A young Nigerian man, known as Mr. Nigeria101, has been trekking from Ibadan to Abuja since December 1, 2024, to meet President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. His mission is to demonstrate loyalty and deliver a letter representing the voices of Nigerian youths, highlighting their struggles and hardships.
Despite covering over 600 kilometers, Mr. Nigeria101’s journey has largely gone unnoticed by the government and the public. He has taken to TikTok to express his frustration, sharing videos that have garnered significant attention. In a recent video, he pleaded for support and recognition, saying his spirit has almost been broken due to the lack of attention.
The situation has taken a dire turn, with Mr. Nigeria101 vowing to continue protesting and wandering until his demands are met or until his death, should President Tinubu fail to acknowledge his efforts. His letter to the President focuses on the struggles of common Nigerians, especially the youths, amid the country’s hardship.
It’s worth noting that Mr. Nigeria101’s actions have sparked mixed reactions, with some criticizing his decision to trek such a long distance, while others admire his determination and courage.
