Oyani Farm Institute,Nyanza is a well known dairy farm somewhere in the present day Migori County. Most of my routes circumnavigate around this place and it’s environs. Oops sorry, hamnijui, I am one of the unique bodaboda operators or so I would say around Oyani Farm; I go by different names depending on my location at that particular moment of reference. Wonder suits me well but those who refer to me as 360° or Ochieng or even Brown aren’t wrong either, the point is I am the subject. Oh and am Okumu too but this woman that insists on referring to me as Baraoni (an inflected form of Brown) bugs me a whole lot.
Anyway my day begins with the first call I receive no matter the time. It’s like this modern day taxi business. Most of the time it is always the same client that begins my day. As earlier stated, am very unique in my own view, maybe I should explain this further (not in this inaugural episode though).
My first time in business is perhaps the worst experience I’ve ever been through. Fasten your safety belt, let’s unweave our way through a ‘nduthi’ man’s hustle.
