Because the Nigerian government has failed to realize the age old law , fear doesn't work neither does oppression.

Force only works for a short time

Reorientation is best and Democratic practices

Auctioning peoples cars without waiting for some time, I would say like 3 years. Is kind of inhumane.


The goal of penalizing people is not to cause immediate and long term hardship. It is to give immediate and short term lesson and not long term hardship, even though it can lead to it.


The penalizing process has to be planned. I don't want to start giving ideas, but this idea that oga sanwo is implementing is done in many developed world, only in a more organized and less chaotic fashion.



Our leaders like to act out of excitement at the moment the idea is revealed to them, most times, without any think through, and how it can be adapted to the society they are living in. This attitude shows immaturity in leadership. Many of our leaders are in this category. There is room to grow though.




By now, the process from seizure to payment to release or further withholding, should be constantly explained for three weeks or more by the PR people; and also, by the online people.


We can implement things and make it orderly. It is not rocket science, even though it is social engineering.

. T. Twice I have seen cars plying one way kill pedestrians in Sangotedo area of Ibeju lekki.If they were people close to you,will you still be singing same tune?

You drive one way, you kill someone = felony
you drive normal way, you kill someone = felony

So whether you drive one way or normal way, if you kill someone while driving, that's a criminal offense or violent crime. BUT

you drive one way = misdemeanor

You should get a FINE, or TICKET. Auctioning someone's car because of this = ABUSE OF POWER = ILLEGALITY = MADNESS = Govt Dictatorship

As long as traffic enforcement officers in Lagos collect money from vehicles instead of controlling traffic, only few will always be punished but the problem will still persists. Places meant for vehicles to pass are turned to market under the watch of policemen, lastma officials and neighbourhood Watch corps.

Why would you AUCTION people's cars, is that not MADNESS and abuse of power? The outrageous fines for Lagos traffic laws violations are they not enough, yet you start auctioning people's cars that you did not buy or contribute for them to buy it. This is another Sanwo Olu policy I will never ever support. It is wrong, completely wrong. You can't just be usurping people's properties for a NON - CRIMINAL OFFENSE. Traffic violations or crimes like one way, no seat belt, over speeding etc is a misdemeanor offense or infraction. It is a traffic offense like Hit and Run, hit and kill murder etc that is CLASSIFIED as a felony. In the abroad that he mentioned, do they arbitrarily seize and auction people's cars for traffic misdemeanors? No way! It's only in NIGERIA that these useless govts turn everything upside down. In Canada, no single traffic violation code even falls under the criminal offenses. Nawa for this useless country oh. The Judiciary is practically dead, otherwise they should be defending the public from this type of terrible abuse of power.



You have spoken well
