That picture is showing Utako opposite ABC Transport office and not Lagos. I know that fence and those houses like the back of my hand.

Opposite those houses, God is good transport have their park and there is a police station right beside it. After the fence is former Daily trust office which presently houses a Stanbic IBTC bank branch.

I'm sure residents of Abuja will corroborate my claim.

I disagree. My facts are;

* Take a closer look at the plate number, its calibrated in BLUE. Commercial vehiles' plate numbers are Calibrated in RED, while Government vehicles are calibrated in GREEN.

* Location of the G-wagon is a suspect; not looking like a motor park, methinks that someone decides to park by the road side, and yes, many make-shift road side parking when you give a lad 200 Naira to look after your car by the road, while you hit the ATM for petty cash or jump to get some cigars.

What I really think;

As soon as a dude tells someone to look after his truck, a joker takes the sign from a loading vehicle, places it on the Mercedes and takes pictures for his online adventures.

N/B: Am not saying that its not possible to use the Mercedes for intra-town transportation, after all, all animals are not equal, but this case scenario doesnt add up.

I think its a private motorist doing kabu kabu. Maybe he is going to Lagos for the weekend from Abuja and decided to carry peeps so as to get some change. It happens alot in ABJ where peeps using private cars pick people up for long distance journey. If u look properly, dude is going to Lagos via Akure, Ille Ife, Ibadan and Lagos as final bus stop. So he will carry anybody who is going to any of these towns. I have entered several cars like that from Utako, ABJ there

Why do we just see a pix and believe anything and everything we see. Cant we just for once use our brains to analyse pictures? Do we need to be told that someone must have put the wooden sign on the wagon and snapped d pix? How can a car be plying those different routes at d same time? Does it mean it plies Ilorin today, then Osogbo tomoro or wat? And moreso if that wagon is for commercial purpose I think the plate numbers would be in RED. Im sure we should all know how much a G-wagon costs!

It doesn't even make sense no matter how you think about it even though it is a retrofitted 12 years old G-Wagon.

If as a billionaire, condition begin stone you and you decide to make some quick cash with your exotic car, will you consider getting a commercial plate number a priority or even a necessity before you hit the road knowing fully well that life might soon turn a corner for you like the 'have been' will always hope?

You have a point there, but the use of the word `kabu kabu' connotes a permanent use of vehicle for commercial transportation. Am I wrong ?
