So this is their central moleu state.
Their central is so massive, very big.
So good.
That's coconut tree.
>> You see this place?
It's not the owner. They are not around and the front of it people are people are living there.
Our whole job is just to explore the town, you know, meeting people of the community is try to ask them one or two questions. That's one thing. The migo at least we we got to learn new things about the place we go to when we meet people. But mostly sometime like that we at least see people to talk to like just to ask them the questions about where they where they are living. But I always try all my process to pull to you know to push so hard to do whatever I'm because the right information is is so important. It's better you should not make any video to mix the information that is not correct the incorrect information that I always try my possible best to do whatever you know I work so hard to put out the right information for people to see.
Good morning.
Only people who are are living in this community level. So if you walk straight like this, we are going to reach the the federal road.
I'll read there. I'm going to come back.
You see this place too? There are so many nice houses in the community. Most of them people are not living there.
Some people are still rich right here.
You know people was living here some years ago but today the house nobody is living there. The nature nature claim they they claim they are they they claim the building. Nature claim the building. This is part of this is what will happen when people are not living in the town again. Nature they will claim back the what people build.
So like this house there is one nice house in this place now. But on nature they take back the house. So there is nothing left the house that is there.
There's a lot of bush and everything tree in the house because people that owns the house maybe the owner their children might be in another country.
Who knows? Or they might be in another another state a big city.
I feel so I've seen something like this house to be like this.
There's a church in this community.
Mostly houses I'm seeing in this community is quietly let's just say they are old they are old good houses but people are baron I don't know the reason why is like that and there's nobody to ask no one in the community this place the village but people are still building something good like this one now these are the coconut trees in front of it and Today people are not here no more. You see this nice wood house in this community they lock it.
Nobody and this place too left right and left.
Yeah, see people are seeing here and there's a church the redeemed church if I walk like this I will see the mir road mir road this place is not far to you know there's one house nice house right here too. The the house is owned good, you know. It's a very big giant house today. Maybe this is a company. I don't know this place. Maybe this place is not a house because the building is so massive.
Nature claim everything here.
Nature claim everything. Now you see it.
This is so big.
This is really so big.
And this is a federal road.
Only God knows the reason why this place is like this. Now I'm here alone by myself inside bush.
Nobody is with me.
That's so crazy, man.
I have to be very careful in somewhere like this.
Only brave people can do what I'm showing you guys.
I'm the only one that can be showing you. This is the front of it right here.
Hello.
Nobody on this place.
This is all about this place.
Where I am is part of.
So this place you see the road they have in this place. This pattern was this another side.
That place guys another side right there. We'll be walking through this place.
Part of where we are is so deserted.
No, there is nothing. You see nobody.
You don't see anyone.
This place is a village, but they are big.
like where we are particularly is so big.
Trust me.
>> I just like their road.
If possible, I will show you the end of this road if possible.
But I will not walk. I'll be trying to find a bike.
That might be where we will stop the the video of this town.
What's up? Are you from this community?
This place is okay. All right. Take care. Ehu.

Nature started taking everything.
I swear it is same thing everywhere that same thing totally nothing change nothing change just like state I swear despite one thing I just like about people of this side they are coming back to build something good but they will just build it and leave those places.
That's the only sad part of it and nature will started taking taking the building there this church is St. Mary Catholic Jebu and our Savior's Mary our Savior and Mary Primary School is right here. The school was established year 9 1902.
Okay friends come Exactly.
