You're highly insensitive and callous...those two people you're asking for likes and shares for are one of the remote causes of such accidents.

The problem we have is thats travellers are willing to risk there life just to get to there destination.
I left Delta state 14th Oct 2018 with my in law husband from my step mum burial i was heading to lagos he was driving to Kogi state i stop at The bypass at benin took an Au car to lagos we notice the car was not moving well he stop at a filling station to check tire did wheel balancing and he also pump the tire, i notice thats the back tire was swollen, you wouldnt believe that the driver was willing to drive is with a bad swollen tire down to lagos immediately i told the driver to pack thats i cant risk my life like all passengers where looking at me. I say driver pack i no dey go lagos with this kind car. All passenger kept quite they where all willing to go lagos. I had to ring customer care to send a better car. After series of call one hour later they brought another car.
So bad thats they lost there life but my question is thats the driver would have stop for them to eat they wouldnt have continue the journey with him.

The company didn't also help matters, assuming they responded to the complain of one of the passenger, the incident would have been avoided, they should install speed limit device on all their vehicles to checkmate errant drivers.

The painful thing about such accidents is that no one will even refund you the money you spent on the ticket.

Ysg motors has been fraudulent since time immemorial. Those numbers and e-mail at the back of their bus ticket are just for decoration. Shi, the email doesn't even exist, if u doubt me try and send a mail grin

True. But why are Nigerians like that? Nigerians will largely prefer to live in hope than take the risk and stop the driver. In fact if someone does it, other passengers are more likely to pick up a quarrel with that person than the driver.

It reminds me of a flight I had on Air Peace to PH. A highly intoxicated passenger was allowed to get on the flight and sit near the emergency door. Mid-air he started misbehaving, trying to open the emergency door. Other passengers sat on their seat shouting “Jesus!” “Jesus!!” as if God hasn’t given them legs and hands to act. I got up from mine, went over to the unruly passenger and forced him back to my seat, which was behind his, and sat on his own near the emergency exit. He was so drunk that he didn’t feel the hot slaps I gave him.

Much later the hostesses and pilots came to thank me, telling me that they saw him with empty alcohol bottles before the flight. It’s against airline ethics that such passengers get on flights let alone sitting near emergency exits.

Anyway, I am not surprised with this The Young shall Grown incident. Nigerians will prefer to sit down and hope and pray than to act.

See them mentioning me as if what I said was wrong. If at all forcefully stopping a moving vehicle would cause an accident, am sure it wouldn't be very fatal,

Can you imagine. But the passengers too should always ensure they observe and know the true state of these drivers before allowing them drive them.
Our driver from Onitsha to Kaduna was cool until we reached Obollo- Afor nd dat was d end. Our saviour? Some members of the paramilitary noticed his driving from their vehicle nd put calls across d nearest check point ahead of us. #We blame ourselves alot his country#

Point of correction.
Dissolving the country doesn't solve any problem talk less of erasing accidents. How can anarchy be a solution?
Secondly I guess you're not a regular traveler, else you won't be showering praises on GIG motors so much. Maybe you didn't hear or see the most recent accident of GIG motor in which the driver slept off while the seat 1 passenger slept too.







Gboy101:
do people still enter Young shall grow buses? their accident rate is alarming this period. what are the federal road safety doing concerning young shall grow? and who will pay for the deaths of 9 people and those injured in this dastardly act.
someone needs to be held responsible.

... not until we dissolved this country things like this will keep repeating itself. all drivers should be sent for medical test, from drugs, alcohol and fitness. until then we will keep hearing things like this.

god is good is still the best transport service in Nigeria. I am not doing ads for them. but its the fact. why people are boycotting them is that they are expensive to travel.

lastly. the Nigeria police have a long way to go. the worst police in the world under idris abubarker a Muslim extremist is a shame and need to be used as study in university worldwide of a failed police force.

There are a few instances where one can take control of the bus. 1. When the driver slows down for a checkpoint. 2. When they stop to use a restroom. 3. When they stop to eat.

But I bet you, most Nigerians will ignore those instances and keep on hoping and praying they get to their stop.

Re: Young Shall Grow Bus Driver Drank & Smoked Before Accident – Survivor Recounts by Godyke(m): 3:15pm On Oct 25, 2018
I do not agree with the passenger that claimed he spoke with the customer care unit of the company even if the number on the receipt went through. The receiver of the call was definitely not a customer care agent but Someone who happened to be to be near the phone and heard it ring and decided to pick it. You don't expect customer care line to be 24 hours in this part of the world. Night trips are illegal that is why the federal road safety dont work at that time. It is both at the passenger's and the company's risk. I am not sure if any insurance company would accept to insure night journey except if it is a registered express parcel/cargo delivery service

These Ember months if you're traveling please be very careful, most of these transport owners are ritualists , the driver would never be punished he has accomplished his job, take my words or leave them, The young shall motors will never do anything to this lunatic driver, it all started from ignoring the second phone call, next the phone was switched off, because the driver was doing their bargain . Many of the drivers are from his Nneni town in Anambra state. Be warned .

So pitiful, had I been a passenger, we would gang up, when he slows down, push him out of the car, I would rather drive the bus than risk my life, He would meet us in Lagos biko. Now that some are Dead, the deed is done already, the devil that pushed him had left him finally. Young shall grow, me I no dey first fancy them.

How is that possible, when you don't get to see the drivers until the bus is full.
