Mercedez 911 popularly called molue was formed by students back then, in 1972 there was a riot and students were forced to take those buses then cause they had no choice, so one day the conductor was beating and harassing students and a military man was on mufti and watching so when they got to barrack bus-stop then at oshodi the army told the conductor to get down and student and the conductor was been beaten and he was begging and shouting (I didn't beat u, I didn't beat u in yoruba) meaning "mo lu ire" from there molue was coined among we students then.

milestonejnr: I applaud Nigerians ingenuity in the renaming of cars. They are peculiar and easily find names that suit things. This our legendary ingenuity in more pronounced in the automobile industry where practically all cars have a local name given to it.
In overseas, cars are identified by their model and brand names, but it is quite a different case here in Nigeria. In Nigeria, most cars are known by their localized name and very few identify these cars by their real brand and model name. Honda Accord 1999 model : "Honda Baby Boy" - Maybe because it was used in 2001 Tyrese Gibson and Snoop Dogg's movie titled "Baby Boy" Below are some cars with their Nigerian-given names.Most of the names just sound funny. I wonder how they came across all the names you are about to see.
1. Toyota camry 2003-2005 model : "Big for Nothing" or "Big Daddy" 2. Honda Accord 1994 model : "Honda Hala" 3. Honda Accord 1999 model : "Honda Baby Boy" - Maybe because it was used in 2001 Tyrese Gibson and Snoop Dogg's movie titled "Baby Boy" 4. Lexus RX-300 : "Ajebor" 5.Mercedes S class : "Beast" 6.Toyota Camry 2010 model : "Muscle/Spider" 7.Toyota Camry 1999 model : "Pencil/tiny light" 8. Honda Accord 2003-2005 model : "End of discussion" 9. Honda Accord 2006-2010 model : "Discussion Continues" 10. Honda Accord 2011-2012 model : "Evil Spirit" 11. Toyota Corolla 1996 model : "First Lady" 12. Mercedes Benz 300 1990 model : "V boot" 13. Volkswagen Transporter : "Danfo" 14. Mercedes Benz 911 powered commuter bus : "Molue" 15. Volvo GL 750 : "Coffin" 16. Toyota camry v6 2002 model : "Envelope"
