Abdul Sadat Habib, a passionate Ghanaian cyclist and tourism advocate, has successfully toured three regions of Ghana and is now preparing for his fourth journey.

Speaking in an interview with Dr. Kay on Accra 100.5 FM, Habib shared the motivation behind his bicycle tours and their purpose.

“I embarked on this bicycle tour to sell Ghana and improve domestic tourism,” he said.

“We often showcase Ghana in many ways, but certain places remain overlooked.

I took it upon myself to tour the country on my bike, highlight these beautiful locations, and encourage Ghanaians to explore their own country.

This not only allows outsiders to see our beauty but also strengthens our national unity.

When people from Ada visit Kumasi, they realise nothing will happen to them, and the same goes for the other way.

It builds trust and unity among Ghanaians.” When asked who finances and supports his tours, Habib revealed that he funds the trips himself.

“I worked in Libya and, upon returning, noticed that most Ghanaians are focused on football, business, or academia.

Tourism is a huge opportunity we are not fully utilising.

So, I decided to use my own resources to support the country in this unique way.

While a few people encourage me along the way, I am currently managing everything on my own,” he added.

Habib’s initiative is a testament to the power of individual effort in promoting Ghana’s tourism, culture, and unity.

His ongoing bicycle tour continues to inspire fellow Ghanaians to explore their country and discover its hidden treasures.
