Alma Asinobi, a Nigerian travel content creator, has made history by becoming the first person to travel to all seven continents with a Nigerian passport.

Her journey, which took 71 hours, 26 minutes, and 25 seconds, was marked by challenges such as visa issues, flight delays, and travel restrictions due to her Nigerian passport.

She wrote: “Our Nigerian flag is officially the first and fastest flag to visit all 7 continents! I guess my work here is done. I cannot wait to be homeeeee.”

Asinobi’s achievement is notable, not just because of the feat itself, but also because it highlights the difficulties faced by Nigerians when traveling abroad.

“Gosh… Continent 8 (Dreamland) was kind to me. No visas needed, no flight needed, just a bed. To be honest any bed would have been fine. I just needed my swollen feet to not move for a few hours and all I can say is… mission accomplished.

“As I was sleeping I heard ‘this is the final boarding call…’ and I jumped out of bed startled only to realize it was only a dream. That’s not normal,” she wrote.

Although Asinobi did not break the existing Guinness World Record of 64 hours set by Johnny Cruz Buckingham, her achievement is still historic.

She is looking forward to her homecoming event on March 30, where she aims to break another record by gathering Nigerians to sign the flag she carried across the world. (The Nation)
