"Madam, 'dress' well. Na four four we dey carry for
this bus..."
And before the conductor could finish up...
.
.
.
"Thunder fire you!"

"No be 200naira we pay?"

"Onye oshi!" (criminal)

"Illiterate!"

"Tufiakwa!!!"

The conductor replied no one.
Still, the insults continued, until...

"God punish your mama!"

Immediately, the conductor's countenance
changed. Silently, I observed the anger-induced
metamorphosis. It was, to me, something akin to
Con dar---the blood rage. Lost in that keen
observation and oh, a certain kind of admiration, I
couldn't help but move from one realm of wonder
to another.
Suddenly, he spoke.
"Madam, I take God beg you. If you no wan lose
your eye, no call my mama. You fit call me
Illiterate, I no mind. But if you call my mama
again...*he touched the earth with a finger, licked
it, and pointed it to the sky*, I swear, you go lose
your eye."
Silence.
I guess the entire passengers saw it too---the
sincerity in his anger;...
The fiery love of a son for his
mother.

Insulting people's parents only shows an apparent decadence in the person's upbringing?
