Have you ever boarded a bus where everyone seems to know how to drive better than the driver? Even pregnant women who have not experienced handling the steering all their lives shout at the tops of their voices, giving “ more experienced advice” on which route to take and which lane to ply. I don’t know anything about the standards for recruitment but boy, we commuters can so frustrate them! I know this is a departure from the usual condemnations that pour out on these people but permit me as I make bold to laud them in this article (and I stand to be corrected too…)

Okay, maybe that was just for fun…but I am not a danfo driver! (Not a matter of prestige now, but I do not envy them!) Having boarded so many danfo buses in my sojourn in this metropolitan state of Lagos, I opine that one of the most challenging professions to practice is the danfo profession (yes, and I mean profession). What is perhaps amazing is how they got so many people (even doctors, lawyers and communicators) to affiliate with the yellow and black profession as they excitedly answered in affirmative to the question posed in the chorus: One of the most popular songs that have made waves in the Nigerian music industry is probably “ Danfo Drivers” in which many Nigerians moved to the rhythm of the “ swo” dance while the talented duo of the musicians happily smiled to the bank.
