Oga stop me here o!
Location: Brighton |
I recall one of my first times boarding a commercial bus in London. Usually, if you intend to alight at a certain bus stop, you’re expected to press the bell before the driver approaches the bus stop. So on this occasion, I got to where I was gonna alight, and of course, I wasn’t used to “pressing the bell” before hand, so as the driver approached my street I tried to alert him by saying “I’m stopping here o”, but he didn’t listen.
Before I said jack, he had zoomed passed my street, then I started screaming “Oga stop me here o”… (Pidgin English).

For where! The driver didn’t even turn towards my direction even though I was standing right beside him in the bus. Everyone in the bus was giving me the ‘what’s-wrong-with-this-one’ look.🙄
Then I remembered that I was in the UK. But before I would press the bell, driver had driven like five bus stops passed my street. 😩
Omo! That day, see trekking for me. Plus my plenty heavy bags. No Okada!
I almost cry! 😩
