The Warriors fan travelling to Egypt by road, Alvin Zhakata, has reportedly been denied entry into Ethiopia.

Zhakata and his South African counterpart Botha Msila are taking a road adventure across Africa from Cape Town and hopes to reach Cairo before the Afcon tournament.

They are currently on the Kenyan border with Ethiopia, and according to Star FM journalist Yvonne Mangunda, the duo has been denied entry into Ethiopia because of visa issues.

Mangunda says she has been in contact with Zhakata who informed her that they are stuck at the border as the Ethiopian immigration laws now require visas for Zimbabweans and South Africans travelling by road.

Besides the visa issue, Botha also revealed on Twitter that the other challenge they have faced in their Cape to Cairo road adventure is communication with the locals, especially in East Africa where Swahili is widely spoken.
