A lady and her brother were just trying to move a mattress in a minibus across Lagos. A journey that should have taken less than 30 minutes reportedly turned into a frustrating series of demands for money.

At the first stop, an agbero allegedly demanded ₦50,000. Just 3–4 kilometres later, another group reportedly stopped them and demanded payment, with more stops following along the way.

Frustrated by what was happening, the lady began recording the experience, while the overlays on the video repeatedly flashed:

State of Excellence ❌
State of Agbero ✅

But the encounter reportedly became even more tense.

At one point, one of the agberos threatened to collect the lady’s phone and smash it on the ground after noticing that she was recording him. At another location, an agbero reportedly threatened to beat her brother when he questioned the demand for money and refused to comply.

At one point, she also encountered a policewoman who reportedly acknowledged that even police officers sometimes pay these agberos when transporting loads.

The video has since stirred strong reactions online, with many condemning the reported incidents and calling on relevant authorities to intervene. Critics argue that such demands are increasingly being seen as a normal part of moving goods around Lagos.

For many people, the frustration is simple: imagine working hard and saving money to buy a mattress, only to be stopped by people demanding payment before you can transport your own purchase to your home.

What should be an ordinary journey home can quickly become a series of unexpected payments, confrontations and, according to the account in the video, even threats.

Many online commenters are now asking whether this has become an accepted part of doing business on Lagos roads—and calling for the relevant authorities to take action.

Create your naija price rate.
With that you can easily charge based on number of video or per project.

For Instance, I have graphic designer that design unlimited designs monthly at a certain fee.

While another designer charged on per design.

We work with both of them perfectly.

Lastly, don't charge too high neither too low.

sandra2025:
Charge her N100k for a month.

budaatum:
You should start here by listing your costs for the tools you would use and state how long it would take you to produce the work, at least.

In fact, since this is a new thing for you, obvious because you don't quite know what you are doing, I'd suggest you go for a revenue share after costs subject to review after 3 months.

This person is not your client, but your partner. And you should be working together instead of charging.

Bros this your so called viral suggestion get as e be
The Abuja public government transportation system is non-existing and individuals decided to take full advantage of this by running an unmonitored system where your description fits
Bro, despite being the FCT, there are no laws, no checks for such barbaric behaviours by these golf cars
Boycotting them can only bring untold hardship to commuters but if the relevant agencies can take forcible actions against these drivers with strict price control, then can this uncivilised conduct can be curbed

TallNigerian:
I understand your grievance. But you cannot dictate to private car owners how to use their vehicles. Many of them took loans to buy the car, some are driving on hire purchase, others have huge responsibilities to take care of.

The ideal thing in this situation is for the government to fulfill its promises of releasing enough CNG powered buses to cater for mass transportation in Abuja.

Currently, demand exceed supply, and so, even if you preach from today till 2030, people will still cramp themselves in the small golf taxis. If I can squeeze myself for a 40-60 minute ride, why should I waste more time at the park after long hours of stressful work. I just want to get home, eat, rest and prepare for the next day. Not spending hours waiting for a comfortable car at the bus station.

I am not invalidating your concern, just saying the best way to solve this is to invest in mass transportation and alternative means of transport, you will see how these private commercial drivers will adjust accordingly. Sone things cannot just be forced.


Shalom!

Mr Eazi Trends as Viral Photos of His Grey Hair Spark Online Buzz

Nigerian music star and entrepreneur, Mr Eazi, is currently making headlines across social media — and this time, it’s not for a new song or business deal, but for his noticeably greying hair.

The 34-year-old singer began trending in early February 2026 after recent public appearances, including at the Africa Prosperity Dialogue 2026,
where fans spotted prominent silver-grey strands. Side-by-side comparison photos showing his earlier darker-haired look and his current greying style quickly went viral on X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and other platforms.

The Viral Look That Sparked Debate

Social media users wasted no time turning the photos into memes and hot takes. A wave of humorous comments linked the new look to his 2025 marriage to fashion influencer and actress Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola. Their wedding celebrations reportedly spanned luxurious locations including Monaco, Dubai, and Iceland.

Some playful reactions online read:

“Marriage never reach 2 years Mr Eazi hair don turn gray, fear women.”

“It’s not up to two years that Mr Eazi got married and grey hair is everywhere. Fear women.”

“The first man to grow grey hair after marriage.”

However, not everyone agrees with the “marriage stress” narrative.

Fans Offer More Realistic Explanations

Many supporters have pushed back, suggesting more grounded reasons for the singer’s new look. Some point out that greying hair can simply be genetic or part of natural ageing — especially at 34. Others believe he may have previously dyed his hair and has now decided to embrace a more natural appearance.

There are also those who credit his growing responsibilities. Beyond music, Mr Eazi is the founder of EmPawa Africa and has expanded into multiple investments and ventures across the continent. Supporters argue that building a business empire while maintaining a global music career could naturally come with stress and maturity.

As one fan put it, “Grey hair doesn’t mean old, it means experience. The hair is just adding extra character.”

From Dark to Distinguished

Older photos from his wedding era show the singer with noticeably darker hair, making the contrast with his recent public appearances even more striking — and meme-worthy.

Despite the online chatter, the conversation has largely remained lighthearted, with many praising his “distinguished” and mature look. Others have defended his privacy, urging critics not to overanalyze a natural change in appearance.

As of now, Mr Eazi has not publicly addressed the trending topic, allowing the internet to continue its classic Nigerian social media cruise.

Grey hair or not, the Afrobeats star remains focused on his music, philanthropy, and expanding business ventures — proving that a few silver strands are only adding to his brand of experience and style.

I won’t be surprised if all the falls are staged, that man act pass nollywood, he’s crafty, he knows he shouldn’t be dealing with Türkiye just to spite Trump.

Amen!.

But the incident proves that some pastors do not see as much visions as they claim they do.

The incident proves that it is wrong for pastors to claim that paying tithes prevents misfortunes. The pastors in that parish collect and pay tithes, yet the building got burnt.

The incident proves that it is wrong to shout, "What God cannot do does not exist".

Meanwhile, what is the suspected or confirmed cause of the fire outbreak?

He should start NOW. In Abuja, the closet interview date is October 2023, I’m certain it’s the same in Lagos.
If he waits even a second longer, he might not get an interview appointment this year.
