  8. With the whole issue goibg on in Naija…na to go kayak una know. Come out and register for vote. That is the thing. One love naija

  9. Since you are here, you must be looking for the best kayaking jackets on the market. There are tons of kayaking jackets available on the market, but not all of them is worth your time. It is highly suggested that the kayakers who are kayaking in choppy water should always use kayaking life jacket. Just like you, we also love kayaking, but some of us don”t know swimming. If you are one of them, you should always wear a kayaking jacket.

  10. Hi you failed to mention Kayak Lagos but quoted our prices. We launch from Oyinkan Abayomi Drive and believe we along with help from nothingtodoinlagos, were the pioneers that got Lagosians kayaking.
