In my article about two days ago titled the lost trekkers, I asked how many more people will trek and it looks as if this treks are far from over.
A 35year old woman Mrs Alice Daniel has left her husbands house with her 40 day old baby to trek from Minna to Abuja to congratulate the president elect- Buhari.
Mrs. Alice said her Husband said he had a dream that President Jonathan would lose the election. But she told the husband that an incumbent president cannot lose the Presidential election and she made a bet that if Jonathan lost, she would trek from Minna to Abuja to personally congratulate Pres. elect, Buhari. She made this bet when she was heavily pregnant with her now new born daughter.
According to her, in an interview with Newsline, she gave birth to her last child on April 2, 2015, and that she was determined to fulfill her promise .
Mrs. Alice, told Newsline that her husband, mother and some family members as well as friends tried to stop her from embarking on her journey, but that her mind was made up to fulfill the bet she made.
When asked of the health hazard of her mission on her and her newly born baby girl, considering the fact that she gave birth just barely 40 days ago, she expressed optimism that nothing would happen to her and her child and that the only thing she looked forward to was for her to accomplish her mission.
She started her journey at about 6:00am on Sunday, from Chanchaga bridge, she said she's enjoying the experience so far, she also said some motorists have offered to assist her but she declined determined to trek to Abuja like she said she would, she said some people have given her money and cheered her on.
