Millions of Lagosians use Danfo buses to move around every single day.

That’s millions of personalities, temperaments, attitudes, etc.

Here, we narrow these millions of people to four groups:

1. The Sleeper: This is a special kind of passenger. They pass out the moment the bus begins to move and wake up at their bus stop, or some times after their bus stop. A lot of the time, they fall asleep and their heads end up on a co-passenger’s shoulder.
2. The Preacher. When you hear ‘Praise the Lord’, you know they are on board. Sometimes you’re lucky to get a preacher who doesn’t have books to sell or who is not threatening people who don’t say amen with Hell fire.
3. The Speedometer. “Driver where are you rushing too?” “Driver you are driving human beings and not animals” “Why is this unfortunate driver slow like this?”
4. The Observer. This person is reading a book, or pressing their phone, or listening to music. The only time you hear them speak is when they say ‘O wa o’ at their bus stops. These are the passengers we’ve come to love, unless the bus is really tight and they refuse to shift properly so others can sit. 

What type of passenger are you?
