@David, what is your shoe size? You can use an hiking shoe and would like to bring you one when I’m in Abuja in May, Let me know what you think. Great and impressive work 👌
This was an amazing journey as are your other adventures. You are a Nigerian National Treasure and i don't know why the Nigerian government does not employ you as a travel ambassador.
I did my NYSC in Gembu. Taraba is a very amazing state. You did a very good job travelling to these places. Many places and people in Nigeria are foreign to the average Nigerian. Your journey is during their harmattan, you could have seen how lush and beautiful this place looks during the rainy season.
David, this is second time I am watching this video, looks it's edited, anyway, you are NOT old, so, DO NOT call man on yourself when it's not the Time yet, 90-100 years considered old Period
You are correcting someone without telling him the answer! How do we believe your stance without making us know the answer so we can look it up on the internet?
@@abeikubiney2162 Nope highest point is Mount Fogo in Cape Verde, over 9000 feet, check it out. Mount Afadja seems much lower than Chappal Wadi actually, I see just under 3000 feet online while Chappal is over 7000 feet.
Cameroon is found in West & Central Africa and the highest peak is Mount Cameroon with a high of 13,250ft. And how can he be saying the beacon septates Cameroon & Nigeria & you claim Cameroon isn't found in West Africa. Note part of Cameroon is in West Africa
Yes Geographically you are correct part of Cameroon is found in west Africa, however even UN recognises Cameroon as central Africa, hence while they are not even part of ECOWAS
This "point of correction" is the PERFECT example of why AFRICANS are fractured. The COLONIAL divisions are embedded and branded within souls with simple geopolitical cartography that created deep hate amongst NEIGHBORS and BROTHERS. Mister Nkwa, thank you for sharing the beauty and awe of your journey to show us links to each other physically and geographically....One day may all nations of this majestic continent connect in spirit and in heart. Brother, your vision and passion to show this CONTINENT shall ALWAYS BE FUNDED. You shall never lack.
Yes, Mount Cameroon is highest point in Central Africa not West Africa. No, Mount Fogo in Cape Verde is the highest point in West Africa at 2829 metres/9281 feet. I climbed it so I know. On a mission to climb all the high points of Africa's regions and have Southern and Central Africa left. Sadly I am Nigerian and would have loved to start with Chappal Waddi but sadly there's no proper system for tourism there as usual with Nigeria. Props to people like David Nkwa doing it anyway but my adventures are balanced by going where there's some structure to avoid too many stories that touch.
@@DavidNkwa Yes Cameroon is not part of ECOWAS because that's base on regional political and economic union but glad you said geographicaly Cameroon is located in West & Central Africa thus making Mt. Cameroon partly stretching from West to Central Africa. Please check Wikipedia and understand why you can't keep Cameroon out of West Africa due to economic union. Remember part of Cameroon the English speaking regions where joined with Nigeria before the reunification where part of Northern Nigeria decided to stay in Nigeria & the West Cameroon had to join the East Cameroon. So geographicaly Cameroon is part West & Central Africa . Amazing video anytime you find yourself in Cameroon we can go hiking Mt Cameroon & see some active volcanic craters
Keep up the work sir❤, I feel inspired. May Allah’s Rahman be on you always❤️. Hopefully, I’d explore the north with you someday. A travel guide on the internet would make so much sense sir❤️. Im looking forward to seeing your response.
David, you make me cry realizing how much I love everyone right of my country. This should be a famous tourist attraction, but alas, with bad leadership and insecurity,I can only see this beauty on the screen. Thank you for taking the risk to show the beauty of our dear nation and of our peoples even in our diversity. ❤❤❤❤❤
Yes, it's a beautiful place . Hopefully, one day, we will have a serious government that will develop the place and make it safer for more people to visit. Thank my sister for watching. God bless you.
That was wow wow wow wow! Too much to even say about it but the PEACE you felt when you arrived after such a long, exhausting journey. I felt it as well 🙏 The mountain of death gave life 🦅🏔️🌅
Good job. Just hope the new the Minister/Ministry of Tourism is watching this type of video to promote/encorage both internal and external Tourism in the Country. Please any useful list of preparations for the Climbing? Thanks.
Amazing David you are an inspiration believe me some of us we never know what we have if not for this kind of video , you are truly doing great work thank you
"Boys"as you call the youth. Have better respiratory systems and more endurance - therefore they can handle the rigours of hiking more easily. This was a real expedition, thanks for bringing us along.
Nigeria is one diverse and unique country. 4 days to get to its highest point! Respect to your adventurous spirit brother. I truly enjoyed watching this episode.
Well done brother for going where a lot of us wanted to visit and never could for various reasons. The farthest I ever went in Nigeria in my 20s was Kogi and Benue before I gave up. Instead I explored Lagos into the neighbouring countries via Cotonou by road. Nothing extreme like you do. I just go to any place. Then use local transportation to go everywhere I can go, walk around, see the sights, eat the food and return to the capital then out of the place. No documentation, no technology like today. There wasn’t insecurity problems in those days. Just language barrier and Nigerians were nicer and more welcoming everywhere you go in those days. Someone always speak pidgin English for hit road blocks anywhere. Well done for showing the parks of Nigeria, they have been forgotten.
You are very right. Insecurity is hindering a lot of people from exploring these places and truly it takes courage to visit, despite the stories you hear before going. Although when you get to the community, people are always very friendly and wiling to assist.
@@DavidNkwa We are not all that brave yet. Especially those of us who live abroad. We are used to buses and trains arriving in 5 minutes. On a bike for hours nonstop? That is a lot to ask for. 30 years ago? Yes. Not now. We will wait until it’s safe and easier. I didn’t know that we had roads in parts of Nigeria that looked like they belong in Bolivia’s Andes Mountains until I saw your video. I was wondering where in Nigeria is this and kept on checking the maps just to be sure as the people checked. I continue to pray for Nigeria as I believe in our country. We will get better leaders to solve these challenges someday. Soon we hope. And your videos can become our travellers guide as a nation. Thank you for what you do. It’s not easy even if everything was fine in Nigeria. Well done.
Please support me by sharing this video and liking it
Nigeria is definitely beautiful. Nice video.
I also wonder how people who live here access healthcare and provisions,food stuffs etc. I can't just imagine. Omo this journey is not for the weak.
It is not Ibi River but the River Benue crossing at Ibi town.
@David, what is your shoe size? You can use an hiking shoe and would like to bring you one when I’m in Abuja in May,
Let me know what you think.
Great and impressive work 👌
Thank you so so much for showing me Nigeria
This was an amazing journey as are your other adventures. You are a Nigerian National Treasure and i don't know why the Nigerian government does not employ you as a travel ambassador.
thank you brother
Without a doubt you content is one of the best in Nigeria..you see places and you show us in a way never been seen before.
Thank you
Nigeria has every weather and geographic climate available on Earth except for the polar climate.
Hello! I hear you say death again. Im sure this is mountain of death. Whyy are you there?? We need you 🙏
🤣🤣
You have the wrong shoes for mountain climbing.
Good job on the documentary. Great video.
Nice job but don't let your hand " illegally" migrate" into Cameroon !
🤣🤣
Blessings & more peace to you!
Wow, wow wow.
Thank you so much for the support always
This your job is not for the fainthearthed.
More grace , brother.
Amen 🙏
Where is the SNOW CAPPED MOUNTAIN TOP shown as the caption of this video ???.
You did well, but show your viewers the correct picture next time.
I did my NYSC in Gembu. Taraba is a very amazing state. You did a very good job travelling to these places. Many places and people in Nigeria are foreign to the average Nigerian.

Imagine if the government made the roadable. With toll gates.... the people will find a way to monetize airbnb and tours.
IGBO man will turn any opportunity to business opportunity. "Any man wey touch car, na $200" got me laughing.
Lol 😆
David, this is second time I am watching this video, looks it's edited, anyway, you are NOT old, so, DO NOT call man on yourself when it's not the Time yet, 90-100 years considered old Period
Thank you
In Cameroon sid we have more taller rocks than that one. Check out the Rhum Siki Mountains on the border.
Interesting video, keep it up. And a point of correction, that's not the highest point of West Africa but Nigeria rather. Thank you.
You are correcting someone without telling him the answer! How do we believe your stance without making us know the answer so we can look it up on the internet?
@@nmg1909 very well noted and for clarity, I meant no disrespect.The highest point of West Africa is Mount Afadja, located in Ghana.
@@abeikubiney2162 Nope highest point is Mount Fogo in Cape Verde, over 9000 feet, check it out. Mount Afadja seems much lower than Chappal Wadi actually, I see just under 3000 feet online while Chappal is over 7000 feet.
What's the height?
They need a jeep to navigate these areas. Trekking is good exercise
It is the highest point in West Africa. Cameroon is not part of West Africa. It's in Central Africa.

I thought the highest point in Nigeria is in Plateau state...?

Good job. Just hope the new the Minister/Ministry of Tourism is watching this type of video to promote/encorage both internal and external Tourism in the Country. Please any useful list of preparations for the Climbing? Thanks.

You are doing great bro🙌
