EXPERIENCE IN LAG

By Omugbe prisca - April 28, 2018



My excitement knew no bounds when I finally got a Job in Lagos; I was eager to see for myself what Lagos really entailed because I have heard a lot about Lagos trends. Trust me it's been a really dramatic and exciting adventure and I will love to share them with you. Please don't forget to drop your views and comments about your own experiences in Lagos 😁😁 thanks.

1. When I first got to lag I was going to oshodi but all I could hear at begger was shod! Oshod! I had to ask someone if it was oshodi.

2. Some few days back I was at Ogba and wanted to bored a bus 🚌 to begger all I could hear was baga! baga! I had to ask someone standing by and he said baga was begger.

3. There was a day (I was still very new in lag) I mistakenly passed my bus stop, the conductor asked madam where you de go?  I mentioned the place and he was like madam we done pass na! To my greatest surprise everyone in the bus started to insult me ➕ the conductor. It was not a cool experience if you can relay.

4. In lag all your senses must be working together, if possible the cloths you are wearing too. You need to be alert and security conscious.

5. You must have change oh and if you don't, you have to be the one asking other passengers how much they are giving to the conductor. If not you will just be doing give always for condutors.

6. Danfo experience can't be left out.  I just see lots of drama every day. People that will enter the danfo from the boot when so many people are struggling to enter from the door and lots more. 

7. Danfo, keke, taxi 🚕, Ikeja buses 🚌 🚌 always running from LASMA. The scene is always funny.

I have had lots of experiences but I do love to hear your views and experiences too.

Do have a great weekend.

  1. All I could remember was on one of my numerous visit it happened in Ojuelegba. I took this bike on my way to Eco bank. I told him Eco bank. On getting to a spot after riding about some kilometers, he said I should pay him and take another bike because him fuel finish, but I never reach Eco bank. And he say bros "pay me make you enter another bike, I done try for you". I was confused.

    1. lol, that's so hilarious. Can u imagine and that's really annoying. I guess I had that experience this week too. I and a friend took a pep from Berger paint Oba Akan, Ikeja and told him we were going to the second bridge and he said yes. Only for us to get to first bridge and say he wasn't going again, that we should pay him .
