Big boys convoy on Nnewi -Nnobi road in 1981. Big ballers in town...😁😁

Everything na time..everyone there go dey hustle to touch those cars.

When Niigeria was good.

BEFORE kidnappings, Fulani herdsmen, ESN, UGM, Buhari 2.0, IPOB, MNK, Boko Haram,
Simon Ekpa, Bola Tinubu, sit-at-home, Japa, etc. Add yours

When common sense was still a bit common

Help me fill the other characters

That's an ambulance at the front. Possibly a burial procession. Nothing really spectacular just a normal convoy. Don't let anybody pressure you; don't pressure yourself!

When Nigeria was good with an "untarred road"
