Pelumi Nubi has driven through four countries and is getting close to Lagos.

In January 2024, Pelumi Nubi announced that she’d be making the audacious decision to travel from London to Lagos by road.

Travel content creator Pelumi Nubi planned to travel across 17 nations in two months, taking in every city and landscape along the route.

She started her journey on Wednesday, January 31, 2024. Her path has taken her from England to France, Spain, Morocco, and through the huge West Sahara Desert.

From there, she'll go via Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Mali, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, and Benin before arriving triumphantly in Lagos.

Pelumi has been sharing her experience on social media, letting the public know about her experiences and sharing sights and sounds from her journey.

She made it to Morocco, the first African country, on February 10, and she’s now in Senegal, sharing pictures of herself and some facts on her Instagram page:

"I touched down in Dakar, Senegal’s vibrant capital! Here are three fun facts about this magnificent monument:

  • It’s taller than the Statue of Liberty!
  • It symbolises Africa’s liberation from European rule.
  • Annually, it attracts thousands of visitors, contributing significantly to the local economy."

Pelumi has nine African countries to drive through before arriving in Nigeria; she hopes to be in Lagos by the end of March.
