Mallam Husseini Lawal, a 30-year-old Fulani man, trekking from Abuja to Lagos for the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, to contest the 2023 presidential election has arrived Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.
Lawal, who hails from Durum town in Kabo Local Government Area of Kano State, disclosed that he embarked on the journey based on his believe that it is only Tinubu that can deliver the nation from its present political, social and economic quagmire.
He added that his believe is reinforced based on the fact that Tinubu single-handedly transformed Lagos and its residents during his time as governor from 1999 to 2007.
Naija News learnt that Lawal commenced the trekking at exactly 11:27am on Wednesday March 9, 2022, at Abuja City Gate with four shirts, two trousers, and two pairs of shoes. 
He added that one of the shoes had got spoilt on the road and he had thrown it away.
He explained that he has been feeding on the generosity of some people he met in villages and communities that he passed through between Abuja and Ibadan, as well as truck drivers.
He stated further that he has been sleeping in mosques that accommodated him at night. He added that he would wash his clothes in the community and would continue the journey the following morning.
Lawal arrived Ibadan exactly 20 days after leaving Abuja for Lagos.
Though he stopped by briefly at the NUJ Press Centre in Ibadan to let journalists know that he was determined to complete the mission. He has also left for Lagos.
He is expected to end the journey at Tafawa Balewa Square in Lagos.
His words: “I am a Fulani cattle rearer , who had trekked with his cows front Kano to Niger Republic, and from Niger to Sokoto and back to Kano on foot. So, trekking from Abuja to Lagos is nothing to me, whether you will believe me or not.”
