We were on the same bus
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a young Nigerian lady, Jane Nwachukwu, went on Facebook to narrate how she met her fiancé at a park in 2019.
Jane said that she never wanted the man to board the same bus as her because he had a weird dreadlock on.
The lady revealed that the man should have gone with the bus that left previously but he stayed because he never liked the seat he was given.
