The Adventures Of Oko Ashawo The Uber Driver - 96

It will take a miracle to get an Asawo to totally repent.....

I believe that true repentance can only be possible by God's divine intervention.

I closed from work a few days ago around 11pm and decided to get food on my way home around a red light district and as I parked my car, a lady walked up to me gesturing if I wanted her for the night. I told her out rightly that I wasn't interested and was there to buy food only..


On a closer look, she turned out to be someone I know, who I offered regular cab services in the past.

 The last time i saw her was about 6 years ago.

I have known her to be a street girl in another part of the town where she operated. I hardly recognized her because she had added some weight and didn't look as attractive as she was before. We hugged and exchanged pleasantries and spent a few minutes catching up.

She told me that it has not been easy for her as a single mother and she had to return to Ashawo business after quitting for a while. She begged for some money, which I gave her, took her contact and promised to keep in touch.

I didn't save her number because I don't trust her. I have been avoiding her all these years after my last encounter with her. She had come with her friend to discuss with me about how they needed my help to escape with my car as they planned to rob a man who patronized them. The man usually brought lots of cash at the end of every month to pay his casual workers, so their plan was to drug the man in his hotel room and escape in my car.

Immediately, I pictured myself on television with handcuffs being paraded along with 2 Oloshos by the Police, gave an excuse I’d be out of town at the end of the month and blocked her number. Though there are a few good girls amongst the ashawos out there, many are thieves, liars and can even kill. I'm only interested in rendering my services and getting paid. I'm not interested in any other offering from them.

*Eyyaaaaa poor woman, you think she enjoys the work? being an asawo must ot be easy giving out the thing to so many people and doing without enjoying it... Or do they enjoy it? That Ashawo work is really evil .

No one should come and say it is because the govt did not provide for them  cos even in well organised countries, there are lots of asawo who can get by without the work but the thing fit dey sweet them.

Next time you meet an asawo, please preach to them to stop you hear?.... come to think of it, most of your customers are asawos, if they stop you no go get work....
