Isa Mohammed Munlaila, a Nigerian citizen, has embarked on a trek from Lagos to Abuja to express his dissatisfaction with the present administration.
Dressed in a black T-Shirt and carrying a box painted in what seemed like the colours of the All Progressives Congress flag — green, white, blue and red — he stated that the walk is also to protest against the reeelection bid of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Addressing newsmen on Thursday morning as he prepared to commence his journey, as reported by PM News, Munlaila, who wore dark glasses and carried the box on his head, lamented that there is suffering in the country, and that the present administration has failed in fulfilling its campaign promises.
It won't be the first time a Nigerian is embarking on a long-distance trek for political reasons.
In April 2015, 33-year-old Hashimu Suleiman trekked from Lagos to Abuja to celebrate President Muhammadu Buhari's election victory.

Abubakar Duduwale, a diehard fan of President Buhari, also trekked from Yola to Abuja to witness the presidential inauguration in May 2015. However, it's not all smiles for him as he is still dealing with a leg injury arising from the trip.
