Semiu! Though there are times I tend to miss the madness of the Lagos conductor and the drama that acts out in those buses but certainly wouldn't want to live there permanently again, born and raised there is enough to last a lifetime!

MuttleyLaff:
Nah only you all that a la Oliver Twist thing going on in there your siggy, lmso.

Here all along, I used to think you were Chinese associated with Naija

Magnoliaa:
Iiii do not quite get what you're saying, but, yes anyhow. Those are all my label plaques.

Magnoliaa:
If I could choose my race, I would have been an African-American. With my personality and all intact oh. And being Nigerian, surprisingly, would have been my second option still.

Ofemmanu1:

It depends on the sides of Yaba, some areas are very cool in there while some are very bad.

If money is not the problem, Ikeja GRA is the best place bro.

MuttleyLaff:
My guy, leave bweast matter for bacca jor, abeggy, but bweast too, hin dey sweet dey do blow blow or watch as hin dey do jangrover whenever madam dey busy doing on top, but sha hin no dey same league as bacca in my book.

Ofemmanu1:

I really can't wait bro.
Now I'm stuck with my phone typing on NL all cos I'm in a sleepy slow Kogi state.
I'm on night shift at 7pm, workplace is 200m away and will come home next morning, sleep, eat, press phone again...
The money piling with nothing to spend it on, my car is just sitting redundant and the less desirable Ebira, igala and bassa gals full here.
Imagine a staff of the company telling me to dash him my car for 500k since it's just under tarpaulin?!
my car?!! ha....
Why won't I wanna return to my Lagos where my time and money will be worth it?!

Where I will be in a better place/situation instead of boredom and NL?!

I hate Lagos for d bad road, traffic jams, conductors & agberos bad conducts,dirty environment & hot- tempered people I will not stay their even for free house & 6 figures.

uboma:


Your life span will be longer while in Kogi state than in Lagos state.

Look around, there is always something to spend the money on. It may not be as it is in Lagos state but you cannot rule out social life in Lokoja. Except for the covid-19 restriction and shiiii.

How dare you describe Ebira ladies as less desirable? Put on your binoculars, you will find desirable ladies over there.

Ain't you happy that your car isn't on the ever busy Lagos roads with the kekes and Okada denting it left right and centre? The rains will be here soon, you should be happy that your car will not go through flooded areas in Lagos state. That extra cost you would have spent on maintenance of your car if you were to be in Lagos, keep saving it. It will come handy someday.

More than fair. Whatever is at your disposal, use. If you have it, flaunt it, use it. All is fair, in love and war. That was a war zone situation she described there and her mission was accomplished. Job done enough to get her home on time and/or schedule

Na place like Lagos mhen... Benin is another mad place. I'm a student of Uniben and I can say it is Lagos' twin brother when you compare the traffic,night life, and the madness people showcase here and there...infact unlike people that move from Lagos and say they miss it due to the easy going life if their new environment, can't say the same for Benin...dem no well for here

Magnoliaa:


No problem. I'll still use how I like and with what it means to me, lol.

Ishilove:
The traffic alone is enough to make anyone hot tempered. I used to be very gentle, shy and reserved. Now I am hot tempered and grouchy.

replete:

Am thinking you just want to catch cruise here...u know u might not be able to afford that car if you were in Lagos and even if you cud u may have no savings.
I always knew this after growing up in Lagos if I have to work for the government there will be no point staying in cities like Lagos or port Harcourt. My colleague that we got the fg job together influenced his posting to Lagos after few years he his still living in a room in bariga without a car and no savings while I live comfortably in a 3 bedroom ensuite with study, laundry and store here in Jos plus a 2011 Camry sports to enjoy cool life plus am married with a kid and he is not married and come to think we earn the same salary.

Ishilove:

You're not Nigerian?

MuttleyLaff:
At least, leave some superlatives behind for others to describe themselves with too, nah, lmso. For be a self confessed Marlian, I like and love you more for that, lmso.

Lmao. If not for space sef, e get more wey I go still like add. Are you a Marlian, toooo? Wait, how do we great each other, if you are one? I'm all kind of unaware about the club and all.

The best race to be is Naija. Most AA are defo originally from somewhere on the West Africa coast, if not Naija sef

First of all, the conductor had no right to bud into the call - it was rude and not unlike conductors especially when they see you well dressed or looking like you would not like to be embarrassed.

Majority, if not all of Lagos conductors are unreasonable. The system by which they determine fares and routes are mysterious, one cannot or should not attempt to reason it out, rather one must think like them (in terms of their greed) and try to outwit them. Back then coming from Ikeja under bridge to Maryland, they'd charge a flat NGN100 regardless of your dropping at police college, Customs, Country Club or Sheraton...initially I would argue and argue, eventually, they would drive past unless I paid them the full amount or I would walk back, and since a diva is not meant to be unladylike I soon learned a trick. I would sit close to the door as possible holding the reasonable amount (less the illegal 100 naira since I was not going that far), look out for anyone dropping off/being picked up at my desired stop, soon as they were about getting off or hopping in, I would alight same time as the entrant or the exiter, handing the Conductor my correct/justifiable(I am not going that far) fare at the same time. Of course, it didn't always work but, it did most of the time...why, 'cause, my rationale then was, the simple fact that my exit, opened an empty seat that could still be filled along the way meaning more could be made on my vacant seat before Maryland.

Beyond that though, Nigerians can be so aloof and uncaring...had the op gotten some kind of corroboration, support, the unfairness of the fare, may have caused a rethink...many injustices in Lagos even ENDSARS are because no one gets enough support when they speak up... When you cannot mobilize collectively against day to day 'small small' oppressors, how then will you overcome oppressors in Government or uniform?

This Facebook user, Jude Idada managed to beautifully capture one of such instances of the madness of The Gidi.

"A middle aged man wearing a dark suit, a sweat stained formerly white shirt and an ironed-until-it-shines black tie entered the bus."

I hope you enjoy reading this narration as much as I did.

sugarsoul:

Some would disagree with the bolded. But yeah, Africa is where AA roots are, so I have the base identity, even if it's only that...

MuttleyLaff:
Talk is cheap, lmso. Prove it, you're bonafide and kofam true born Naija

I dont have to be Marlian , in order to respect grace gift and/or talent

Nothing beats the Naija spirit. Naija, in all its ramifications, are a blessed lot. Ọmọ dont set me off talking how the best race to be is Naija, lmso
