve light lit up in wukari, drove into an NNPC fuel station, they sold fuel at 158 per litre, bought 3k fuel and drove off through federal university wukari, along the wukari - zaki biam highway, continued to katsina Ala. this highway was so good. was doing an average of 140kmph. i stopped over at a fuel station at katsina Ala and bought fuel for 3k at 155 per litre with the hope of filling up at Makurdi.

hit the road, not long after i was on the bridge linking to gboko. right ontop, just after overtaking a trailer, I ran into a pothole right onto of the bridge linking towards gboko, i never expected there will be potholes that deep ontop of a bridge. no issues, continued journey through the bad roads to Gboko at an average speed of 70kmph. bought oranges at Gboko and continued. made a 30 minutes stop at wannune for small business then continued to makurdi.

drove the car onto the wooded ferry, each ferry takes 2 cars or buses. it was a thrilling 35minutes water drive. reversed out of the ferry as we got to the other side. was charged 2k for the ride, which was paid as i was embarking.

the drive from Ibi to wukari was rough as the road into wukari town was still bad. road improved as we edged closer into town. arrived Wukari at about 5pm or there about. drove another 40km along the wukari - Jalingo highway to the exact village which was the target.

ended the days trip there.

ps: the old workhorse peugeot 504 wagon was majorly used along the bad Amper - Ibi road

Almaiga:
Op, how much did you spend on fuel from Abuja to your destination?

i shall provide that too

Day 2

Left Tafawa balewa at some minutes to 10, headed straight through Bogoro, boi till i entered into plateau State(good road). stopped at Kanke for some snacks. dog meat was their suya there. you need to see dog meat on full display. i respected myself and bought snacks and water. I then turned left at the junction and headed towards langtang. the road was fair not much potholes.

as we progressed, the road got lonelier till i stopped at Yelwa. was a busy town too with lots of commodity business. continued the journey with bad road through yamini. immediately after Yamini, on a very bad and dusty road i noticed my car temperature at half mark(way above optimum temperature), i pulled over and notice that the main fan bearing was bad. the fan wasn't running at optimal speed, was spinning with lots of noise. i had to sacrifice my AC to further the journey. i spent about 5mins or less waiting the engine to cool down back. the road got more bad and dry as we progressed. road cut, diversion into bush paths, i even crossed a wooden bridge and paid toll fee of 200naira to toll collectors who claimed they built and maintain the wooden bridge. we fired on till we got to the end of the tarred road .

the guys at the wooden toll bridge had told us that the water level at the river was low and as such we will have to turn right and drive on the bank of the river till we got to the ferry loading point.

Ehn?! Ferry keh?? Instead I go climb fish back abeg, I cannor coman die

na the ferry I use o. Was interesting

left Polo-Jos at 4pm or so. Stopped over to fuel up since I wasn't sure of what was ahead. Got fuel for 155 per litre just outside Jos. Bought fuel worth 3k and headed to Bauchi, the road between Toro and Bauchi was good mehn. The kinds of speed those Vectra Opel and Sharan drivers use on that road ehn . i remember doing 160kmph on the road still a Volks Sharan over took me .

arrived bauchi at 5:45pm, saw an NNPC station just outside the town I then decided to fill up my tank. It cost 4k to get it filled at 145 per litre. Headed into bauchi town then stopped over to see friends, one just outside ATBU, then another inside the town. left Bauchi at some minutes to 8pm for Tafawa Balewa. very good new road. over 100km of the new road. i remember i asked my friend i saw at bauchi, if there was pothole on the bauchi - tafawa balewa road and she said none, that if i saw any, i should come back to bauchi and she will apologise . arrived my destination at about 9pm. since it was night i could only do btw 100 and 120kmph on that good stretch of road.

pics 2: stop over just opposite ATBU Bauchi
Pics 3: tafawa Balewa next morning(saturday)

left Abuja at 8:45, stopped over at Masaka to fill up my tank than continued to Keffi. i achieved more miles in less time as the road was good.

between keffi and kwoi, that road was something else, i lost my after market exhaust muffler there . i only noticed it when i was pulled over by the police for paper checks. between kwoi and kafanchan, fair road, made up for lost time . arrived Kafanchan by 11am. The friend i was with had called a friend whose house we stopped over to have breakfast and took takeaway

left kafanchan at 12noon, good road through Kagoro, manchok and then to vom. from Vom straight to Jos. we stopped over at Polo in Jos for our business there. Half tank of fuel left.
