I boarded a bus from Ajah to Oshodi and noticed an unsettling driving behavior from the driver. I suspected he was sleeping, I recorded a video and caught him dozing off while driving on the 3rd Mainland Bridge. Concerned for my safety, I chose to end my journey at Oworo, prioritizing my well-being to avoid potential risks.

So many people are overworking themselves to put food on the table.


Some people think driving is easy, especially in this Nigeria that 85% of the route to your destination is bad.

You did the right thing by highlighting, but you could have alerted other agers and urge the driver to park and walk around.

Someone could volunteered to play very loud music by his side or engage him on politics or football. 😁


To survive as a man is not an easy thing.

”walk around”?
Shey na church?
E be like say you be church usher 😀
Instead of a “walk around”, why can’t the driver be allowed to have a nap?

I can't forget the one time I was on a bus traveling when the driver kept dozing on and off and would argue he wasn't.

Laslas, we all including the bus ended up in someone's bedroom.

It was a scary and hilarious experience

Honestly to make ends meet is just by the grace of God . Men are really really trying ... God bless all legit hustlers out there . .alot of driver sleeps due to lack of rest ....have encountered some and that's why it's good if travelling you engage your driver in conversation even if it's politics ... It keeps them awake and lively,I normally do that when I sir in front

Reason why it's important to stay awake especially when you travel long distances...Most drivers have little time for rest

Why are these drivers like this? But the enger should have alerted others to avoid stories that touch. You should have made noise on it to other motorists

Some engers at front seat could be boring because a little conversation on any trending topic would have kept him awake..I have seen where enger at front seat will be sleeping.Sleep can be contagious in such scenario.
