The way some Nigerians celebrate success is quite unique and with the success of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in the March 28 presidential elections, many of his supporters have been embarking on hitherto unknown tasks to show their happiness.

After one Hashimu Suleiman purportedly trekked from Lagos to Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, to show his solidarity with the president-elect, another staunch supporter of the former military head of state, Abukakar Duduwale, decided to embark on a foot trek from Adamawa to Abuja to be part of the May 29 inauguration.

Now, a 35-year-old man from Kaduna State, Mohammed Kabiru Jafaru, has embarked on a bicycle ride from the Crocodile state to Lagos, ostensibly to thank the Yorubas for voting in Buhari and vice president-elect, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.

Jafaru who began his cycling adventure on April 27, said he hope to meet Osinbajo and also thank the Yorubas for massively supporting Buhari.

Hear him:

"I have decided to embark on this journey to Lagos because I want to go and thank Yoruba people for their immense support and contributions that led to the victory of General Muhammadu Buhari during the March 28 presidential election.

The decision to undertake the journey came to my mind after analysing the votes cast for Buhari by the Yoruba people and after I discussed my intention with my immediate family and friends, they encouraged me to go on the journey."
