Govt checks/sanctions (if any) need to go strong on these trucks....they are fast becoming death-agents!

That law won't work in Lagos of today and even of yesterday (Fashola's era)

Only containers(20 & 40 ft tonne) were affected by the law and not trucks, tankers and co.

Now let me tell you why the law can't work now.

1.) Clearing your goods at the Apapa and Tin can ports is so cumbersome that an exercise which shouldn't last 2-4 hrs actually lasts more than that (As you are battling to clear your goods, don't forget that other people are also waiting on the line to clear theirs. That delay of yours will spiral to others).

After all the delays and you eventually get to clear your goods. To exit the ports is another serious task because If you don't settle at the gate, they won't let you out. After they allow you exit the gate, then you will encounter serious traffic jam because of the bad state of the roads.

From my narration above, can you envisage all the hours of delay? And you ask them to move from only 9pm - 6am. That is just impossible!!

Before that law can be carried out out down to the letter, infrastructure has to be in place but unfortunately we don't have that infrastructure at the moment.

And if you forcefully want to carry out that law, this is what will happen.

- All the flat bed trucks (container) will line up on Ikorodu road therby causing a total lock down of the state thereby causing serious traffic jam like they did some months back (if you live in Lagos, you should remember that incident). And trust me, LASG will never want to see that kind of traffic again in their life.
