NIGHT SEASON

Guys!!! 1999, we were going to University of Nigeria in  Nsukka for our convocation ceremony from Abuja, in company of some of my friends and classmates; Nze, Ultimate, Onwa, Ogali, etc!!! We entered bus from Area 1 Garki Abuja to Dumez, near Suleja so we could enter cheaper “night bus” instead of boarding from Jabi Park!
We got tickets for Mercedes benz 1414 commuter vehicle, attachment! My Uncle, Zubby, bought me a pair of “Schooles” shoes, having made him proud by making a 2:1 in Political Science department! Inside the 1414 benz bus, there was ZERO comfort, especially “attachment”! you dared not sleep cos if u happened to rest your head on the shoulder of a trader that had “full seat” na slap or punch, depending on mindset!! We managed to get to Obollo Afor in the morning, where we would now take a bus into Nsukka. Getting to where we contributed money to stay for
the entire Convocation, I realised I lost one leg of the pair of my adored and priceless “schooles” shoes. It almost ruined my Convocation!!!
But today, here we are!!!
Do people still enter “night bus”?
Las las, this generation dey enjoy!!!
