    Wowwwww I was reduced to tears when I first watched this video. It brought back memories of when I used to be in this “okada” business. I didn’t get the chance to cross the bother to Nigeria from Cameroon but I’ve traveled across family routes. Watching now makes me understand the risks that are involved in this types of business considering we carry far more luggage than the bike is designed for.

    • @thomasmaughan4798
      @thomasmaughan4798 Год назад

      "without consulting the indigenous people"
      How is that to be done? Nigeria reportedly has 300 spoken languages.
      "Nigeria is a multinational state inhabited by more than 250 ethnic groups speaking 500 distinct languages, all identifying with a wide variety of cultures."
      (Wikipedia)
      Yes, the Europeans created the borders to separate European colonies. These borders mean little to the hundreds of different tribes that occupy these lands.

    Traveling restrictions among African countries need to be removed. When the goods transported are of no danger to human health they must be allowed to move freely without enduring such hardship as could be seen here. The road in the first place is not even good, the villages are in a very horrific condition but the people intermingle peacefully among themselves. So why, not legalize what they are doing when African nations could not provide these for them? Africa wake up and own up to your responsibility.
    Removing the borders would reduce poverty by 40%. It will even make the people to promote harmony, unity, peace and progress of the African countries.

    One can see how petrol is smuggled across the borders it really sad.
    The govt of both country could establish a highway between the two countries which will in turn further trade and secure those places, but as usual the govt lack the Will to do it.

      If you check the Map, Nigeria borders Cameroon on the Eastern part of the Country. Cameroon is far more accessible by road from Nigeria in the northeastern part, than the southern part, through Calabar. The Federal Ministry of works led by Hon. Minister Babatunde Raji Fashola just completed the construction of a bridge, linking a village in a local Government in calabar to Cameroon.

    • @YourDay67

      North Nigeria was part of British colonial territory called British Northern Cameroon along with Southern Cameroon which borders Calabar in Nigeria. Northern Cameroon voted in a referendum to join Nigerian while Southern Cameroon joined Cameroon, which currently in conflict. Both British Northern Cameroon (now Northern Nigeria) and British Southern Cameroon (now with French Eastern Cameroon) were under British colonial rule prior to October 1961. Take a look at the map of Cameroon right from Far Northern West to Southern West, then align it with Nigeria map you will understand it better. Thanks
