As a young professional, I always get to the bus terminal
very early in the morning so as to beat the traffic that comes with the morning
rush hour. Usually, the sight is that of drivers’ mates shouting names of
various locations to attract passengers. For me, my business has always been to
identify a bus going my way and hop in with the hope of getting to my
destination.
However, my routine with the trotro turned into a class of
lessons when I sat in one of the trotros and realized there was a television
set installed in it. These were what I gathered from my “trotro” experience. Usually,
televisions are found in buses that travel long distances. The reason, I
presume, is to help kill the boredom that comes with travelling long distances.
