Lies grin

If such measly amount was what Lagos State generates from the toll, it won't collaborate with the FG to committ what they committed.


E pain them die. Toll gate generating billions weekly, 20-30M daily is what's been downplayed to 2m to appear apathetic whereas the reverse is the case.



Thieves. Why has the international creditors not held Lagos state captive since its closure

Open the books how much was loaned, how much has been serviced, what's the balance left.



Thieves. Your books haven't been audited since 1999,yet you are quick to smear anything wrong in other regions whereas you're just a colony of intense corruption. Thieves
Oga calm Down the money for that Toll gate had been paid for Long before Fashola left office.....theres a board at LCC that manages it with reps from the Lekki area as members.....and where's your proof that their books have not been audited.....they have delliotte and KPMG running their books so I don't see how they don't have audited books.

How would you compare a third world country with the USA that have structures in place that support its people that when you pay tax you can’t deny where it’s going into. Please don’t say that outside.

kuku go their border and ask them to open it down, because is like you don't know a border is a toll gate of its own......different cities will offer different amenities just to get you to come stay.....doesn't mean everyone follows the same step.......if you don't like the toll feel free to connect Ogun to Ajah so you won't pay toll anymore....

I had to go check again if a border is a toll gate of it own undecided. As it turns out a border is not a tollgate of it own ,or for its own.
While they are both passage points, one is billed and the other isn't. Thanks

if Nigeria was a Sane country.....are you dense? you held protest and block all the roads.....my friend spent 5hours on the road in crisis while you were out chanting end Sars, and fem....killing police men,burning police stations, and raiding shops.....another friend of mine his dad suffered a stroke, they couldn't go out till early morning.....these are examples I know.....think of examples I don't know, and people who actually died from one issue or the other because they couldn't be attended to.....I'm not saying you should not protest.....but when you use your right to block the right of others you are no different from the terrorists and bad leaders you complain about......don't come to me talking about blood when your entire struggle shows you have no respect for it......I can't wait for them to come back and increase the price to balance loss.....
You think freedom is free? Everything you think you have today now, someone somewhere paid the price for it.

Lies. From another cheat


I'm sure you didn't listen to the stuttering responses the finances commissioner of Lagos gives each time he's asked for answers
Continue deceiving yourself mention organizations with credible names. Quote the report where it lies publicly and out me to shame.

Oga is anyone holding a gun to your head? or which freedom are you looking for? you obviously have some level of comfort to you......if you feel your freedom is threatened Canada is there if you don't want to go far Ghana is there...go and enjoy your freedom.

but you as a citizen can go out and destroy what little structures that are in place? and as for tax, go to the UK and know what tax is......despite our large population a lot of our economy in the informal sector where taxes are easily evaded.....we barely pay tax proportionate to our economy.....the one we do pay for you went out to destroy.......outside government properties.....do you know how many people's livelihood was ruined because they just wouldn't get off the street......a girl died because she was runover by her fellow endsars protester while fleeing.......the guy ran off....that werey will not sorosoke......but you want to be living in fantasy land instead of facing the reality of your social and economic environment.

I still stand by what I said, If there are functional structures in this shithole then whatever tax we are force to pay we will gladly obliged, erecting a tollgate when you have to pay N250 or N200 every trip is insensitive and heartless this period when there’s a pandemic and every kobo matter, forget the pandemic sef having the toll gate in general at that spot was not necessary, interstate would have been understandable

Look around you in Lagos. With all those revenue , there is really nothing much on ground to show

As in..

Even when they were collecting that toll, they couldn't even use 1% of it, to light up the roads and put lane markings.

Drive on Lekki EPE TODAY and you will see that 90% of the road has no lanes ( they have all faded away)

Yet they were making millions and billions, and doing what with it exactly?

You need to travel out. Toll gates exist in major cities around the world for revenue generation.

It is you that needs to travel out, to realize that there exists alternatives to those tolled highways in those countries

and those alternatives are also HIGHWAYS, not one-lane market roads

But there are good alternatives, I have stayed in Houston. Sam Houston Circuit and toll roads are for people that want to travel fast. Unlike Lekki where the main roads are tolled!

Bravo Dude! Bravo!

Tell dem about Houston abeg
