UK-based Nigerian Woman, Pelumi Nubi who is on a solo trip from London to Lagos has been involved in a Ghastly Car Accident.
Pelumi posted on her X handle (formerly Twitter) a video with the caption “Please pray for me”. The video contained graphic images of the car which she began her trip with. The incident occurred shortly after she arrived in Liberia, where she had encountered previous challenges during her journey.
The 28-year-old travel content creator, Pelumi Nubi who started the trip on Tuesday, January 30th, 2024 said she intended to show the world that “impossible” is just a word while adding that when one has enough grit and determination, impossibility would be overlooked. She also said her travel itinerary was to start from England, then cross into France, then Spain, and head to Morocco. She added, “After that, it’s through the West Sahara Desert, Mauritania, Senegal, The Gambia, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Mali, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Ghana, Togo, Benin, and finally Nigeria, reaching Lagos. We will see how things go!”
She also noted how she had chatted with people who had had similar adventures, stressing that though no black woman had ever embarked upon such a journey, hers was not record-breaking motivated. The travel content creator in 2022 listed 77 countries she had visited at the age of 27. And now has reached 80 out of the 193 countries in the world.
