A couple of weeks ago while returning home from work i boarded a bus from Mile 2 to Alakija a peep came into the bus and sat beside me a few minutes afterwards.
He then called the attention of a young guy selling sachets of water popularly called pure water in Nigeria which is sold for N10. He wanted to buy a sachet of water but had N20 so the pure water seller said there was no change and that peep prompted me to take the second one but i refused to.
After some prolonged argument between the pure water seller and the peep. I decided what the heck may be I should take the water so I could get some peace and quite so I thought.
I drank the water around Mile 2 by the time I got to Agboju, which was less than 5 minutes drive traffic permitting, I had fallen into a very deep sleep this was because the water I had taken had been intentionally drugged.
Tests done later revealed that the substance was meant to induce dehydration by drying up water in the body of the victim and hence knocking the person unconscious. Apparently the pure water seller and the other young man had been working together to execute a sinister plan.
No wonder the guy sitting beside me who paid for the water refused to pay before i did he wanted to know exactly where i would be alighting so that he could rearrange his plans against that. When paying the fare he told the conductor he would alight at Dantata which was immediately after Alakija and had already gained notoriety as a haven for robbers & their likes. The conductor refuted and said the man must alight at Alakija.
If not for the Holy Ghost who came to my aid what would i have said!
From hindsight what I could only ascribe to divine intervention happened; i woke up exactly at Alakija the bus stop where I was meant to alight.
My head was very heavy and I was walking about like a drunken man moving gracefully like a pendulum.
Some of the details of that day I could no longer recall. I could only tell that i finally crossed over took a bike and went home. Someone had to help me get to the house after which i slept off for a whole day.
I was walking like a drunk person stumbling into people. Really it wasn't funny.
I believe the culprits wanted to steal my belongings while I was asleep. But they couldn't because my belongings were hidden deep in my bag and I happened to have slept on the bag.
From similar reports I heard later on they would often times wake the victim at another bus stop and take him down (since the victim would be unconscious) and then do unto them whatever they wished.
The desperation in the country has reached a very low ebb and some people find it OK to stoop so low as to drug a fellow human being with strange substances just because they want to make some dough or whatever. Not even giving a thought to the effect their actions would have on their victims.
The lesson from this is for you to take care and be on guard. It is obvious that some people are willing to go to any length to make money.
Trust wisely and think twice in all situations.
If possible if you have to purchase any drink or food when in transit it's best to do so at a shop which can be traced in the event of any undesirable occurrence.
