This one is Still Better, go to Ibadan and You will know what rickety bus means. Not all Ibadan buses sha o.

come to Benin City, you would see worse situations. Their own no even be damfo. A 9sitter bus, usually so dirty and come to talk of the noise from the engine and that from the bad speakers they attach to the bus. Really sounds like hell inside hell. But what do we do na?

Similar thing with the rickety bus drivers in Ibadan. You can't make or receive calls in those buses. Just Don't know if We have vio nd other related agencies in Nigeria.

They r still better than d ones in Ibadan. I boarded one while coming back from church. Alas, just bfore I got to my bus-stop, d keg n hose dat d driver used to pass fuel caught fire right beside me. I don't know when I jumped from d wreakage while it was in motion, I almost fell face flat on d road, so many ladies fell flat on d road while trying to escape before d driver could stop d wretched bus. We eventually put out d fire with sand. I than my God till date for sparing me in dat incident.

It was going to be a very good workers day holiday but due to the nature of my work i still had to go to work today. As i got to the park, i rushed into the front seat of the next bus on the queue because i hate being packed in the back seat like sardines (even sardines have more spaces now since they started putting only 2 pieces). When the bus got filled, the driver collected his money and jumped into the driver's seat and that was when the first shock hit me.
If you look closely to the picture below, inside the circled line, you will see a something looking like a dirty chewing stick, well dear readers, that's the car key.
The driver stuck the key to the ignition twisted it like 6 times and the car came alive.


The next thing that caught my eye was the gear stick. The stick was so old and worn out that after shifting the gear, the stick always falls on my seat as support as seen in the picture below




How can i leave out the power steering


As the journey from NAHCO park to Ikeja medical road continued, i noticed that some brownish dust fell on me at every gallop, that was when i looked up to the roof of the car and behold it was bare. Stock to the bare metallic roof was an umbrella. (see image below) What the f**k is an umbrella doing in the roof? Does the roof leak while it rained? Immediately i imagined myself holding up an umbrella inside a car to shield myself from rain. It was so hilarious. I didn't know when i cracked a mild chuckle, attracting the attention of the driver and the guy beside me.


I decided to look round the car, that was when i noticed the garbage i was in. The car has lost all its insulations, no stereo or air vents, dusty rags line the windshield. The bus was not all that bad, atleast it could still move (at snail speed) though it shook like a vibrator and one more thing; the side mirrors were still intact!!! Yeah!!! he wins!!!






I came out of the car feeling dirty and shook up coupled with the fact that I'm going to work on a public holiday.
That is Naija for you; rugged as ever! The one I usually find funny most is, when you complain to the driver about something that is wrong with the car or bus, the driver be like, " na dis morning e spoil, when I drop passengers now, I dey go mechanic place!" And that's the song they will sing until the vehicle no gree move again! Lol
