EPISODE INFO
Title : Episode 2
Airdate : 2024-04-23
Episode plot : Michael starts the second part of his adventure by climbing Dala Hill in the centre of the ancient city of Kano in Northern Nigeria. From the top, the view is spellbinding, and this is the starting point of an 800-mile road trip across Nigeria.Michael and Mohammad Adamu - who's lived in Kano all his adult life - arrive at the open air stadium to explore and witness the ancient Hausa sport of Dambe Boxing. Nigeria is made up of hundreds of different ethnic groups and the North is dominated by the Hausa people. The Boxing is both brutal and elegant, a form of income and a right of passage club for young men often from poor parts of the city.The next morning, Michael meets a very special young woman: Amina Ali Nkeki, one of the 276 schoolgirls who were kidnapped by Boko Haram in 2014. In an extraordinarily emotional interview she tells Michael her harrowing story - of how she was forced marry one of her captors. But she also tells of her relief at being finally reunited with her mother after a traumatic escape.Michael then hits the road on the first stage of his journey, and whilst the roads of Northern Nigeria have a reputation for danger, his first stop is a complete surprise: a luxury hotel and polo club. He meets Harrow educated Polo Player Folarin Kuku, who explains the apparent mis-match of colonial sport and contemporary Nigerian economics.The next day Michael swaps the road for a train, arriving in the brand-new capital city of Abuja. With wide, tree-lined avenues and modern tall glass offices, Abuja feels a bit like Los Angeles to Michael, and has been hailed as a vision of Nigeria's future. Just outside the city, he visits the huge, 300-metre high Zuma rock, a vast historical symbol for the nation.A potholed road then takes Michael to the city of Lokoja, where the Niger and Benue rivers converge. As he arrives, he sees an incredibly energetic traffic policewoman, Onoja Joy, whose dance-like moves keep the incredibly busy traffic flowing.Lokoja was once the centre of Britain's Colonial rule of Nigeria and was the base of Lord Frederick Lugard, the Governor-General of Nigeria who first brought North and South Nigeria together as one country. At the top of Mount Patti, Michael and Chris Nwobu discuss the lasting impact of British rule on Nigeria, and the legacy of the empire on the country in the 21st century.
