Candid ~ Bus Conductor

“He always spoke to me in lilting Yoruba, spiced sometimes with English words or expressions. He spoke slowly because he said I was too Igbo to understand if he spoke as fast as he normally did on the bus, and I always marvelled at how normal his voice sounded at home but different once he got on the bus, as if bus conductors had a uniform for the voice, something they put on to disguise their real voices.” 

- Excerpt from Broda Sonnie - Nights Of The Creaking Bed by Toni Kan.
