I started my journey from the Kuto motor park in Abeokuta, where I boarded a bike going to the President Muhammadu Buhari estate. Normally today would be the first time I will be visiting that estate because it's a government-restricted area. For you to get inside there, you must have a very tangible reason for you to visit the place. But for the fact that I was going with someone who knows the place and it was an invitation, I was resting assured that I am safe to enter the estate that is under construction.
The journey was not a long journey because it was by bike, so it made it faster. The journey lasted for 13 minutes, and it was a 6.9 km drive from the pack to our final destination. One of the things that amazed me about this journey was that the roads that led to my final destination were all tied except for when we got to the end of the estate, and there we saw some machines that were constructed to ease the construction. But when we got to the plant where the machines used for construction were, the bike rider noticed we had missed our way and then turned to another route that would lead us to our final destination.
At some point I was scared because there were no movements at all, and I was thinking I was going on a journey I didn't know about. But it's true when they say there is always a light at the end of the tunnel. We passed through a new site that has a narrow road that led us to our final destination. In the end I loved it because it was another way for me to tour and see a new place, most especially seeing and entering the presidential estate, which is a no-go area. It was an adventurous journey.
