He was the one who told the young man to choose between moving to Europe and joining the Nigerian Army. The young ma opted to travel to Europe but through the tortuous land borders full of dangers. Of course, it ended in tears.

Narrating his story to LegitTV, Endurance said:

"In 2017 when I finished my secondary school, my father told me that I should come and travel. When I got to Libya, there was war. Every day, they use to kill people in our camp. One night, they killed 820 people in our camp. They throw bomb in our camp, but God rescued me.
"I wanted to cross to Italy. I spent 21-hours on top of the sea. Before you, Libyan people came and now shoot the boat. Out of 180, only 14 of us survived it. And they took us to underground prison. From underground, they now deported us to Nigeria."
