Tinubu is their grandsmaster... Lagos is the only state in Nigeria where agbero seems to be openly constituting nuisance in the public. The suffering created by the people is worrisome. The problems has remained unchecked for many years.

I am not: N800 in every bus/stop...

What else do you expect from Stockholm syndrome folks? They deserve to suffer. I wish the strike continues till the end of the month, maybe by then, these cretinous fvcktards would have learnt a thing or two.

@Topic: The strike should continue. The average Nigerian deserves to suffer!!!

The reason for the extorting in the disguise as hike in tickets fee and new levies on traders in computer village is to raise funds for tinubu's 2023 presidential ambition.Don't be deceived.Tinubu's hand is on this.

We don't even share borders with igbos, so I'm crazily concerned how you guys are all over Yoruba. What's your goal in life? You came hundreds of miles to Yoruba to tell us what to do on our land. Ebonyi were killing themselves because of park's control weeks ago but I guess you travelled to Damascus then.

Re: Extortion: Bus Drivers Protest On Lagos-Badagry Expressway, Commuters Stranded by Simplythebest: 10:32pm On Mar 06, 2021
Even lagos state has introduced their own new ticket money N800 for big bus while N400 for small bus and the driver i entered was complaining bitterly about it and the last thing he said that is their passengers will bear the cost which they have already increase transport fare from ikorodu to mile 12 for N200 against N100 before introduction of this new ticket by lagos state. What a country with wicked and selfish leaders.

You buy a bus for transport purposes,you registered the bus,road worthiness, hackney permit and vehicles , insurance,driver licence and your lasdri,after all this has been in place,some group of wayward children that got it wrong with their parents at the earliest stages of their life would turn themselves to agbero awon omo wobe all over the places and they say the youths are the leaders of tomorrow but now agbero are the leaders of tomorrow (Tinubu) the leader of agbero,I pray all this agberos would die screaming.

When you tell someone the truth about them, they tend to explode. Why are you exploding? If all the whole Igbos leave lagos, lagos would be empty with nothing in it.

Has been since Thursday. It wasn't funny. Spent almost 3k on bike from mile 2 to badagry, journey that should cost not more than N700

For those who don't know that route, the problem is not NURTW(agberos). The problem is police. They have checkpoint every 100 meters and collect #100 per vehicle. That is excluding customs that will ground a bus just because they found a passenger in possession of 5kg of Rice.
pointless

Na wa o.

Sometimes, I wonder why the Lagos State Government abandon that route/corridor to those hardened touts acting under the influence of hard drugs that extort money from commercial bus drivers mercilessly.

And there is large pull of touts to recruit from....These same touts metamorphose into thieves at night...yet security agencies don't care.

Despite the heavy extortion on the Badagry expressway, the road is crazily unmotorable.

Our leaders are animals.

What about us, the people who allow them to lead us? Are we equally animals or worse

Our leaders are much more worse than us. They suppress us heavy and kill our voice as many times as we raise it.

Can you lead a protest?

Why do you think that protest is the only way or best way, compared to using available legal and political processes
Re: Extortion: Bus Drivers Protest On Lagos-Badagry Expressway, Commuters Stranded by optm(m): 5:33pm On Mar 07, 2021
These lagos bus drivers are greedy people too . They would increase fare price for the passengers and would not like paying the agbero in proportionate amount to the monies collected from passengers. These agbero's are a neussaince aswell. I mean how's it ok to legalize collecting monies from others with thugs ? Only in nigeria would you find such

True, protest might not be the only way, but protests is one of many ways change can be fought for.

Yes mentioned legal and political processes which I outrightly agree with you, but Nigeria and Nigerians are in a tight situation where we must look into so many places for answers. For example, the Southwest had done everything legal and political in order to end the Boko Haram aka Fulani herdsmen menace in the Region.

All of the legal means and political processes of the Southwest against insecurity in the Region, had it curb and the momentum of crime in the zone?

Abeg, does legality even exist in Nigeria? Everything in Nigeria is rotten and corrupt.

My brother, sometimes gragra dey solve matter wella.

Do you think that all of the legal means and political processes of the south west was done with sincerity of purpose by the leaders? Leaders who are more interested in their 2023 ambitions against Igbo and northern people
Maybe that is why the legal action and political processes are not yielding the desired results? Make you think the thing well bro.

Gragra can solve things for a token response that hardly lasts. Legal action and political processes may take longer, but the results are far reaching and more enduring.
