Rachel Ola dreams of one day being the best female surfer in Nigeria, but to start with she’d like to be able to buy a board in the country.

Surfing is not hugely popular in the West African country.

However when Rachel first saw it she told BBC Minute she was intrigued, got hooked and now hopes that more Nigerians will take it up.
