A recently surfaced online video captures the undeniable reality of Lagosians immersed in deep slumber within a BRT vehicle as they embark on their journey to work.
This trending clip serves as a vivid illustration of the oft-repeated adage, “The hustle is real.”
In their relentless pursuit of making ends meet and ensuring the daily sustenance of their families, a notable number of Lagosians, predominantly men, exhibit visible signs of weariness during their early morning commute to work. The video portrays a scene where all occupants, fatigued from their endeavors, find solace in a profound sleep while the BRT driver navigates them towards their respective destinations.
Predictably, the video has ignited a spectrum of reactions across online platforms. Some individuals sympathize with the apparent challenges of the 9-5 grind, emphasizing the demanding nature of such employment coupled with meager remuneration.
