A Nigerian man has sparked debate online after sharing an experience at a motor park involving a woman and her three children.
The incident, which he posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), has drawn mixed reactions from social media users.
Passenger Walks Away After Disagreement
In his post, the man explained that he arrived at the park early in the morning when a woman showed up with three children who appeared to be about 10, 8 and 6 years old.
According to him, the driver asked the woman to pay for two seats. However, she reportedly refused.
He said the woman pointed at a passenger sitting at the back and suggested that the passenger would carry one child, he would carry another, while she would carry the third.
The man said he did not argue. Instead, he picked up his bag and moved to another vehicle.
