Someone keeps saying he developed lagos and I dare to say that lagos is joke when compared to states of other countries of its mate.

Private businesses developed lagos. I've worked in lagos and I know what businesses surfer in that state. My company then couldn't afford to put sign post in their office for fear of extortion as big as they were. Many offices suffer the same fate.

My friend went to lagos to open a shop, he closed down after three months and ran down to abuja due to extortion. What lagos state government is good at doing is ripping businesses apart.


Lagos be like witch, they will wait for u once u open any business they will destroy you with tax upon tax. They are devourers. The most annoying part is that the same people will be shouting EMILOKAN. Tinubu has no plan for NIGERIA other than raising taxes just like they did in lagos. If una like make una vote am na una sabi. Me don japa.

Yeah... The perfect metropolis according to urchins!

Imagine thugs going on strike to protest extortion from bigger and more crooked Thugs!

Yet, y'all were angry with Alaba Market traders for putting up a solid resistance!

Negroes Sha! We just can't seem to get Leadership right.

Dont waste your precious time òn urchins that are jobless, I would say Ambode and Fashola where really innovative but their godfather was just a thug and individuals are the the people generating the money and also the seaport and mma plays an important role there.

I swear

The amount of so called unions at each bus stop are too much.
Where is my money at every bus stop made transportation in Lagos so expensive compared to other states.
You can’t find that in Ondo state, they all have Motor parks and that’s the only place you pay for inter city or town then normal taxis only pay their tickets in the early morning or noon or evening.
It’s only in Lagos, you will pay money for chairman, Chairman’s wife, then afternoon foods money, money for stress, money for everything.

It’s once not every bus stops like Lagos.

It’s madness

You no add security money

They are talking about Lagos you are bringing up South East because of your hatred towards the Igbos..

Let me tell
Lagos is the only state leading in agbero work
Nothing is worst in the whole of South East
The only place you could find them very well is at upper iweka Anambra and they have been banned from operating there...
It's only in Lagos you will see agberos breeding agbero..

Although I agree with you that they can't be compared with Lagos, but those guys have not been banned, or even if they have been banned, they are still operating in Anambra.

I just left Anambra and they are still there. They are one of the main things causing holdup in head bridge... Unlike the ones in Lagos, they even hold BIG STICKS which they use to terrorise motorists

Tinubu and his boys are the reason why public transport is so expensive.

The extortion is too much and the drivers pass the cost to the passengers.

I will advise those drivers to come out and vote for obi.

Don't follow useless people to do Emi lokan.

Tinubu never mean we'll, sanwo olu never mean we'll for Lagos. Those idiots travel out to dubai, London, UK and the rest but they never see agbero collecting free money that never go to the state treasury or local government treasury.
.
Rather they placed this jobless terrorist on the road to extort

Is it a must to join a union or association in a profession?

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.

Opening new business in lagos requires serious capital. Lagos state will collect a lot from you, yet they won't support or protect your business in any way[b]. I'll suggest that you try and open the business somewhere else, when you have a lot of capital to throw away, you can test the waters in lagos state[/b]

Nna meen, shey na my Lagos you destroy so?
Na lie joor, I dey come Lagos come chop the money with una.

No matter the taxations, na d customer go still feel am pass, not the seller.

I'll use 1.5milla to open my beer parlor in Lagos, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it IJN amen!

Egbugbu marks
Back in the old days, Igbo tribe members added Egbugbu signs to faces and other parts of the bodies to mark their people as slaves or free people. Different designs were used depending on the village where the new baby was born.

Tinubu and Oluomo are feeding fat on commercial drivers sweat. No wonder sanwoolu would not sanction Oluomo despite his misdeeds. They are extorting them because of election.

I personally support the strike because we the Passengers are the ones paying this money indirectly.
Imagine Barracks to mile2 (Badagry express) which is #50 naira before is now #400 naira.
Go and verify if you doubt me.
