Lagos state gov saw the need to construct a bridge on a federal waterway to ease the traffic in the state, built the bridge and tolled the bridge after completion. Lagosians have the option to either use the longer existing route freely or use the shorter newly constructed route. Already, Lagos gov has successfully reduced the traffic on the old route, such that citizens that don't care about the tolling of the new bridge won't pass the old one, and the fact that many Lagosians are always in haste means many will go for the tolled bridge, leaving the old for the common Lagosians. Thereby splitting the traffic. What has the federal government been doing all these years that it was obvious that a bridge is needed on that waterway to ease traffic? If the federal government had constructed the bridge, will the Lagos state gov go ahead to toll the bridge? Looks like the federal government is discouraging the state government in taking up responsibilities that they(fg) are incompetent of. The FG shouldn't have mentioned anything related to the bridge, because it is their incompetent @ss that Lagos government is saving. No sane human will pass through or see the bridge and won't appreciate the brain behind it. In short the Federal government is envious of Lagos state. 47 Likes

Were mani FG eleyi ke! So the bridge should be removed or the toll fee should stop? Why can't FG refund the cost of constructing the bridge and stop the tolling? They better call kung-lao to include that in the money he want to borrow fron liu-kang. Can't just wait for that 2015. 13 Likes |

personally I see no reason why Lagos state after collecting revenue from the FG, revenue from tax(companies and individuals] can't afford to build a toll free bridge for Lagosians. why then do we have a government? solely to collect revenue? 11 Likes |

Gosh, many people have comprehension problem (that is what happens when your objectivity is blinded). See the way they are castigating the FG as if it was the FG that sued the Lagos state government. THE FG IS ALSO A DEFENDANT IN THE CASE. This is not a FG vs LG case. People please read with understanding. 5 Likes |

Ok, FG should refund LASG and start the toll-collection. So sad. By the way, LASG we need more bridges don't mind FG. |

yang:u shld ask why england, whom her citizens pay as much as 40% in tax still pay tolls for bridges. Most times u guys talk without reasoning! The simple reason for tollin is 1. To discourage congestion on the new bridge 2. Free space for the old lane 3. Collect more cash from the rich who are not complaing anyway 4. Use the same cash to provide free amenities for u poor Id!ots that evade taxes and still want free things!!! 16 Likes |

I appreciate Fashola for the projects so far in lagos. However, my question is why build these projects then toll us for them after paying our taxes. So my question is did he used his personal money to build these projects? And if it was a loan is he going to payback with his personal money? Why do our government carryout their responsibility to the people and yet enslave the people? Good roads are the responsibilities of the government to its people. The peoples responsibility is to pay tax.unfortunately in lagos the people pay tax yet they are tolled 1 Like |
