Pelumi Nubi's problem with Customs officials
According to Pelumi, the Customs Control officials at the Sierra Leone border faulted her use of right-hand drive.
She added that they did not believe she was travelling from London to Lagos by road and even requested money from her.
Pelumui explained in her video:
"️THEY SAID ‘ACCESS DENIED’! so close to the finish line and I am facing a tide of challenges that feels relentless. Each border crossing, a battle against multiple red tapes, this time Sierre Leone they don’t want to let my ‘right-hand’ drive car to come into their country! The road is long, and at times, it feels like for every step forward, I'm pushed three steps back," she explained.
Pelumi, who entered Africa days ago, appreciated netizens for the massive support shown to her and called for more encouragement towards her cause.
