Three men, who trekked to Yola in honour of former
Vice President Atiku Abubakar, are now stranded in
Yola.
According to ThePunch the men, Salihu Jibrin, Aliyu Adamu and Abubakar
Suleiman, who spoke to newsmen Saturday in Yola,
said since their arrival they were unable to see their
mentor, Atiku.

They said all they needed was to see Atiku or his
representatives to deliver their messages and go
back to their various destinations.
“I trekked for 38 days all the way from Lagos to
Yola to see Atiku in view of his role over APC
victory in the general election but up and until now,
I was unable to see him.
“I am now stranded with no money to go back; at
times I sleep in motor park or squat with good
Samaritans,” Jibrin said .
Adamu, who rode bicycle from Kaduna to Yola, said
he spent eight days on the way.
“I want to thank the Secretary, Nigeria Union of
Journalists, Adamawa Council, Mr Baba Zare, who
had been assisting me since arrival to cope with the
difficult situation I found myself.
“I want to meet Atiku before finding my way back to
Kaduna,” Adamu said.
On his part, Suleiman, who trekked from Shelleng
town, Adamawa, to Yola said he had been squatting
from one relation to the other while waiting for an
opportunity to see Atiku before going back home.
