One thing I do whenever I’m in a keke is pay for at least one person I see inside the keke or everybody inside, depending on how my spirit leads me.
Yesterday, I decided to pay for the guy I met inside. It was just the two of us.
When we got to my stop, I gave the keke man ₦1,000.
My transport was ₦300, so he was supposed to give me ₦700 change.
I stretched out my hand for the change and told the keke man, “Collect for him too,” referring to the guy sitting beside me.
The keke man handed me the change.
Before I could even say anything, this guy turned to me and said, “Sister, you no go leave the change for me? You’re bigger than that.”
Excuse me?
Him: watin you wan use 400 naira do? Big woman like you.
Someone i have never met nor seen. The more he talked, the more irritated I got.
Not even a single “Thanks” nkiti
I told the keke man, “Please give me my ₦1,000 back.”
He gave it to me.
I collected my ₦1,000 and brought out ₦300 change from my bag to pay for only myself.
Thank God I had change.
He said “sister na this small thing I talk dey vex you? Na ordinary 400 ooh. Oya no vex.
I was already long gone with my money.
Now before some of you come and say, “But you already wanted to pay for him.
Yes, I did.
I wasn’t collecting that money because I suddenly became broke. I had already made up my mind to pay.
I care a lot about how people behave when I do something for them.
You don’t have to roll on the floor and worship me. You don’t even have to make a speech.
A simple “thank you” is enough.
But don’t sit beside me in the same keke I’m riding and start telling me I’m bigger than ₦400.
How am I bigger than ₦400? How am I bigger than ₦700 change?
We are literally sitting in the same keke.
You didn’t beg me. I just chose to be kind. The least you can do is behave yourself and say thank you.
If I want to dash you anything, I’ll do it.
Kindness is free, but so is gratitude.
If you receive one, don’t forget the other.
