My Experience In The Hands Of One Chance Driver And His Crew by VickyRotex(f): 11:23am On Apr 10, 2015
After seeing the thread about the one chance taxi driver that was caught, I’m sharing a similar experience I had in 2012.


It was on a Saturday afternoon, I boarded a taxi at AYA Abuja, my intention was to alight at Naomi plaza/park (A mini-zoo) but I wasn’t familiar with the place, sad my friends only told me it’s about #60 to #70 from AYA.


For those who had similar experience, you’ll rememeber that, it’s usually four people in the cab before you get in. i.e the driver, a passenger beside him, and two other passengers behind. Then the victim becomes the fifth/last passenger. undecided

In my own case, there was a man (in white) sitting next to the driver, a dirty looking youth (the "invisible dollar" owner), and a woman embarassed (should be in her late-30’s).

I was so comfortable seeing a woman, especially being an elderly woman, I knew I wasn’t in the midst of men alone. Little did I know that comfort would disappear in few minutes undecided


My mistake was telling the driver I don’t know the park (I don’t really see it as a mistake tho, cos I believe it’s a good thing to ask questions when you’re not clear)


The driver and his crew took advantage of that fact, and just about a minute to get to the park, they started their usual story of dollars.

The dirty guy said he wanted to alight, and told the driver to open the trunk so he could take his “Ghana must go” the driver paused and asked the boy if truly he is the owner of the bags, the boy said yes, and "Boom" shocked the whole arguement started.

(Oh before that day, I only hear of one chance, never heard the full gist from anyone, so I was still enjoying the conversation)

The driver asked how can such a young boy be going about with 100 thousand dollars, shocked ghen ghen, that’s when my eyes opened. I was like 100 thousand dollar in this car? Okay na. Bring it on. (How did the driver get to know the actual amount? I asked myself) Just when I asked myself that question, the woman asked the driver how he got to know the exact amount, then he said, its written on the bags cheesy cheesy (Kai, they were tryna sell me) angry


The boy kept begging and crying, defending himself with some fake stories, how he served his boss in kano for 10years and he wasn’t paid well, now the Boss is dead, and he entered one of his rooms, and saw 10 bags filled with dollars, shocked then he carried three of the bags cos he was in a hurry (I was like, if you were not rushing you’d have carried more? shocked undecided Greed!!! And how can you possibly carry 3 bags filled with dollars from kano, and it wasn’t noticed by anyone? All this questions in my mind tho lipsrsealed )


The driver still kept saying no, that he has to take him to the police station, all this while I was still mute lipsrsealed and my own concern was for him to tell me when we get to the park.

Then the woman started begging saying she has a son like him at home and wouldn’t pray for such a boy to go to jail, the man at the front was still quiet and dint even interfere, he was just looking at his watch. The driver finally said, since the woman has begged, then maybe we should go to a place(his mechanic’s place) to share the money huhh shocked shocked That’s when I knew it was real now, and not an illusion.


I couldn’t pick my calls, I was scared. angry The driver asked everyone in the car, and they all said they were comfortable with the sharing. They already started discussing who takes the larger part, as the driver kept driving. Then he asked why I haven’t said anything, I was like (oh, I’m not concentrating on their discussion, that I just want to get to the park cos I got people waiting for me) he said okay, that we were almost there (we already passed the place ooo, embarassed and I dint know) but that shey I’ll still follow them to have a share ba? I said No. He asked why? I dint reply.


It dawned on me, that we’ve gone too far for such a journey to be #70 Naira like my friends told me. I started crying like a baby inwardly, cry but I was as bold as a giant wink outwardly. I told the driver to stop, he asked why, I said I’m not going to the park again, that it’s too far, and I needed to get back home on time. He said he’s not going to stop that he’s suspecting I'm an SSS agent and I might arrest them for knowing their plans about sharing the money. (Even if I’m an SSS agent/police, how can I arrest all of you at same time *in my mind*).

I was calm, dint wanna raise my voice, since I already knew what they were capable of doing. I just kept saying I’m not ready to share any dollar, cry (I could hear my heart beat, but I was still bold)

All of a sudden the driver stopped, he was about asking me a question ("You mean sey you no wan go share this money"?) as I opened the door, and stepped out. He asked for his money and I gave him 100Naira, (I wasn't bothered about the change), he said No, it’s #250, shocked that we already passed Naomi park since. (Something I already knew)

I didn’t argue, I gave him another #100. Walked away, and the quiet devil at the front started talking and cursing his entire generation (not mine) the woman also joined. The driver called me all sort of names, and said “Na God save you” then zoomed off. (I said before nko, Only God could save me na)

I was on the lonely road, (still afraid, and looking right, left, front and back at same time undecided ) I crossed to the other lane, and a cab stopped, he didn’t even ask what I was doing there, he just said “You don enter their hand abi”? I was surprised.

He offered to help me back to the park and while we were going he was gisting me about those people, saying when you insist on sharing the money with them, they either take you to a quiet place and rob you of everything you’ve got/unclad you, or they use someone for money rituals. He said they usually do the latter. And that they make use of charm/juju. Hmmmm angry

I got to the Park safe, tho was still in shock, I thanked the driver and alighted. He didn’t even collect a dime. God bless him wherever he is. cool smiley

Oh, if I was greedy and decided to go with them to see/share their invisible dollars probably I won’t be here sharing this.

A friend told me, even if she feels the dollar is not there, she’d still go with them to be 100% sure. shocked Hmmmm okay

Nairalanders, One chance is real. It's a day I can't forget too easily. I kept wondering what would have happened to me if the driver didn't stop or if their juju had worked.

I hope someone learns from this. Be careful and vigilant. I learnt they've got new strategies they use to get at their victims, but I pray they don't succeed as much as they try to.

In all, I give thanks to God!!! cheesy smiley

Thanks for sharing your story. People abeg make una shine your eyes, some of those wayo stories dont even make sense. but think about this, on a very good day, how could someone with $100,000 have the cash undetected all the way from Kano why do you think if the story is true the boy will be willing to share lots of question but Thank GOD op was safe.

Hmmmm....


Happens everywhere....


Sometimes last year in the city of akure, while coming from work, i alighted at old garage along adeshida road to buy something when this handsome confused looking fellow came to me and asked for yemkems office.

He then started a useless tale of him having something to sell to yemkem that same day and that he came from ado.
It was at this point that someone else interrupted and called guy a fool for saying he is holding such an expensive material coz the material costs 500,000 and if those garage boys hear about it, the guy will be beaten and the product will be stolen from him.
What's my own with that.

The guy who interrupted our discussion now offered to take d handsome confused looking guy to yemkem's office and started begging me to join him and help the guy so we can escort him to the office together but damn.... After working for 12 hours, i just don't care about anybody again so i excused myself ignoring their plea.

The days later, i heard the story of a guy who went along with them when he was promised 50,000.

He was taken to a secluded spot, beaten mercilessly for looking good and not having money in his pocket and his shirt and shoe confiscated.....lolzzzz. Very lucky me.

Meanwhile, i av been approached for that same scam @ least ten times.

Don't know why always me

That the amount is too small or they rape her instead. After much begging they let her go and gave her 1k for taxi say she is bad market. Mind you this was drop O 'taxi' someone hid in the boot.

A friend was disposed of 250K, around Aya a couple of years ago too.

The guys in the back seat strangled him from behind, till he produced everything in his pocket and the money in his bag before dropping him off on the road.
