Do these iddiots know this will stunt the growth of the state as new roads won't be built if they can't be tolled to recoup the costs? If the toll has made the money spent as planned then they should wrap it up.

Even Georgia had a toll on a portion 400 past the time it was supposed to be for and it funded a lot of project until the last governor Nathan Deal used it to campaign that he would remove it and did on his 2nd term bid. That road was the best and would take me 18 mins from Alpharetta to Buckhead. Toll roads bring development because investors know they can get their money back and won't build roads if they have no way of getting the money invested. Taxes are what develop states.

Wetin I know self, don't worry roads and developments will fall from the sky.

You should be ashamed of yourself. he even compared lekki bloodbath with worst 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. Thousands of people died in the protest. Outcome of that protests is what you see in China today- development.

we'll start somewhere.

Your taxes are used to overpay your law makers.
While your government borrows money quarterly to fund projects that Neva see the light of day.

Taxes have proven to be impotent in bringing any positive change.

You see the pocket money your governor gave his son in Dubai last week, that's your task.

You see that untarred road in your street, that's what your tax will never fix
In other words, tax should also be outrightly scrapped too

Very brilliant girl, well-done

So the oil money of south south gave Lagos the sea port. The oil money brought those industries and made Lagos the centre of entertainment.

Ummm...Before Lagos became FG capital, which industries were there. Secondly, kindly show us the pictures of Seaport in Lagos before it became Capital, need I remind you that Malawi once dubbed the poverty capital of the world, has four Seaports, so... It doesn't make any nation superbly special.

Scrapping the Lekki Toll gate would be a foolish thing to do as it would send the wrong signal to potential investors who want to do a Public Private Partnership with the government undecided
How lifes will you sacrifice for public private partnership (ppp) i pity who will be the toll collector, who he/she will sleep at nite?

Same things happen in developed countries, their major roads are toll, and you must pay everytime you use the road, except if you have a pass.

Na wa oh, which country is that?

The toll gate is not supposed to be there forever. I am sure they have already recovered every money spent on the roads. But greed won't let them stop and we Nigerians don't speak up to challenge it

recover? bro, they must have flipped by now, only question is times how much?

remember the distance between the two toll gates is only about 10km.

You dey mind them?

People that are near illiterates. All over the world, certain roads are tolled for adequate and timely maintenance. If in doubt ask your relatives who are struggling to survive in the white man's land.

okay bro, why not do lagos state a favor by placing a toll gate on your street. so that every time you go to work, you pay.

I am sure you don't even pass that road daily, you will just be saying trash, when the people that use the road multiple times a day are trying to protest.

Please petition your local government this morning, it's still early, so that they can place toll gate on your street.

Please do it! Contribute your quota

Please bro

Please

Who ever will seat on the toll gate will be given curse moni with immediate effact. an easy target for ritual, cos a public enemies seen as one, the blood cries of evil ,will smite with by dawn the price they pay for love of money. thousand one evil and dark angels (demons) along side souls to take, woo unto a toll gate collector for they shall rot in life while not dead.
