Bros, they are not joking o. I have spent more than 8 hours all within Berger and Redemption Ground and at the end of the day i went back to Lagos when there was no way. At the sametime, i remember a year around 2008 in Challenge to Iwo road Ibadan Expressway, there was a traffic during ileya that lasted for almost 24 hours, people turned the expressroad to Praying Ground that ileya day and some killed their ram on the express road. This is not a joke but reality.
hmmmm 24 hours kethat can only happen in lagos

All u people using Lagos has ur business state and using Abuja has a home state and now cursing Lagos una go soon cast
Typical example of a Lagos lifestyle, always abusing people for no reason. Why on earth should someone spend five hours on traffic for a twenty minutes drive? FG should relocate some major industries in that state

I once spent 3hrs on isolo bridge. It was someone who called me twice that made me know. The first time around 6pm then called again around 9pm yet I was still on the bridge. She shouted 3hrs! It was then I checked my phone n knew I had spent 3hrs.
That day,I hated my car,felt like selling it for 20k. I envied those trekking cos of the stress plus d heat I was feeling. Though there's improvement but govt should still repair all bad roads around there.

I spent 20 hours on traffic at Lagos-Ibadan expressway. I was coming from OAU after my exams to Lagos on December, 2006. During the period, Redeemed church was having a crusade at their prayer camp and the whole buses coming from different parts of Nigeria jammed together at Redeemed camp on Lagos Ibadan expressway. It was a serious traffic and no mobility of cars and vehicle throughout the day.

Our bus got to Redeemed camp on Lagos Ibadan expressway by 1pm and we left that same spot by 10:30am the next morning. I can never forget the travel experience on that day. Because all passengers slept in their buses overnight on the expressway. Street hawkers began to sell pure water at 20 naira and bottle water at 100 naira in the night.

Traffic begins to ease when government sent Nigeria army the next morning. Trust Nigeria Army, they did a very good job compared to Federal Road Safety Corp.
