ok, i guess 'bushing' is a correction measure.
what signs does one experience, to be sure that the car needs 'bushing'?
Meanwhile, I do not have an idea of what 'bushing' is.

Thanks sir.

Judging from Nigerian mechanic's language, bushings refers to rubber mounts for engine, gearbox, propeller shafts, rubber components on suspensions, and rubber hangs for exhausts.

Bushing is not Nigerian mechanic's language. It is universally standard. You will even find it in manuals. And, you are right about the definition.

generally the wore out, this depends with your driving bad on how good is the road, just worn out because of wear and tire, how long they last depends also on quality

symptoms are very easy you start to hear knocking metal noise from the worn out bush
