Hello Laila and my fellow TILB readers, Its sunday morning and i am in church hearing enough word of God. This is the right time and place. I want to speak up on an issue we have all chosen to ignore out of fear or ignorance.
Have you ever boarded a bus to a long destination and while you're trying to catch a wink of sleep the passenger sitting beside you starts preaching?
It is one of the worst experiences in public transports. Bus preachers, they steal the comfort of travelling. What motivates them or do they just enjoy disturbing other passengers?
A transporter was arrested in South Africa for allowing a preacher preach in his bus. The authorities said it infringes the religious right of other people. That the passengers are a collection of people of different religions. When will the Nigerian authority start enforcing such laws?
If you observe very well you will notice that it is usually rampant on Mondays. After hearing sermons on Sunday these people go out on Monday making every vehicle they board their religious centre and the passengers their congregation.
The worst of them all are the ones from The Lord's Chosen ministry. OMG! They are aggressive, loud, tactless, stubborn and offensively sanctimonious. Their voices are louder than that of the conductors three times over. Because of their noisy preaching a lot of people miss their bus stops every time.
Bus preaching should be made a punishable offence. Offenders should be banned from boarding public transports for six months or pay a fine of N1 million. This social misconduct needs to stop. A bus is not a church.
Guys, do you agree with him on this?
