Bus Conductor Beats Up His Driver Over Money And Fuel

According to new report, a commercial bus conductor on Monday beat his driver around 3PM in Mile One, Port Harcourt, forced passersby to intervene and restore peace.

Trouble started as their vehicle ran out of fuel and also the driver set to shut for the day and opted to pay his conductor N2,000 rather than the agreed N3,000 for the whole day.

It was gathered that the bus conductor got infuriated by the decision of his boss and insisted that the earlier agreed amount must be paid to him regardless of what had happened.

An eyewitness identified as Confidence, said the commercial bus driver and his conductor started an argument, which resulted in a fight.

He said, “The driver wanted to pay his conductor N2,000 as against the N3,000 agreed by both of them. This was because they had closed earlier than expected because their vehicle ran out of fuel unexpectedly and there was not enough money to refuel the vehicle.

“The conductor, however, insisted that the agreed sum of N3,000 be paid to him by the driver. But when the driver refused, a fight ensued. The bus conductor beat up his driver, tearing his clothes and also stripping him n*ked. We had to intervene to settle the fight.”

When contacted, the Rivers State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Nnamdi Omoni, said he had not been briefed about the incident.
