Popular Singer, Baba Dee Blasts Corruption After Shocking Experience On Lagos Train System (Video)

Dare Fasasi, the Nigerian singer and activist, who is popularly known as Baba Dee, has condemned what he describes as entrenched corruption and mismanagement in Nigeria’s public systems, citing his recent experience with the Lagos train service as an example.

In a post shared on Instagram, Baba Dee said he had to abandon his car and use the train while in Lagos because of the severe traffic on the roads.

What he encountered, however, left him stunned.

According to him, train stations were “out of” Cowrie cards in December, one of the busiest commuting periods of the year.

“How does that even happen?” he asked.

The situation reportedly got worse at the Orile–Iganmu station, where Dare said an attendant was openly collecting bank transfers into his personal account to allow passengers board the train.

Commuters, he explained, paid because they had no other option.

“This is daylight robbery dressed up as public service,” he wrote.

Dare warned that such practices will quickly destroy public trust and k!ll train patronage, stressing that no system can survive when those meant to manage it treat it like a personal cash machine.

“You don’t sabotage a system and expect it to survive,” he stated.
