THE DANFO DRIVER I ALMOST KILLED
First and foremost, I need you to understand that you don't need to hold life too serious, you've just gotta be calm in all situation. But, that apart sha, to tell you the truth; I was the one the danfo driver almost killed, not the other way roundπ€π€£π€£π. Now to the story gangan.
I finally decided to to go home to my parents in Lagos, after many months abi almost a year gan sef of running away from home. Not exactly as stated tho (or should I say not literally as you might understand), but because of the fact that I rarely go home since I've resumed OAU as a student almost 5years ago (whey! Omo e don tey oπ€£π€π). It has gotten so serious that some of my friends thought I have committed either one of three sins;
• I have committed a crime at home and police is looking for me (gentle boys like us no dey fight though ππ)• I have impregnated a lady I'm not interested in marrying (me that I'm even still a virgin ππ€π₯°)• lastly, maybe I've sold my father's house (well, I no be prodigal son oπ€£π€£π€£, although, I almost leased my roomππ)
But, to cut the story short sha, I went home to prove haters wrong and to see my beautiful parentsππ₯°.
One of the issue about traveling to Lagos for me is that I don't go anywhere, no matter the number of days I ended up spending in Lagos, I stay indoor for the whole of it. Reasons are;
1. I don't want unnecessary spendings (since I already have everything I needed at home)2. To avoid drama (all those "long time no see" kind of drama)3. And the most important one; Danfo wahala (how those prices change within minutes, and those annoying hold up... Abeg abeg!)
So, I avoided all those wahala till the last day o was going. Remember how they use to say, "head that will chop knock will always find itself to chop am". That was my case o. To even lessen the case of holdup I decided to travel back to ife on a Sunday, since we all believe the road will be free on Sunday (omo!na lie o). The danfo I took from igando to iyana ipaja showed me pepper....
First thing was that we haven't gone far before we encountered this devil of a hold up, na there our problem start. Remember I said danfo drivers don't care about anything else but themselves, and clearing what might be in their way is almost the easiest thing they do (that's the superpower the devil gave themππ€£π). Immediately the driver saw the holdup he immediately maneuver to the alternate lane (well, e no kuku consign me nitemi, my own was just to get to iyana ipaja). But, where he went wrong was trying to take a short cut through a community he was not familiar with, that was what first took almost 45 minutes of our time driving around.
One of the characteristics of a danfo driver is that, no matter what they do, and no matter how loud you shout, they will almost never answer you. After we have all lost our chill, the foolish driver decided to ask the road from someone and as we thought we are finally free from the endless turning around, we barely moved a minute before the bus suddenly stopped. See ehn, Lagos drivers have that evil ability to immediately know when their vehicle have a major fault or small, if it's small, they'll get down and tell you all to get down too that they want to quickly repair it, but you see once they get down and they say "I'm coming"... Forget am, na there una go sleep. This guy just got down, called his conductor whisper something and said "e jo mo mbo" (please, I'm coming). I swear the guy use am for us big time.
Ladies and gentlemen, I waka I nearly die. I never even recover sef. Brother kini, God go punish youπππ
