Better! Never understood the purpose of those massive roundabouts!

Now they need to tell LASTMA not control traffic around Billings way because they are causing more harm than good (Causing better traffic in the morning and especially in the evening)...

Looks good on paper until it's actually built, the problem might not be the design but the driving culture of the people using it!!

Look at those that will be joining the adjacent roads, I pity them. In Nigeria most drivers don't understand rights of way, they just jump in and hope the other motorists' brakes are working

Ambode is better than the clown called Obiano. He is truly working

You don't compare a megacity to a developing city, if you are intelligent, you should be able to comprehend this.

It's also a government that thinks .This kind of junction is presently at Civic center, VI and the oniru junction just before the pedestrian bridge at the Admiralty tollgate and it's working fine so I kept wondering why about two plots of land is being used for a useless roundabout. These roundabouts should be phased out all over Lagos even the Falomo round about.They are constituting traffic nuisance in my megacity of Lagos
The round-abouts make sense in some places but in others it's a waste of space and only causes confusion.


Let's not discount the chaos especially around law school axis during rush hour (despite the traffic lights)

Hopefully this proposal works on that lekki-ajah route.

Miss that zone tho

Fashola would NEVER do this. He was more interested in completing the 2ND tollgate and collecting fare without a viable bypass. Doesn't mind the suffering of the people as long as revenue is pouring in. Ambode is a true leader with a heart of Gold. Halted collection of fares on the 2nd toll, building an alternative route and the flyover at Ajah and reworking the bogus roundabouts that were built solely for advert revenue by fashola.We appreciate Abode and pray God guides him through his tenure.

I am not convinced these designs will do the trick! it still means stopping at junctions, which will slow down traffic. Lagos is a city that doesn't need to be stopped even for a second. A better design would be one that would just loop you to the other side of the road, like the Abuja airport road or the return loop at the second toll gate that you use to return to the opposite lane.That way there is no stoppage at all.

ambode is the best governor in Nigeria by a mile,a man that doesn't deal in propaganda like most governors in Nigeria does especially that obiano that buys primetime slots on national television to deceive his gullible followers.
So ure comparing Ambode dat received 20B IGR every month to Willie Obiano dat receives just 3B IGR per month? Willie Obiano is a better perfomer no doubt with the meagre resources compared to Ambode

People should just soft pedal on heaping praises on Lagos governors and have some deep retrospection on what they are supposedly touted as doing. Like this is just a roundabout for petes sake

It is pretty easy to get any Lagos governor to seem like he/she is working because of the way Lagos is strategically positioned within the media, intellectual, creative and economic sphere.

During Fashola time, it was as if BRF was the best thing in Lagos since ewa agoyin and bread but immediately the chips are down the reality of the hype and incompetence came bare.

Abegii!


Wawu!!!

The other day, my little son asked ''what is the meaning of LCC'' I didn't answer. The boy kept silent for some seconds and then blurted out ''Lekki Corruption Company''. I was shocked. That is the story of Lekki Epe Expressway under the last two regimes in Lagos State.

Any sensible person elected as Lagos State governor will perform, and you know why?

1. Lagos is the economic hub of Nigeria and Africa, and as a result, it has the highest IGR (Internally Generated Revenue), which makes huge amount of fund readily available for the governor and government of Lagos State to embark on developmental projects

2. Majority of people living in Lagos are economically productive and pay direct/indirect tax to Lagos State government unlike South-south states that generate majority of their fund from Federal Government allocation, but with huge wastage, infrastural/human destruction, increased security cost, etc resulting from militancy that's peculiar with any economy that's dependent on natural mineral resource.

3. Less oppostion. All thanks to Bola Tinubu who made frantic efforts in the past decades to kill every emerging opposition party in Lagos State. This makes it less stressful for any Lagos State governor to initiate and execute developmental projects without much delay from the state assembly.

4. Unique tribe and culture. Leading Lagos State is easy because Lagos is a homogenous tribe; Yoruba, unlike other states in the north and south-south were you will have more than 6 different tribes in one state speaking over 10 different dialects, making it difficult for there to be unification because each tribe will be fighting for their tribe's interest to the detriment of other tribes in the state.

Take Delta State for in stance.

This is the same challenges Nigeria is facing today, and Fashola has now realised that being successful as a Lagos State governor is not the same with being a minister of the federal republic of Nigeria.

So in conclusion, any sensible adult can perform as a governor of Lagos State...to test that person's ability to excel, give him or her a national leadership role and watch the outcome.

Football fans have also argued in this same direction in regards to Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi who has only played in one club; Barcelona, compared to C. Ronaldo who has played and excelled in different clubs in different European countries.

Nonsense!!!, [/b]If I am the governor of Lagos state I will do better[b], what is there in using some part of Federal allocation of almost N9billion every month and Igr to build roundabout, already made state by FG.
Re: New Look Of Lekki Roundabouts (photos,video) by atilla(m): 12:35pm On Nov 29, 2016
lagosians don't really follow the rules of roundabouts reasons most times there are gridlocks when no body is way and then no one can move.

Turning those gigantic plots of grass into street lights will be a very good idea. They might need to put speed bumps to prevent crashes in the night from speeding drivers.

Hater spotted. Yes, in the land of the blind, a one-eyed man is indeed king. So yes in a non-performing state like Nigeria, the likes of Ambode must be celebrated as again the chelsea drinking likes of Fayose. We celebrate what we have so they can be encouraged to do more
