An actress refuses to hit the road for anything past a quick trip. Nollywood star Shaffy Bello stated she avoids long-distance travel within Nigeria, drawing a hard line at journeys longer than the ride from Lagos to Ibadan. She explained in an interview that while she enjoys road trips abroad, infrastructure and security concerns at home make her stick strictly to air or water transport.
This personal policy has apparently put a dent in her social life. Bello noted that friends and family now know not to even invite her to events requiring a lengthy drive, unless the person is extremely important to her. Her stance highlights a common anxiety, framing road travel beyond that short corridor as a non-starter due to the perceived risks and hassles.
