Backpacking Stories Across Nigeria
This is a collection of 25 stories drawn from his travels in 19 states of the country. Some of the stories include his visits to Kanta Museum (Kebbi), a ride in the Abuja Metro, an overnight stay in Gusau (Zamfara), a Christmas spent in Markurdi (Benue), and stumbling on the Biafra bunker in Oron (Akwa Ibom). In addition to these, Awofeso also includes his report on the bi-centennial anniversary of the Sokoto Caliphate in 2004 as well as the 2016 coronation of the current Oba of Benin. The collection also includes his tour of the Olowo’s ancient palace in Ondo, the Ogunde Living history museum, and walking the monkey-bridges of Yenagoa, Bayelsa State. Two photo-story sections feature the Kambari people (Niger State) and the tomb/mausoleum in Bauchi of Nigeria’s first and only prime minister Tafawa Balewa.
