London to Lagos biker, Mr Kunle Adeyanju has narrated how he cheated death during the 41 days travel four times.

Adeyanju disclosed this at a reception organised in his honour by the Rotary Club in Ilorin, Kwara State.

“Truth is that every kilometre of the 12,000 I covered was fraught with challenges, pains and difficulties. Several times I came close to dying. I actually saw death several times. When people say they saw death I never believed that but when I saw that like four times in Sahara and Mali I now believe that death exists. God just wants to keep me alive that is why death did not take me. But one thing I said to myself was that whatever it took I would not quit,” he added.

On the motive behind the adventure, the Offa- born biker said that “doing this was basically to achieve two purposes of raising awareness of end polio message by seeing how we can see the level of vaccines acceptance. The second objective was to raise funds. For me the two had been accomplished because everybody is now aware of polio. Polio has got a renewed drive as we have the vaccines to end the virus.”

He said, “I am very happy that the message has taken a global dimension.  The London-Lagos ride covered a total of 12,000 kilometres spanning through 13 countries and 41 cities. I Left London April 19th and arrived in Lagos on May 29th.”

In his remarks, the president of Rotary Clubs in the state, Chief Rich Oladele, said the bike rider had done the state and indeed Nigeria proud.

“He has written the name of Nigeria on a global map and in the Guinness Book of Records. He is a member of Rotary Club International,” Oladele said.
