If you stay in PH town you'll know abuja estate, as we got there a lady was about coming down from the bus, someone called and as I brought my phone out, the young man grab my phone and was shouting give that phone and I replied him,, which phone? I refused to let go of my phone before the drive could come out he ran away. I said to myself so na my phone that boy want take go sell 1k wet him go take go by coco .

My Personal Experience at Mile 2.
This happened in October, 2013 on our way frm Airport. I'll b very brief. Went to pick my Cousin who returned frm Italy with 2 of his female friends. I was driving a Pegeout 607, my cousin in front of the Car, d two Girls at the back with a few Luggage at the back seat too as the Boot was already filled up. We were trying to connect Alaba Suru- Orile - Costain to Apapa cos the Traffic along Berger - Sunrise through Trinity was much...this was around 9 - 10pm. Omo, on top Mile 2 bridge, na so one guy notice our Car, knock 4 my cousin side, point to him mouth. My cousin without any Naira asked me to get him somtin, i reached 4 my pockets and gave him (Cousin) #700 to give d guy....the Car was fully wined(i No knw weda na d correct spelling b dat oo, lol) up, i wined down small, throw d #700 to d guy...he left, came back a few seconds again with a Big Stone demanding my cousin to winne down. He bluntly refused, b4 we knw it, the guy hit the stone on my windScreen in an attempt to rub us. As a Lagos boi with 5 years experience living in Ajegunle, na so i use my Motor hit d next car wey dey my front, the Man came down to check d dent on his car. That was when we came down explained what really happened to us.
My people, beware of Mile 2 bridge!!! That place is Terrible.

it's a terrible experience, I travelled through sea on the 11th of Jan this year. The journey was ok until we saw a speed boat carrying about 4boys with gun approach us, they are militants, immediately they started beating the passengers in our speedboat, they collected all we had with us including pants , lols. they kidnapped a woman and about 30 to 40mins of beating .

I was in Lag last two weeks and I decided to visit computer village before coming back to Ilorin, when I dropped from a bus I saw a nigga with bold 5 and it was priced 5k by me and ....to b count..... lolz the guy used juju vo me

My own experience happened in Mushin. I was comin back from work early dis year. There was dis young lady driving a siena bus car. She left her phone on the driver's seat and wound down her glass. This guy just came from nowhere and took d fone. The girl didn't even realise even when they were shouting "ole",ole,ole and chasing d guy not until she was told that her fone has been stolen, mehn, u need to see display from d fine babe dat day.

Good evening pals, just got back from work and i want to share my story with you. I also need your contribution and experiences.

I work at Festac but i live at Apapa. I boarded a Mile 2 bus at Festac. When I got to mile2 bustop by 7:30pm, I boarded a danfo bus (LT35) to Apapa. The bus has five rows and i was at the middle. As we left mile2, there was traffic immediately after the bridge.

While pressing my phone, the girl at the extreme back near the window who was pressing her phone shouted "JESUS!!!!" We all looked back thinking that the truck behind us was about to hit us.

However,what we saw was a young guy in all black attire and a face cap trying to pick up something from the floor outside.

Suddenly, the conductor started shouting "Ole! Ole!! Ole!!!" (thief thief thief)

Before the conductor could even get down from the bus, the guy took to his heels. He ran into the other side of the road and we didnt see him again.....That was when we realized that he had stolen the Samsung S5 belonging to the girl sitting near the window..

And that was it, the phone was gone just like that. I was in shock till i got home.

Share your own Mile 2 experience.

that samsung s5 na delicate phone. am sure it has broken as it landed on the floor. and she has a samsung s5 but is entering bus ? priorities

I couldn't sleep for more than a week, I thank God Almighty I'm alive

Mile 2, just like Ojota,ikeja, ketu, oshodi, mile12, boundry etc is very bad and dangerous even to pass in day time, let alone at night.

Except you are inside a protected car or bus locked and wt Ac, and the vehicles are moving fast, that is no traffic, if not hide your smart phones.Mile 2 and many other lagos bus stops are not the best place to chat,ping, do bbm, whatsapps, or reply email. You can do that in a more secure place, if it is urgent, then do 'brb' and hide your phone before those street boys see you.

There are many fake lastma in mile 2, extorting money from car owners. Infact, those area boys now sew lastma uniform to wear.

It is very important that BRF do something about mile2 to oto wharf, berger, infact from Cele down to Liverpool . Police presence should always be there 24/7

Aro: aboy wida, who goes!

I was quite, I just felt like the ground should open and swallow me. Then he comes close to me.

Aro: wetin you hold there?

He comes closer and collects them after searching me thoroughly.

Aro: start from here dey run dey go, make you no look back. If you mumu, we go just waste you here. *slaps my head* oya dey run.

Poor boi still jumping buses

Had this experience around Oshodi close to Bolade bus stop years back. There was traffic and a lady with a male companion were in a private car when suddenly i saw a guy dashed across to the car and actually pulled out her gold earrings from her ears giving her wounds and this happened within seconds. I fear Oshodi today.

Mine happened right in the bus, d man sitting next to me was corporately dressed that I felt I sat beside a responsible sumbori. Wen d conductor started collectin fare charges after payin mine, d man nxt to me had to pay his obviously. I noticed him tuckin his hands into his pocket in and out, I jes felt he was tryin to get d exact change as d conductor kept screaming "hold ur change o, mi o ni changii ooo" btw mile2 n oshodi I was to allight @ iyanna itire after ballet bustop. I dint for once tink of my fone until I got off d bus. Only for me to reach out to my fone and it was GONE! Then I realised the corporately dressed sumbori moved it.

They have tried this on me at least twice but I have always instinctively hit at the hand and my phones dropped back in the car. The last time was so funny. Having learnt their tricks, I noticed the guy reviewing my car and signalled to his cohort to distract me. At d same time I moved my phones to a compartment just above the pedal areas. The decoy guy came to my side and started speaking gibberish as usual while his counterpart was gripping for the phones he so certainly saw in less than a minute ago. I knew the game well, so I reached out for my jack knife flipped it and as the guy was bringing his head up and out because he actually leaned into my car, I struck and the knife grazed him. He just shouted and disappeared. I wound up and carried on as if nothing happened. These days I drive with my short gun and this Hausa sword that looks like a walking stick. I am a late night crawler. As I type I just left my office to my drinking pad while waiting for traffic to thin out before I head out to my mainland abode. I work around VI and hang out at Oniru most nights. God punish their papa.

How could you type ''my encounter...'' knowing you weren't the victim. Wrong usage of suspense!

Abi?

Re-phrase ur topic jare OP.....It wasnt ur encounter...cos if it were, u wldn't b in d same frame of mind as u r ryt now...Samsung S5 no b yam abeg..

I was driving behind a lady along mushin road when this kinda thing happened to her and it was early evening say around 5pm. I was positioning to knock the guy down but the lady was not giving me the driving room. She was still in shock when I overtook her and shouted out sorry ooo madam.

See real J.J.C, you are not supose to showcase expensive gadgets in public places most especially in a bus(as for me bringing out an s5 while in a bus is to showcase it therefore enticing those that are looking for things to steal). I have heard so many cases where passengers were robbed why inside a bus. Hope she learnt her lesson.

aint u happy he was nt the victim. he is just sharing wat he witnessed.

pablus:
glad nobody was physically hurt. what is "pressing phone"?

typing

May God console her! This is one reason why I wouldn't want to use an expensive phone so that when robbers steal it I won't cry much!
