Boda-boda guys have always been thought to be people of the lower class with low earnings. However, these people are not what other people think of them. They might appear to have miserable lifestyles but that's not the reality.
Being that they ride on their motorbikes with torn or seemingly old jackets does not mean they are of a lower class. There are 3 powerful features these people own;
1. They are hardworking
No boda-boda guy is lazy, a good percentage of these men are hardworking and determined. They wake up so early such that by 5 you hear sounds of their motorbikes already on the road commuting other early birds and they work till late in the night just to ensure that the families they've left behind have all the basic needs.
2. They are persistent
This point is self-explanatory. No one expects the job to be easy and enjoyable. It's hectic especially during rainy seasons but these people never think of quitting.
3. They are caring
Although they will ask you for some money, these people are so caring whenever they find you stranded in risky places in need of help. No Boda Boda guy will pass you when they have no customer already. They will always ask if at all you might need them to take you somewhere.
4. They are risk takers
Working till late in the night and waking up so early in the morning is dangerous but these guys never see this as big deal. Thugs mainly operate late at night and there have been many cases where they are killed and their motorbikes stolen by late night thugs. Despite all these, they still operate late in the night and very early in the morning.
