"My first time working as an Uber driver, I was on a trip around the Lekki axis when a lady booked me.
On getting to her location to pick her up, a guy escorted her out of an apartment. The next minute, they started dr@gg!ng over money, saying it wasn’t complete. That was when I realised she was probably a r girl or so, but then it wasn’t my business.
On our way to the mainland, she started complaining about the amount the guy gave her. She was visibly a&gry and kept talking about how the money wasn’t enough for what she had done.
“Ooh, what is this? This is the third day I have been with him and his friends. Even my Uber fee, he didn’t give me.”
I was just staring through my side mirror when I noticed she started pulling off her clothes to change into something more modest. I thought maybe she was going home to her parents and didn’t want them to know what she does.
Out of nowhere, I heard her say, “Bros, is it okay for me to pay in kind? Can I pay in kind?” I asked her do people pay in kind, and she said yes, that the Uber driver who brought her earlier had accepted it.
I told her clearly that I was not interested. I told her I wanted my ₦28,000. She took her time dressing up, probably thinking I would change my mind, but I didn’t.
When we got to her destination, she continued complaining about the money again, saying it was not what she expected and that she would have to call the man to come and pay her balance.
At the gate, she called someone and a man came out with a child. The child kept shouting “Mummy,” so I knew immediately he was her son, but I wasn’t sure about the man.
She got down acting tired and slowly walking inside. I then asked the man jokingly, “Boss, is this your sister, I like her oo?” we even had a small conversation during the trip. He smiled and said, “You wan collect my wife?” That was when I got sh0cked.
He said they had been married for three years and that she had travelled to Ibadan for her catering job. He even said he was the one who told her to use Uber when she got to Lagos because she would be tired.
I was in deep sh0ck. Hmm... Women are d@ng£r0us oo..."
