Are LASTMA Officials Afraid Of Rich Men In Lagos? by AutoJoshNG: 1:28pm On Sep 30, 2016
This 2016 Lexus LX570 which cost about N50 Million in Nigeria was seen cruising on the BRT lane on Ikorodu Road. The surprising thing was all the LASTMA officials on the long stretch of the road pretended like they didn't see the vehicle as it approached them.

Would their reaction have been the same if it were a jalopy car?

[b]Yes they are...

I have seen the two sides of the coin when it comes to Lastma Officials!!!


I was a passenger in a goods delivering van on a certain day, we were at Lekki Expressway and we just worked on the vehicle (Over Heating issues).. We aborted the trip and wanted to return, the street we came out from was just like 100m behind us so the driver decided to use reverse and go back!!

From nowhere, Lastma Officials blocked us and said we're taking 'one-way with style', just imagine!!

We paid 14k before we took our vehicle from their office that day!!! Because it was a van abi




SECOND EXPERIENCE!!!

It was at Oshodi-Apapa Expressway, a Lexus 330 SUV that was still sparkling and in pristine condition then!!

We were coming from Charity and wanted to join the bridge at Oshodi.. But we were in a hurry, so we avoided the airport route and all those bad inner streets!!

We followed one way by the left, our plan was to reach the bus park under bridge and follow that bend the bus drivers normally use to link the bridge, we were almost at the park when a lastma officer stood in front of us!!

We thought the car would be seized, but lo and behold, the officer 'kindly' asked us to please follow the proper route... He told us we were making his job difficult for him and he even helped us clear traffic while we reversed, I swear I was astonished!!!
Now this was because its an SUV right

Only the poor suffer in this country!! [/b]

Half your story wasn't told.... You just like the LASTMA officials turned a blind eye to the escort Hilux in front of it. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. And I hope you are not the one driving because you must have broke a traffic law also and have endangered the lives of other road users by your action. You should have moved a bit faster within regulations park your vehicle very well and take a shot. Did you bother to stop and use just 30seconds demand explanation from the LASTMA officials or call their attention? Thanks anyway for being vigilant but could have done more and better. That is not to say I support the" Big Man's" action o! LASTMA must explain.

Its nothing new.
The law does not apply to the slightly affluent in Nigeria.
It only takes strong will to be rich and still obey the law in Nigeria.

Nigeria is the only country i know that is not at war but people can get away with murder.
I can shoot you in the head right in the middle of the street, hop in my car and get away and nothing will happen.

We have an extremely long way to go.
