London To Lagos Biker: Reactions as Kunle enters Ivory Coast

Courageous biker, Kunle Adeyanju has released a new tweet, indicating that he has arrived in Cote d’Ivoire after initially being denied access into the West African country.

Kunle had told reporters two days ago that border authorities found issues with his laissez-passer, a travel document issued to him by the Nigerian Embassy in Mali.

He said the issue was being sorted out and had to wait. It does appear that all coasts were cleared as Kunle rode into Burkina Faso on May 16th and went through there to Cote d’Ivoire.

He shared photos of him being welcomed at the Burkina Faso-Cote d’Ivoire border by fellow bikers who gathered around him.

According to the itinerary initially released by the biker, there are four more countries he will touch before he will finally reach Lagos.

The countries are Gambia, Togo, Ghana and Benin Republic. See his tweet below:
