Lagos Yellow buses and their Menace
The picture of the bus above shows an example of the yellow buses that ply Lagos metropolis. The sight is not only not befitting but badly constructed for human safety. Unfortunately, a bar of iron was constructed across the windows and one wonders what happens in an emergency. The interior speaks volumes about safety as iron bars and wood were everywhere in the name of seat for human beings to use for a journey that sometimes can last three (3) to four (4) hours. The red mark is pointing at the iron bar that was placed across the window. It has become normal that passengers stand at the entrance to these buses- This is abnormal even though it is seen and accepted as normal in Lagos metropolis. If not normal why do these buses go free everyday without law enforcement challenging this act and many more traffic laws that are violated everyday.
