Theres nothing worth celebrating here because this is a disaster waiting to happen as he can ram into a whole building, destroying lives and properties.

Whoever gave him the keys to this trailer should be arrested and charged for recklessness.

See the boy with his peers in the front seat, if they crash into another vehicle now we'll be saying something else. We need to be responsible for ourselves and others. What stopped the guy that took that video and other adults there from grounding that vehicle and telling the boys to call who sent them on errand, after calling the police?

See as the small boy's hand don strong for gear. Children that are meant to be in school for God sake. If they ask me what they'll become I'd say smugglers because when this guy is 24 years, if he is like the average Nigerian (we inherit mentality) he would have amassed enough road side and crime related experiences to have become a proficient smuggler. At his age he is already driving through bush and mud with a truck.

I get that life deals us bad cards but you can't tell me the boy bought the truck and I doubt he stole it so that means someone gave it to him. Now, I'm not against hustle at any age but when an adult (in this case the owner of the truck) sees it as okay to place other people's lives and properties in the hands of a group of kids I see it as irresponsible because he is endangering others. If the video was of the kids in the farm volunteering to make a living, then it's acceptable (but not okay cos in a country with a working government, they are meant to be in school) because there is no danger to other people. There are various other ways to hustle too without putting others at risk of your mistake. If you cite the grown insecurity in the country as reason for the boys being unable to go to farm, ask yourself: is it on the road that they are safe? From policemen? From kidnappers?


There is this saying that a doctor's mistake costs a life, a pilot's mistake costs more lives, an engineer's mistake costs even more lives.

A driver's mistake can cost from 0-a alot of lives.

People go to school for this professions

Putting this decision in the hands of a 13 year old boy is what I don't condone.
Ok.

A small kid like that has the presence of mind to take on such a rush venture. Rather than appreciate it. They are busy castigating.

it has unless Nigeria has become a banana republic. In the US, that truck will be grounded asap. The girl that set fire to ebeano committed arson which is a jailable offence but she can't even be detained a second more after grilling her because of her age.
