Going home around 8:30pm yesterday from Bolade Oshodi heading towards Iyana-Ipaja. I was met with a heavy flow of traffic which greeted me with a nostalgic feeling. Inside the bus, I was seated at the last row edged to the window side of the bus and two seats further away from me was a woman. I guess she was coming from office around that time she was seated by the window side. She was nicely treating herself to music play from her phone with an earpiece; which remained busy on her two ears, rested on her laps was her big phone. I don't know what product or type but I know it must be a big phone. On getting to Ikeja Along; there was this guy who was walking side by side with our bus and one could have easily mistaken him to be a hawker hawking his wares but he has nothing with you him to suggest him as such. So nobody could have cared or suspected his daredevil motive.

Before someone could say Jack Robinson he reached out his hand from the corner of the window and reached for the phone of this woman. The woman could not believe what happened within the spate of those seconds because it really happened very fast. Not many inside the bus caught a glimpse of the incidence only few did. To make matters worst; nobody could have given the thief a hot chase because the vehicles have started moving from that moment and even moreso the bus has no conductor.

If you are inside a bus and stuck in a traffic avoid holding your phones or displaying your gadget especially if you are sitting by the window side.

That's why they say always shine your eyes for Lagos. Sorry she lost her possession to a thief but core lagosians know they have to be careful with public displays of gadgets in some areas.

TRUE, have seen that happen so many times
