A man has shared a funny video of a bus he spotted in Lagos, and the clip is currently trending and attracting various reactions online.

Someone reacting to the video said it “perfectly captures the city’s unique brand of everyday absurdity.” A yellow commercial bus — the familiar danfo type — is driving along the road with its front completely smashed in, body twisted, and panels hanging loose. Windows are gone or wide open. Passengers are still seated inside, some looking out as if this is just another morning commute.

The person filming overlays the clip with “Lagos wahala” and laughing emojis, while the original poster simply writes, “God abeg ooo.” The combination of horror and dark humour is instantaneous. You almost laugh before the unease sets in.

What makes it worse is not just the state of the vehicle, but the fact that people boarded it. In a place where daily survival often feels like a negotiation with risk, many still climb into whatever moves. Drivers and owners keep these wrecks on the road because the system rarely stops them. Enforcement looks the other way more often than it intervenes.

Clips like this surface regularly, spark the same round of comments about how little life is valued, and then disappear until the next one appears. The bus keeps rolling. The passengers keep riding. And Lagos continues exactly as it is.

Hehehe.... It's funny abi?
Guess what, at the slightest mishap, not only will the driver and occupants perish, but they will also use their foolery to ruin another driver/ pedestrian.

Absurdities are thus called because they're not normal. This can't be called "normal Lagos" - Where's FRSC? Where's LASTMA?

Imagine the risk he’s putting himself and others in
When Nigeria becomes a working country so many people go run

Were is road safety were is vio were is the police why will somebody be driving such scrab ortom come and see what scrab is and not when you buy a brand new car den after 4 years you say it is scrab that why should gov alia collect it from you

Jagaban Army structure bandits

I admire the driver's courage to never give up.


I'm sure he's planning to restore the bus to the normal structure as soon as possible.


He's aware of the risks and dangers of using the bus like that but I think he's got no choice.


He's got mouths to feed!

Look at the risk he's putting commuters through all for the sake of money. No one is talking or outraged.
When VIO descends on him now, all sorts and manner of cretins will come out with phone recording and start demonizing VIO.

He may refuse arrest now and people will support him...

He's got mouth to feed is not an excuse to risk his life with this death trap he call a vehicle. Those mouth he's got to feed will live their life if this shit unalive him. Let's stop normalizing what is wrong.

HOW will our country ever work if we are not putting in the deliberate EFFORTS towards the goal?

He’ll drive past VIO FRSC LASTMA and even the Police and they won’t even flag him.

Let a 2026 Honda Accord drive past them and see them jump on the road like lost goats asking for all sorts of certificates.

What show of shame is this in the supposedly modern, world class Lagos that Tinubu alone built with 100 times growth in budget to N4.2 trillion in 27 years?

If Lagosians are truly smart, why are they allowing the master strategist of a-looter propaganda politics steal their trillions yearly?

A 45-year-old resident and father of three, Mr.Fatai Lamide told PUNCH HealthWise that no building in the community has toilet facilities.

The Oyo State-born mechanic said, “We don’t have toilet in this area, including our compound. This canal that you see serves as toilet to all of us living in this area. We defecate inside nylon and throw it inside the canal.

“For people that don’t want to use nylon, they have a special bucket that they use after which they pour it inside the canal too.

Lagos, 3 other African cities rank among world’s least liveable in 2026

July 15, 2026

Four African cities have been ranked among the world’s 10 least liveable urban centres in the Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) Global Liveability Index 2026, reflecting the continued impact of insecurity, pressure on public services, infrastructure gaps and governance challenges.

The annual index assessed 173 cities across five indicators: stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure. Each city received a score out of 100 based on how well it performs across these areas.

This year’s rankings placed Harare (Zimbabwe), Lagos (Nigeria), Algiers (Algeria) and Tripoli (Libya) in the global bottom 10, alongside cities affected by conflict, economic challenges and weak infrastructure.

Were the passengers forced in at gunpoint? They entered the vehicle(death trap) with their eyes wide opened.

Apparently, that could not have been the only vehicle plying the route(that's the only reason I could have entered such and even at that, na me and the driver go dey drive am as Monitoring and Evaluation concern- No careless moves).

how is this death trap road worthy??

These are up National, that police, FRSC don't touch, LASTMA will even collect owo lastma. Government is not concerned with how people commute.

There is nothing funny about this.
This shouldn't be allowed.
Simple and short.
