I wonder why it even took this long for the Lagos government get rid of this menace called Agberos. Infact, they're the same as Bokoharam. The government should introduce a shoot on sight at any NURTW tout. Good riddance.

I hope you know armed robbeRs also have dependants. What's your point exactly?

I agree with them, Fashola is indeed joking.

Fashola is now Babasala.

Are u also saying that BH in the north should be allowed to continue simply because they and their families earn a living from there? Pls check out ur post again.

Godjone: Yoruba ppl av dia name crest on d guness world record. D first eva 2 introduce agberoo in nigeria. D r thugs and at dsame tym ready tools in the hand of political godfathers. .. Shut da 4k fashola afterall, dey made u who u were 2day. Eko oni ba je o!

E-diota, omo iran kiran. U are so stupid for insulting d most civilised people from d black race

Fashola is the best Governor kudos to him

antitpiah: I agree with them, Fashola is indeed joking.

Fashola is now Babasala.

are u sure he is joking?i hope u remember that he is the governor ,the final authority rests with him he has the power to limit or erase the nurtw and dont forget he is experienced he knows what opposition he will be facing and i believe he is battle ready,so dont say he is joking

Did he provide them with another job? If no then fashola did a great mistake because job in nigeria nowadays turn to be the most difficult thing to get especially to the people that have little or no qualification I can see the number of Area boys will soon increase.

What baffles me with Nigerians is that we celebrate corruption. Imagine, there are still fools and dunderheads that are talking in favour of this hoodlums on this thread. What claims on earth can one use to justify agberoism. This criminals are causing more harm than good in any ramification u could look at it. Kudos governor Fashola, may u b d next president of Nigeria

Did he provide them with another job? If no then fashola did a great mistake because job in nigeria nowadays turn to be the most difficult thing to get especially to the people that have little or no qualification I can see the number of jobless and Area boys will soon increase.

1supremo: The man is trying to put the welfare of the people ahead of nepotism and cronyism even if it would lead to a fallout with his predecessor. That, my countrymen, is called principles and we need more of it if Nigeria will not continue to stink.

Gov Fashola had never hidden the fact he wants the best for Lagos and these touts are huge minus for Eko

You think Fashola is exercising his jaws? Ask yourself if this same governor didn’t clean up Oshodi. Ask yourself if Lekki residents are not paying their toll gate fees after smoking tear gas. Ask yourself if the BRT buses have not displaced molue .Finally, ask the army officer BRF caught desecrating a BRT lane how it feels to salute a civilian on the front page of virtually all Nigerian newspapers

Fashola... I am very proud of you. This is the fruit and evidence of an educated man, that put's to work for his own people, the laws, the way of life he is opportune to see outside of Nigeria, that made those people superior to us in our mind. Thank you for having the interest of the masses at heart.

GudluckIBB: Fashola is gradualle becoming Something else.The other day he single handedly areested a General in the Army for taking BRT land and now,he is planning to send thugs back to the street to become Armed Robbers.He is also planning to send Lagosians to jail even if u are chewing Gum while driving.
I just hope I didn't make a mistake at the polls in 2011?

No, your electoral choice wasn't a mistake. You voted for a man with the people's interest and safety at heart. I see a safer Lagos when these policies fall in place.

what sort of job?why dont they learn an handwork?or is goverment suppose to provide emplyment for everyone?can u tell me how many percentage of nigerians are goverment workers?didnt he establish a free vocational training for them?why didnt they go?so they should continue consituting a menance to the society just because they are lazy?pls stop suppporting mediocrity and start thinking of positive change if fashola pulls this one off then he has done more than tinubu,do u remember what idiagbon said when he came to power let me remind u,he said there is nothing wrong with nigeria more than indiscipline once everyone is disciplined everyother aspects will pick up,
in the developed country there are rule nd u must be disicplined that is why and how they have a working goverment

my brother pls can u see now that it is not gej that is nigeria problem nigeria themselves dont want positive change pls help me ask him the general that was arrested was he supposed to be driving on brt ?or if he went abroad will he violate that sort of law?the point is nigerians are generally lawless we are used to doing things at will and when someone wants to change us we start fighting him,let the agberos turn to armed robbery and get caught nd when they get to court they should tell the court they have n job.i still cant imagine ppl are supporting agberos and all these unin rascals collecting money for nothing nd doing nothing while at the same time harrassing driverrs and conductors that are shouting and sweating in the sun.if that is the kind of mentlity nigerians have by supporting rascality and holiganism them why are we complaining about gej?nigeria has a long long long and very looooooooooooong way to go

honestly,i find it difficult to believe that,someone like you still lives among human beings.
believe me,the Animals' kingdom would havee been a better home for you!!

U need brain surgery.

If Fashola eventually succeeds in getting these agbero off the road, hope another party won't use them in 2015 with promise of returning them back to the streets? Thumbs up to the action governor.
There are some agbero here trying to protect their job.

stillme:

U need brain surgery.

he needs more ,he needs deliverance and healing from mental disorder

PDP must be taking this chance to woo dis guys on their side

ayobase: My question is what are the said ''thugs'' gonna be doing when they are wiped off from the roads.
Is Fashola planning to take care of them, or chase them away to Ibadan?
Though, this is a good development for Lagos state. With NURTW, transportation is been made easier and more flexible. I gez we will recover from it with time, just like Abuja and motorcycles event.
I hope this BAN doesn't cause MAYHEM!
And if successful, Fashola will never be forgotten in the history of Lagos state!

most of them were drivers and conductors in the first place. They just return to their former work. it was the cheap money they get that brought them to this.

Find them jobs? Who told you Lagos people work? They are busy doing Agbero, Area Boys, Area Girls, and what not. In Lagos, most positions, in practically all sectors, are held by people from other States.

gboss4sure: PDP must be taking this chance to woo dis guys on their side

well u maybe right but if this policy works out the ppl will support fashola and not AC ,fashola will become some sort of brand that symbolises positive change which will make him come in collision with tinubu,the way things are going tinubu and fashola are likely to square up again

It's very obvious that NURTW was subjected 2 Tinubu in his era N Fashola 2 Tinubu + 70 percents (my stats) of votes comes 4rm d touts. I'm scared 2 run a conclusion 2 this facts. Can someone help me spell it??

my brother there is no long thing about this issue if fashola wants to do it he can he has the ability,capability and capacity to do it and carry it out the only thing i dont know is if he has the political will to see that this policy is implemented

u re right but assuming he and de oda acn guys fall out which party will he now join?

What is all this silly talk about NURTW put Fashola there? NURTW might have played a role in putting Fashola but so did every other regular Lagosian which constitute the Majority of the people.NURTW is just about 1% of Lagos population. Sometimes I'm amazed at the ignorant talk that comes from peoples mouths

gboss4sure:

well pdp will be the most obivious choice fashola is creating an image and pedigree that is bigger than any party lesser than pdp or acn,but he is what i call a lone ranger that is why he will always need the support of plitical godfathers

Brf is d current gov,he has d powers,he calls d shot,if he can deal wit an army on brt lane,then who r dos riff raffs called nurtw,
