While we are still celebrating how Molues are getting phased out - behold, Molue reinvent itself in the form of  these "BRT" buses.

Well, in actual sense, they are not BRT buses. They were, at a time. But that was before the Lagos state government outlawed their operations on the BRT corridors. This set of buses were part of the LAGBUS-NURTW franchise.

These buses tell a sad tale of neglect. Their conditions show an evident lack of maintenance services. They represent a total contrast from their once luxurious state.

Today, just like Molues, these buses – during trips – are typically overcrowded with passengers.  They breakdown during trips. Many of them have no brake or rear lights. They have chassis that are badly in need of bodywork and spray job – even wash job.

The interior are also no better. For instance, the internal walls are grimy and coated in dark colours that are in fact accumulated dirt that has caked over time. It is very doubtful if these buses are ever washed.

The interior also feature tattered upholsteries, dirty handgrips, littered floors, etc.

Their bus conductors – usually 2 or 3 in number - are very discourteous and combative. They typically seen hanging by the door side screaming out for passengers.

Today, the only advantage that these set of commercial buses have over Molues is the absence of itinerant preachers, hawkers, mobile pharmacists, etc.

They just can't seem to get things right, so why even bother with them?

This is how public bus is supposed to look if we are not so used to suffering and smiling in Nigeria

Sowore 2019

Nigeria n maintenance culture are sworn enemies

I'm almost certain most commercial buses evej in advanced nations have a shelf life.

BIAFRONIGERIAN:

Tunechiami:

Who ask you?

When they told Ambode that he has no business procuring these buses he thought he was wiser than the people that advised him.

Ok
