  Who can remember the good old days — the days when Nigerian road transport allowed only one passenger in the front seat of a transport vehicle and no passenger in the front seat of keke. Now it's two people squeezing in the front seat of a car, and Keke drivers now carry someone in front even when there is no real provision made for a passenger in front. Some of us will say it's something we're used to. But, let me tell you, it's quite dangerous and risky. You know how the front seat of a keke is only made for the driver, as there is little space for an extra body to occupy the front, so it's likely for someone's leg to stick out. Now because Nigerian drivers are greedy and always want to make extra cash by all means, keke drivers carry four instead of three (with three people at the back, and one in front seat with the driver). And it is more likely than not that the person in front will be uncomfortable, and will have his/her legs protruding from the keke.
  Now, just imagine an onrushing vehicle comes from behind and hits the leg of that person, it could prove fatal. Months back, something happened where a reckless driver hit a keke passenger's leg protruding out of the front seat, the man's leg became disjointed instantly, with his knee bone popping out of his flesh. Separated from his knees, his lower leg was just dangling, only held together by his flesh, trust me it was not a good sight. Now, one cannot be too careful when it comes to boarding a Keke. Even though you're late for something or it is raining, wait for a Keke that has vacancy at the back. Secondly,  Caution the driver when he's driving roughly, because Keke drivers (especially young ones) can be rude and reckless.
