Hi Stella,
We are the ones killing ourselves in this part of the world, this isn't police brutality, fellow Nigerians beating and maiming themselves..... am so angry and shaking as I type this. The Yaba bus I just took from Onikan just got ATTACKED by Ericsson staff on third mainland bridge!
The driver of the bus I was in was on his lane when this coaster staff bus belonging to Ericsson came from the right and entered his front ,the driver stopped because the driver of this staff bus was trying to play smart he kept moving in and scratched his bus in the process.
He came down and started harassing the driver and the staff of Ericsson decided to come down and beat our driver silly, broke his head and he started bleeding because of their driver's irresponsibility!
I Have attached pictures ,the guy in blue's name is Mudasiru Ilesanmi that's the only name I could get, the driver of the staff bus is the one in white pressing his phone.
They have called for back-up from their office and even had the effrontery to offer the driver with broken head N10k to go treat himself because we are delaying them with our noise.
Please you need to help publish this so Ericsson management will know the kind of staff they employed.
Thanks
Haba.....this is really wicked,,,y inflict so much injury on someone else....some people are just plain wicked sha...
ReplyDelete10KKKKK???
DeleteLMFAOOOOOOOOO. Read The funniest valentine day story here
Ha! See gobe.
ReplyDeleteFrustrated people everywhere looking for who to vent their anger on. Even the so called gentlemen on suit take to street fights at the slightest provocation. SMH
The frustration in lagos is EPIC!!!! I usually forget my Christianity when im driving in lagos. You go insult okada, keke, bus driver, bullion van drivers etc. Lagos is not for the faint-hearted
DeleteEh. What amuses me is when stuffs like this happen and everyone is pressing their phones. Pls who are they calling?? Lolll. Forming 'u will smell yourself today". Na lie...3hours after dem go still dey press fone nobody go come, nothing go happen. frustration at its peak. Easy does it brethren
DeleteLol@pressing pone,itts d 'do u know who I am 'syndrome dey worry them.lol
DeleteAnd such pple know nobody jare,person wey go f##k u up will make his contact before even dropping from the vehicle and won't need to fight or break person head.
Ericsson welldone for employing all touts and agberos in lagos!
What is 10k?will that even be enough to fuel his bus and transport himself down to the clinic. Humm!
ReplyDeleteVery sad, they employed touts this is common occurrence in Lagos and other states. You go out not knowing who is going to attack you or fight you even okada man is threat. We Nigerians are too harsh and anger is our no 1 problem maybe is due to harsh economic situation,we are not gentle at all. Most of this issues can be avoided,psychological 70% Nigerians are mentally unbalanced if a test is consulted a lot of us will fall it our leaders are even worst because if their brain are ok they won't steal us dry while citizens fight themselves.
ReplyDeletePls police should arrest him jor
ReplyDeleteArrest who?
DeleteNa that 10k d olopa dem eye go dey
Why don't some people carry their angry miserable lives to the government...majority of people living in this country are sadist and mad...looking for trouble where there is none...always ready to fight and shed blood...tufiakwa...sorry to say but yoruba people are guilty of this...
ReplyDeleteSomeone once said most Nigerians are mad anyway. I'm begining to believe it. Problem with the Third Mainland Bridge is that it doesn't have a service lane for emergency vehicles for fire trucks and police. When there is a traffic accident or a vehicler breakdown, everyone suffers. I spent three hours on that bridge for that reason and it wasn't funny. I can see people dieing on that bridge because of lack of a service lane. They should convert part of the right lane to a service lane to bring sanity to that bridge. They should also have a permanent police presence on different sections of the service lane to keep traffic moving.
ReplyDeleteThe story is one sided I hate all danfo drivers more of them need their heads broken
ReplyDeleteVery stupid comment I must say, don't forget, a driver is someone's son, father, brother, husband and friend. Yes they tend to misbehave. That doesn't mean they all should be treated in such manner.
DeleteU just made my day. Danfo drivers are very frustrating. Serves him right!!
DeleteDanfo drivers are animals jare
DeleteAin't buying this story mehn
Poster,is d bus driver ur u know"
I think people should start beating this bus drivers anyhow jare
They even tried sef cos if na me I no give am shishi
Nonsense
Msewwwww
Maybe the guy smoke dry shit.
ReplyDelete#seegobe
ReplyDeleteThe driver should contact a lawyer, and collect atleast 50million from the company. Na so God dey butter person bread ooh. Make the driver go treat himself for government hospital and collect reciepts and doctors report. (0813166800)
ReplyDeleteLol OLE!
DeleteAs U come put ur number here now, Wetin make we carry am do nah? U be lawyer? Hian....
Delete"Breaks Drivers Head"?
ReplyDeleteLooks like the driver has a cut, that head is not broken
Come to think of it, how many right thinking person/driver struggle with Danfo drivers, unless your car was made in the 80s.
Nobody will be driving a very neat bus like that and will not give way to Danfo driver, otherwise the bus will have a colour-mix and at worse, you will be 'appeased' by him postrating.
The story looks one sided, and I guess the Danfo driver thought all the people in the bus are white collar people, obviously he proved himself wrong.
Unfortunately in this country, a lot of people are angry with others who have better cars, buses etc and pitch themselves against them at any opportunity.
Well, we just heard from one side. Most of these danfo drivers at times, once you want to enter their lane, they too would want to increase their speed to prevent you from entering knowing that if there is an impact, you will be at the receiving end of vehicle damage cos of the kind of vehicles they drive. I don't support beating the driver and breaking his head, but they too get their own for body. As we speak, nothing fit happen cos if the driver don collect the money, all have been settled.
ReplyDeleteWetin wan happen before
DeleteAbeggi!
Na today?
Useless molue,danfo,keke,OKada e remain to panel beat those
lawna drivers
Awon smellos
Hehehe!
ReplyDeleteDis poster get mind oo

Ezewayin u sound like a lady in the bus that was begging onbehalf of her other staff when the matter escalated. Like seriously she was on d top of her voice b4 then. My dear, if u are a staff of ericson or u in anyway behalf in such manner in public? Ur doom is near and i weep for u... Brahhhh!!! #ify
DeleteMe inside danfo? God forbid! Aunty danfo driver girlfriend ,this is ezewanyi d billionaire's wife

Ur doom is already here,cheap girl
I thought u said u boarded d bus from onikan or where and u never still reach d place u dey go
That driver be like person wey gather prick and I sure say that is d reason u dey follow am like fly
Bwahahahaha
Dear poster/reporter, thanks for bringing this up but sorry at your ignorance. The fact that Ericsson is a big company doesn't mean every hungry man can feed on it's largesse.
ReplyDeleteThis happens everyday on this bridge where commercial bus drivers try to take advantage of private vehicles and staff buses and sometimes end up being beaten up.
The fact that it's an Ericsson staff bus doesn't mean you can get rich overnight from this ur hustle.
Sadly most of the people that ride on the such staff buses are Contractors/outsourced especially the drivers. You can't make any money from this. All you can get is helping the poor Muda boi or whatever loose his job. I hope you'll be able to feed his dependents afterwards
Spot on
DeleteBlah!! Blah!! Blah!!! What were they thinking when they started acting brutal. I remb d dude siting beside d driver got a slap from the ericson guys too cos he was tryn 2 explain to them about been wrong. He rushed out of the bus and ran for his life sayn" u'l be sacked by tomorrow" thank God he ran b4 they get him burnt up. My dear, the deed has been done. Everone has learnt. Am still proud of the Nigeria police force for their action yesterday. #ify
DeleteThem no slap d guy well
DeleteSee this idiot
Police is on ur side now cos Ericsson ogas never come
D case go soon turn
Iwayo danfo driver
At first u just a passenger oooooo
But now nko?
I knew u were not genuine yesterday
U dey find support for your man friend msewwwwwe
My dear these office drivers na wah. The worst are those driving oyinbo and semi oyinbo(lebaneese and asians). They drive as if they just won the lottery and do all sorts of stunts. meanwhile these people they are driving use bus and trek back home. Anyway ericcson na very rural company thats why they employ such staff that fight in public. And see the small money 10k.
ReplyDeleteDat Ericsson staff must be frustrated. May be dem no pay am salary for January.
ReplyDeletehe is lucky he was just given an injury.....i would have killed him...these bus drivers are animals....when they start misbehaving they dont reason....some drive in a way that puts your own life at risk and am sure that is what happened here.......dont start judging till you know what he did.....
ReplyDeleteClapping
DeleteUr head dey there ojare
There is No Gentle Man in Lagos.... Lagos nawa oooo
ReplyDelete@i_ChoPtas_Not
Hian!
DeleteBut salawa abeni say she be gentle lady
Loooool
I know someone that was in the bus. The driver is not the regular danfo driver but some one who has a day job and pick passengers on his way to work and when he is coming back. Do you think a regular danfo driver's head will be cut in Lagos and those guys will go free with no other person injured? What will his conductor be doing? will other bus drivers that knows him in the garage just pass by and allow them inflict such wound on him? people are just naturally wicked. Where is the scratch on the white bus? Lets assume he is at fault must you draw blood from him? If he slums and dies will we still be saying danfo drivers are wicked? i drive and i run from them, any one who drives in Lagos know they only hit and beg or hit and run. God fought for the driver and he got justice right there and then, i wish the Ericsson staffs can come and say what they had gone through btw the time they wounded the driver and now. No man can go unpunished, God is a just God. Money is not everything for the person who is saying the driver wants compensation.
ReplyDeleteThis ur story is getting spicier ooooo
DeleteU are no more in d bus abi
Now u know someone in d bus
D agbero driver,conductor and u,were outnumbered
Kai! It must ve pained u oooooo anyway sorry but tell ur man friend to be careful cos no be only dem dey smoke igbo
Y won't u put God there
And BTW money is every thing biko it what we tell poor people to make them feel good about themselves
Bwahahahahaha
Bye
!
Where is the like button. Well said!
DeleteWhile I, in no way, condone the staff bus driver's alleged behaviour, the story is one sided. Assuming the story is true why do we think the danfo driver is not at fault? So you really think Ericsson is to blame for this? Its sad and strange the driver did that - I know him personally. Ericsson will not be liable, I am sure its a 3rd party company.
ReplyDeleteU know d ericsson driver personally
DeleteHmm..........
Its getting juicier
Violence everywhere; int he schools, homes, religious places, on the street, civil wars. The world is becoming more and more of a dismal place to live.
ReplyDeleteStella this is a terrible incident and thanks for putting it on your blog. If this was a civilized country both men will be detained for affray and the Ericsson staff will face the wrath of the law for causing grievous bodily harm but alas this is Nigeria. Sincerely there is so much violence in our country and it shows how we have lost our values as a nation.

ReplyDeleteNow am pushed to share the video I made at the scene. Just trying to help the so-called ericson staffs image here. Am glad the police justified the case by taking the staff bus to the station after all their fone calls. More money 2 spend n 2 idiotic staffs down... #ify
ReplyDeleteIf u like share it doesn't change anything
DeleteU ve no case
Police dey wait for settlement this yeye think say dem dey support dem
Hi Stella,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting.
Am sure you got my mail quite late.
This happened about 6pm yesterday. We stood by the driver because he was very quiet and driving responsibly. It was their bus that was wrong and the policemen @ the bridge before Adeniji interfered and I was really impressed at the way they took up the matter in a matter of minutes there were three police vehicles and about 10policemen at the scene. They arrested the driver and some of the staff of Ericsson and impounded their vehicle that a traffic disagreement should not escalate to drawing of blood from another citizen. We left the scene @ 8pm last night and the matter is currently at Adeniji police station in case you want to investigate further.
Msewwwwwwwee
DeleteWhich blood?
I no seee any blood ooo
Driving responsibly my ass
Liar!
At first u were a passenger
Msewwwwwwwee

@ezewanyi, y u de stalk ify like dis na? Ur comments on this mata jus de funny me
DeleteNice piece from an hungry blogger, instead of capitalizing on suppose recruiter of the private bus and exagerate on the bad actions potrayed by both the accuse and spectators you hammered on the privated company name who have a well trainned programme on ground . if you think you can win this case i can bet it. you are already a looser .if you are a baby reporter you need to learn journalism politics for you to grow . else .. this might affect you at the end of the day. i believe that adding more scene pictures to elaborate your point of view does not make the story a best seller. it just potrays you that you dont have much to report but finding a way to keep yourself busy...just be careful....Regards..lol
