No fucking cap.

Multiply that times 5. That's 20 hours a week. It will be more for those that also work weekends.

Now come multiply 20 times 52 (number of weeks in a year) you will get approximately 43 days. That's a month and thirteen days you spend in traffic in a year, as a Lagosian.

And that's just on average. Choke

After spending 6 hours in traffic, you will think you're the most hardworking man in the world.

Realistically 40% spend that 4hrs daily

Cos 35% or more spend about 5-6hrs daily

(those living outside Ikeja/Island but working there would leave house by 6am or before and get to office by 8. When closing by 5 or 6 will definitely get home by 9 or 10pm approximately spending 5-6hrs on the road daily.


Lagos is one crazy city to live and work.

That’s true. And to tell you the Lagos Tinubu built. I Laughed. I remembered back then on my wedding day, I spent almost 6hours inside traffic, imagined going back home from Ikoyi to ogombo, Lekki peninsula scheme 11. I almost faint, baba can’t make love to his wife, I just jejely do one round. And slept.

I don’t know what my tribe Yoruba’s are turning to nowadays, are we not a most accommodating tribe in Nigeria again?

As at 2015 Lagos population was 15 millions, in 2022 it is around 23 millions. This is about 5 countries population from another angle. And the landmass is a little over 3000 square meter. The population density is outrageous and too much for a smallest state like Lagos. The infrastructure will quickly worn out, the pressure will be too much.

Every other states need to wake up, Lagos is carrying the burden of over 30 states in the country. If anything should ever happen to Lagos, then Nigeria is in trouble. Reason we can't give someone who never had a record of managing 100 people on a positive project to test run his capacity.

Unfortunately, only APC can still produce the Cheif Executive Officer of the state because they already have a structure that build the leadership capacity of the next successor of every current governor.

Lagos must not fail
Lagos must triumph
And Lagos remain a Yoruba Land.



Your foolishness has been compounded. Do not be called a compound fool.

Create deap and well licenced Sea ports in other regions and watch the traffic decimate drastically.
Secondly, Site industries out of Residential areas


They know what to do but wickedness won't let them. They don't want to decongest Lagos to avoid losing revenue . Evil people. Tell me a country as big as Nigeria in this world where their sea ports are concentrated in one location. This is the type of Lagos some fools say their drug master built.

Lagos? God forbid abeg... Between Ibeju Lekki and CMS or Oshodi, (that's quite some distance though) but you'll spend nothing less than 6-7 hours.

Honestly I don't like to live in Lagos even though I was born and bred there

Exactly, been on the road since 4.21pm and reach home like 10.45pm, I was tired and even vomited while on the road.

Truth be told, exactly as you viewed it. You can’t be so exhausted when getting home and still expecting to perform your duties, is not possible. This is how many home marriages failed, cos of one them can’t keep up. Money is important to keep up your family, you have to work no matter what, and if you can’t another issues would set in.

The only way the traffic madness in Lagos can go down is to decentralise development in Nigeria. Nigeria is terribly plan.

Only God knows how terrible Lagos traffic would have been if Babangida hadn't moved the capital of Nigeria to Abuja.

In other words, almost everyone living in Abuja today would have been struggling for space in Lagos which is even the smallest state in the country.

It was the Gideon orkah coup of 1990 that made Babaginda rush to Abuja as Lagos was already overcrowded and less safe..

I recall a family friend was leaving home 4:00am and comes home till about 10:55pm, he never grew up with son. One day, he came home early and sat in the parlour when he over heard the son asking who is the uncle in the parlour. He resigned the following month despite the huge pay and benefits.

It was based on security reason, they argued that it is easily susceptible to attack, throw the water unlike Abuja, this was before drone came to the picture
