Lagos Traffic Jams Disappear But This Isn't Good News For Nigeria - BBC by Godszilla: 6:46am On Sep 04, 2023 |
Lagos feels different, the boisterous - often chaotic - energy that drives Nigeria's commercial centre has been subdued by the removal of a fuel subsidy that had kept the price of petrol low for decades in Africa's largest economy.https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-66652771.amp 8 Likes 2 Shares

The entire nation got changed. You can travel from Lagos to Kaduna or Abuja now without experiencing a single holdup. It has never ever been this way before now 133 Likes 10 Shares |

Yeah raise the fuel price to 2k per litter so only celebrities and politicians will have their cars on the road. That will translate to no hold up and minimal pollution Idiots 265 Likes 25 Shares |

Quality of life in Nigeria keep going down the drain and people getting miserable everyday. Even some rich middle class are beating down their standards. Many families now ration food. Only God knows the number of pupils and students who will drop out or enroll in public school this September. I even saw on Facebook a post where a corn seller sells half roasted corns so people can afford them. Wtf. Four years is a long ride ooo. I read this morning a man died of starvation in kano. Lord which way 38 Likes 3 Shares |

This bustling city of an estimated 20 million people is quieter, but for once that is not a good thing. I bolded the above for emphasis sake, that's because as a people, the polices of those in power always come lopsidedly against the common man. Who uses those buses and private cars to hustle? You and me! Like the article stated, we all expected that the subsidy and economic changes would be done in phases. Sadly, Lagos epitomizes what the whole country is feeling at the moment. People are basically trekking everywhere. The decision to even leave your house costs 1k alone. Which way for us? IT'S NOT A QUESTION OF MANDATES ANYMORE. WETIN YOU DEY CARRY THE MANDATE DO? Before you quote me, please consider that I'm a Nigerian first before any party or political affiliation. 20 Likes 1 Share |

I believe we have the right to decide what policy we should use as a country without BBC interference. The subsidy removal must have wrecked British and America that they want to use their useless media platform to criticise the policy... We called them during EndSars but they removed to interfere..... So why are they coming to take paracetamol on our head? 10 Likes |
