An Oyigbo man from Belgium sparked reactions on social media after reportedly cycling from Belgium to Ghana.
The viral video, which was spotted on TikTok, showed the cyclist riding in the rain in a town in the Western Region.
In an attempt to understand the cyclist’s motivation, a Ghanaian man questioned him about riding in such poor weather conditions. The Belgian man responded by explaining that his goal was to cycle through as many countries as possible to learn about their culture and meet new people.
The Belgian man revealed that he had embarked on his journey from Belgium in March with the goal of reaching Ghana by bicycle.
His statement:
“I decided in March, and I left for the journey with my bike and cycled to France, Spain, Morrocco, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, all the way to Ghana. I spent one month in Dakar resting”.
In the video, the man explained that he chose to embark on this journey to learn more about Africa, and praised the hospitality of Ghanaians. He also shared that he was continuing on to Accra.
The video, which was 5 minutes and 37 seconds long, garnered over 3,000 likes and 100 comments.
