Very typical Fashole. Even in heavy traffic, the man sits jejely and read his books. |

I thought the State Governor banned this more than 3 years ago. Why is it still an issue? |

He has said the truth. There is no justification to the use of siren around us. |

He is such a noble creature. Remove the yoke called Tinubu from his neck and he would transform Lagos to London in the next four years. |

pro01: ROMFLAO Really, i was in Abuja couple of weeks back and i saw several govs convoy speed past other cars with a loud horn for people to stee clear of the road. However the same day i saw Fasholas convoy drive past me in traffic and he was reading while his convoy was holed up in traffic. Sirens should only be for Ambulance, police and fire service. Mr president could have a motorcade of 100 cars but please no sirens. I do understand for security reasons outriders are neccessary to clear the traffic for a presidents convoy though. |

Last time i was in Abia, I saw the Gov'nor with his convoy of Police, Bakassi, Soldiers, Armoured tanks and jet fighters. I parked my ride and took cover. **psychological terrorism*** |

Fashola's truly a people-minded governor. He's gradually being bred up to be President 2015. Isn't anybody seeing that or are we waiting for 2014 before he declares ambition? |

I feel Fashola's pain. Friday 10 June in Lagos, the roads were closed all the way from Victoria Island till MMA (yes!), to enable a thoroughfare for Dame Patience Jonathan to get to the airport. I was taking someone to the airport and only escaped being trapped in traffic by the whiskers, cos I was just a few cars ahead of the advance car. |

Sometime last week as well, the IG reportedly came into Lagos and one could just see policemen lining the highways in large numbers and the anthony link road from Maryland to Oshodi expressway was cordoned off. How long that lasted I can't say. Sirens for government officials I can even understand. What about some fat cats, male and female, that for whatever reason have police escorts and still blast sirens? That's just the height. |

They federal people need to stop using the siren as the able Governor said. The federal government is stubborn like Obasanjo. The federal government is leaving her responsibility of working with the Lagos State government to provide more roads for the Lagosians, because at least 10% of Nigeria population are living in Lagos. |

Really Fashola might not be a perfect governor (at least nobody is perfect) but for sure the man is a good. We need more people like him on our corridor of power. |

ALL of the ACN governors use sirens!That is a well known fact. A while back,in Edo state, Oshiomhole was seen caught in traffic on the popular airport road, when He was going to inspect some projects.He quitely came down from his car, walked and asked his aides to help the traffic warden (who was overwhelmed)to clear the traffic while he went on to inspect the road near by. People came out and were thanking him. This was a complete turn around from what people in the state experienced few years back under a tyrannical government of lucky Igbinedion. As far as I am concern, the FG is a disgrace to good governance and wellbeing of Nigerians. Oh have we forgotten so soon how the jammed all networks 'cos someone was taking quake a oath of office? **edited** |

Na wa for una o! Make una come Bayelsa State, where even Sapem Oil Servicing Company, Daewoo C & C, Setraco Construction Company PLC, Commissioners and in some cases LGA Chairmen dey blow siren lyk sai their lyf depend on am. One single Policeman (Driva) alone go dey insyd Patrol Van dey blow siren with heavy speed lyk say oda people no suppose use the same roads wit am. Its often times very pathetic and seriously annoying. Me, I stubborn well well and anytym I hia siren, look mirror, come see say na 1 person dey the car dey blow the siren, I go block am til I reach my junction. |
