“I had an ordeal coming from Surulere this noon. On my way to Charlie Boy through Oshodi axis, I encountered the supposed 5 million match for presidential candidate Tinubu. We had to slow down due to the situation.
“Moreoso, I was going in the opposite direction of the campaign when about 10 men/thugs crossed over to the lane where we were, and while waiting for them to pass, this dude walked towards my vehicle, shouting, and used an object to hit my mirror and get it vandalized.
“In Lagos, thuggery is at its worst right now. Five males approached me as I got out of my car, chanting "kilo fe shey" meaning what I was going to do. I gave a response and took action in Yoruba.
“Then one man walked up from behind and said "efi le omo yoruba ni," which means "leave him, he's yoruba."
“Who will buy my power mirror? Not even now, when our currency is shaky and everything is ridiculously expensive, but why make life more difficult for one another?
“I am not affiliated with any political party; rather, I believe that this country deserves to be better. This was my experience while driving in Lagos today. I leave everything up to God, because no one gets justice in this country.”
