Bus sex: Night travel’s fringe benefit

Night travel may be fraught with a lot of dangers in Nigeria where highways are not in the best condition and robbers use the state of the roads as an opportunity to ambush interstate commercial vehicles.

But in spite of these inherent dangers, there seems to be no reduction in the number of people who choose to go on journeys in the night.

Investigation by Saturday PUNCH showed that the attraction of some of the passengers to the night travel was more bizarre as much as it was almost unbelievable.

When Saturday PUNCH visited some parks to investigate, it found out passengers preferred night travels for different reasons.

Jose Mourinho: Chelsea's penalty against West Brom clear

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho insisted the controversial late spot-kick from which Eden Hazard earned a 2-2 draw with West Brom was a "clear penalty".

Baggies boss Steve Clarke was outraged by Andre Marriner's decision to penalise Steven Reid for a collision with Blues midfielder Ramires.

Arsene Wenger: Arsenal can match Man Utd's 1992 youngsters

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes his side's core of young players can prove as successful as Manchester United's famous 'Class of 1992'.

The Gunners head to Old Trafford on Sunday top of the Premier league.
"United had an exceptional group together - the two Neville brothers, David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt," Wenger said.

David Moyes has expressed regret over his use of Marouane Fellaini, with the Belgian having struggled since his move from Everton.

It could have been the £70m midfield highlight of the United versus Arsenal showdown but the Marouane Fellaini-Mesut Ozil clash might not even get off the ground at Old Trafford.
The Belgian and the German were the focus of engine-room transfer deadline day business back in September.
Arsenal’s club-record £43m splash on Ozil from Real Madrid stunned the Premier League and has inspired the Gunners.
United manager David Moyes’ long summer pursuit for his former Everton midfielder ended in the final minutes of the window with the Reds having to pay £27.5m for the 25-year-old.
But, while Ozil hit the ground running in England after being imported from La Liga helping to propel Arsenal to the top of the league, Fellaini has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford.
Last Tuesday in San Sebastian his sending off for two yellow cards against Real Sociedad put the tin lid on a difficult opening to his United career.

And his burgeoning reputation was further enhanced in midweek, as he netted the winner in a 1-0 away victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
