if you don't move around Lagos in public bus you won't understand what the drivers are passing through, I have said it before and would say it again THE REASON IT SEEMS CRIME IS ON THE LOW IN LAGOS WAS COS THE GOVERNMENT LEGALIZED IT AS TAX AND LEVY USING agbero, thugs and urchins as collectors, if you see what these guys earn every day and the they spend money you will realize we were been legally Robbed every day. when they extort drivers passengers pay for it.
You are very correct,these thugs, agberoes Rob every lagosian everyday.. imagine the number of danfos in Lagos and passengers and you will know how much they extort and funny thing is,they are of no use,help whatsoever to the helpless drivers they forcefully extort. Worst thing is,these boys are everywhere in Lagos, virtually at every bus stop,every road,even streets making the whole Lagos so like a eyesore

It is not surprising that Lagos has failed to digitalis this aspect of tax collections? It's a means to empower thugs and crooks for election purpose

This is worst in Anambra. The Agberos in Onitsha will collect over 60% of what you make daily. The driver, owner of the vehicle and the vehicle go sure the remaining 40%. It is that bad.

Remember, Anambra has the highest numbers of Agberos in this Country.

Hope obidients that are abusing MC Oluomo are reading this facts. Not politics.

The truth is agberos are everywhere in this country with their peculiarities from state to state.

But some people talk as if agbero start and end in Lagos.

Let's always be objective and fair in our comments. No be only Lagos o, agbero full everywhere for this country.

When you ask where will tinubu get his block votes from,they will tell you south west,ask them which part of south west ? Is it osun that is in control of adeleke he dealt with or oyo in control of mankinde he ensure he will never rule oyo state or Lagos where the poor are complaining of excessive taxation?

Agberos down here, I dare say are in their millions buoyed by erstwhile Okada men who have joined them lately.

This is something I so much hate about Lagos and why I won't want someone like Tinubu to win.
Why can't lagos government be in charge of collecting tax themselves instead handing over it to Touts completely. Omooooooo
When Tinubu wins, all of us will be paying Tax to MCOluomo and his boys.

Which state do you live ? Complain about the agberos in the state you live. The whole of Lagos main land have agberos in every junction. Onistha and Abuja have agbero too. Complain about agbero in the state you live. Stop shifting the goal post. That's how you invite demon to your life due to useless affiliation.
