Everyday in our lives we experience some acts of grace and love from people, but at some times, we witness some acts of generosity and kindness on a monumental scale, performed by ordinary people living their lives in an extraordinary way, to make a difference in their world,
By demonstrating a deep sense of humanity, towards the under privileged around them.

This was what I witnessed at NURUL RAHMAN VOLUNTARY SCHOOL SALLARE QUARTERS HAUSAWA KANO
It is a charity day school for orphaned children & those who’ve lost just their fathers, in the community. The children are not only schooled but also fed breakfast and lunch and also provided Medicare, all free.
And the amazing part is all these are self funded by Hajia Rahman who is not a politician nor married to one, but just an ordinary citizen like you and I spending their hard earned resources to make a difference in the lives of people.
There are presently 33 children, boys and girls in the school because that is the maximum number their rented building can accommodate, and this is even like stretching the facility to its limit.
While we all know that provision of basic needs like primary education is the responsibility of government but there are some ANGELS among us, doing their own bits towards giving life a meaning to some underprivileged amongst us.
During my visit to the school, I interacted with the children, and I could see the good work being done on their education.
Also, i met their mothers, and I experienced their deep sense of appreciation & joy for the education of their children, and some of the mothers even spoke English to me, being what they learnt from their children
I also had the opportunity to inspect the school, the facility is modest and small, neat and hygienic. In-spite having outgrown the size of their rented building, which is what has limited their ability to admit more children currently on waiting list.
They are however putting the little they have to the very best use.

It is also imperative to mention that the children are clothed for free and given school shoes also for free all these financed by Hajia Rahman, all to give life a new meaning for some underprivileged children.
I also met beautiful Rahama Isa, the gifted little girl holding my hand in one of the pix, who is 85% deaf in both ears. And struggling with great difficulty to cope in the school, because all she could do is to “Lip Read” to learn, understand & communicate.
I was so touched by her condition that I will be donating one of the earring aid to her .. though she requires 2

NURUL RAHMAN VOLUNTARY SCHOOL SALLARE QUARTERS HAUSAWA KANO : 0806-221-2640 needs our support to continue to do more good in the society.
They require a bigger building and purpose built for the school. All they need is a one-off help and not a continuous demand. I respectfully and humble call on Alhaji @AlikoDangote @AlikoDangoteFdn and Alhaji Abdulsamad Isiaku Rabiu to pls come to their aid.
H.E @GovUmarGanduje kindly come to their aid sir, they need your help.

God Bless and thank you sirs!

“The Sahara will humble you, and change your looks, and your attitudes about life” This was my experience on my six days transit, through the Sahara Desert! Image
The Sahara doesn’t cooperate with you, it is unfriendly, it is harsh, it is unforgiven, and the margin for error on the Sahara is so slim, you make mistakes, and you may not come back home!
The Sahara is one of the most inhospitable places on earth, it is scorching hot, the gust of wind is like hurricane force winds, and the fine sand blowing through the strong winds is like a thousand needles trying to poke through your gears into your body.

I recalled the hard day after riding 400km from Bamako Mali to the Cote d’Ivorean border & was denied entry into Cote d’Ivorie & left with the option of returning back to Bamako riding 400km again or divert to Sikasso a border town in Mali with Burkina Faso another 420km away
I felt the cries, anger and energy of every Nigerians and other Africans and also good people around the world urging the Cote d’ivorean government to open up their border for me to ingress the country.
The cries were loud and really loud. However, there are some other voices not so loud on the social media waves but really loud at the corridors of authorities and government officials, where decisions that matters are made.

I had my medicals’ today at @MYHEALTHLANE!

It was a comprehensive medical checks and it was COMPLEMENTARY!

The first “aha moment” for me arriving at HEALTHLANE was the cleanliness and serenity of the facility, it felt like a home!
The second “aha moment” was the quality of the equipments and standard, it was world class, that will probably rival the standard at Mayo Clinic!

I got all my vitals checked, without any radiation exposure or painful intrusive processes.
It was a highly positive experience for me, and a loud sound of hope that things can, and will indeed be better in Nigeria!

Thank you @MYHEALTHLANE for having me, it was a big eye opener and a pleasant experience at your facility, thank you!

A biker friend Dan, took the odometer readings on Eagle today, and it reads 11,301km, which represents the total distance I have travelled on eagle from London to Accra Ghana.
Of this figure, the total distance I covered in Europe was about 3,200km, while the remaining 8,101km has been in Africa.
Being opportuned to have travelled this huge distance across Africa from the North to the West of Africa is a uique opportunity, a great blessing which I am fortunate to experience.

I was hosted today by the Nigerian Ambassador to Cote d’Ivorie and the embassy diplomatic staff, at the Nigerian Embassy. ImageImageImageImage
I find His Excellency, Ambassador Martin Sekom Adamu a gentleman, nice, welcoming, articulate, sharp, and with sound intellectual prowess, and depth of leadership.
I was also touched by the Ambassadors level of humility, he welcomed me to his office where we had a short familiarization “chit – chat” preceding the hosting.
