My journey started from the Mile 2 bus stop. I was heading to Ojota to attend to my business. I boarded Ise Oluwa bus as usual. Yes o, those buses charge the cheapest fare to all the routes they ply.
After waiting for over ten minutes, the bus was finally full. The driver pressed the button on the dashboard to let out a loud hoot. The horning was to alert the smaller buses that packed at the exit to give way so he could pull out.
The journey had barely commenced when a man standing at the back cleared his voice and started speaking.

“Good morning my brothers and sisters, before we commence this journey; I want us to commit this journey into the hands of God.”
The preacher introduced a song; only a couple of passengers joined in singing. The preacher was disappointed at the number of people that chorused along. He called off the song.

“I don’t know why some people will be forming big man for God. If you visit Igbobi hospital, you will know that you are not better than the people there. Open your mouth and sing unto God”

By the time he introduced another song, a good number of people joined in singing and clapping. Some boys at the back took over the show from the preacher; they started singing and clapping very loudly to the amazement of everybody in the bus.
The preacher would sing “today is da day amen, da day of the lord amen.”
The rest of the passengers would echoed “today is da day amen, da day of the lord amen.”
After that song the man started prophesying into the lives of all the passengers.

Preacher: Wherever you are going today, you will come back in one piece
Passenger: Amen
Preacher: Whatever you are looking for, you will find them
Passenger: Amen
Preacher: you will receive a strange phone call

Nobody uttered a word.

Preacher: the strange call will offer you contracts
Passenger: Amen
Preacher: the stranger will offer you pounds
Passenger: Amen

The amen was louder this time around

Preacher: The plan of your enemy against you will not work
Passenger: Amen
Preacher: Amen. Please clap for our God.

The clap was thunderous.

The preacher was about to resume after he succeeded in getting the passengers to stop clapping. The three boys resumed clapping. They clapped and clapped until the rest of the passengers resumed clapping with them.
It took a sharp swerve by the driver to call the passengers to order.

Driver: See them, after this prayer; all of you still dey fear?

Everybody burst into laughter.

Passenger: Come driver, take your time o.
Preacher: Please my brothers and sisters, I haven’t finished. I am from the Roving ministry. We move from bus to bus preaching. If you have anything to give in helping to move this ministry forward, we will appreciate it. One thousand or five hundred or two hundred or hundred or fifty naira or twenty naira; whatever you can give, give.

Everywhere became quiet. The boys that had been making noise suddenly became quiet.

Preacher: Brothers and sisters please don’t keep quiet. Remember God loves a cheerful giver.

The preacher brought out a bundle of envelopes and asked the passengers to take and pass to their neighbour. People kept passing the envelopes without taking any. The preacher looked on in frustration.

Preacher: Lagosians make una give God money o

Everybody burst out laughing. I suddenly realized we have crossed New Garage heading towards Ojota.
“Ojota wa o” I shouted. In no time, we were at Ojota bus stop. The bus pulled up right under the bridge, I alighted and headed for my business.
