Obi Iyiegbu, a popular business mogul and philanthropist who goes by the moniker Obi Cubana, has described his journey to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, for his convocation some years back.
Obi Cubana, the chairman of the Cubana Group, shared a photo of himself on Wednesday night, describing how he traveled from Abuja to Nsukka for the celebration in a “night bus.”
He wrote:
We entered a bus from Area 1 Garki Abuja to Dumez, near Suleja so we could enter a cheaper ‘night bus’ instead of boarding from Jabi Park! We got tickets for Mercedes Benz 1414 commuter vehicle, attachment!
My Uncle, Zubby, bought me a pair of ‘Schooles’ shoes, having made him proud by making a 2:1 in the Political Science department!
Inside the 1414 benz bus, there was zero comfort, especially attachment! You dared not sleep because if you happened to rest your head on the shoulder of a trader that had ‘full seat’, you’d receive a slap or a punch, depending on the mindset!
We managed to get to Obollo Afor in the morning, where we would now take a bus into Nsukka. Getting to where we contributed money to stay for the entire Convocation, I realised I lost one of the pair of my adored and priceless “schooles” shoes.
It almost ruined my convocation! But today, here we are! Do people still enter ‘night bus’? This generation is enjoying!”
