Look at people commenting, this shows that many have not seen the walls outside Nigeria
Go to advanced countries in the EU(from Experience and still Experiencing) , citizens pay for "HighWay Ticket" also known as the about to be implemented "Road Tax" here in Nigeria.
In these countries, if you want to travel to another city or state within the country by car, you will have to pay for the proposed "HighWay Ticket"

Construction and maintenance of the High Way aint free, people! You gats to pay! That's how its done!
You are a fool. Sorry to say it before you spoil my fast. No vex

Despite all the taxes the masses still dey suffer. More taxes on the already complaining masses is not the answer because the same tax people /politicians will steal the money. What we need is concrete fight against corruption.

Bro, i do understand the situation in Nigeria, honestly.
Sincerely, the problem is not just paying the Tax, the problem we are facing is Job creation and increment of the minimum wage.
If all these are implemented and the minimum wage is increased, then we should have no problem paying tax!
now you are talking from a Nigerian perspective.

The National Road Fund and the National Road Authority are they synonymous or conglomerates? I Think the right thing to be done should be passing the National Road Authority (NRA) bill into law as obtained in other part of the world. If Ghana should have Road Authority, what is Nigeria doing? One Minister who is a lawyer will tell you to strengthen FERMA which implies strengthening corruption because he has ulterior motive and do away with National Road Authority.We might not understand the future benefits of the NRA. I know they are enormous at a long run. All the levies aforementioned, all falls under the Road Authority bill . This is not the time you tell Nigerians about superimposed levies rather look for palliatives to cushion the pains in the land. I will suggest the senate to visit National Road Authority bill and incorporate the tolling system, fuel levy and other ancillary levies that constitute the Road fund into the NATIONAL ROAD AUTHORITY and is as simple as ABC and pass it into law in earnest for the good of the Country's Highways to eliminate funding bottle necks of these Road Assets. Mr. Senate President, Sen. Dr. BuKola Saraki, Pls ask the sponsor of the Bill, National Road Authority Sen. Kabiru Gaya to revisit the bill during one of the plenary session for onward passage. we Nigerians are yearning for this bill to be passed. Thank you as you do!

You that has traveled out, your passing more wrong information than those that haven't. Please mention those countries...... Besides, don't you think the spending power of the Pple in those countries were considered before implementing such ideas?

which wrong information? you are part of the people that will stay in Nigeria and be giving people in Nigeria wrong impressions about the western world.
Like i said in one of my comments above, The Government should focus more on JOB CREATION and the INCREMENT OF MINIMUM WAGE, when all theses are put into implementation, we as citizens shouldn't find it a problem to pay our Taxes where its needed!

I think the Nigerian problem is that most people don't want to pay tax and want the government to function, how do they continue to generate revenue. Yes, the country might still embezzle it but let's learn to play our parts and from there, we will have the fight in us to ask how our money is being spent

Well said!

Interesting

The toll fee excludes roads with Public-Private-Partnership arrangement.

If this bill becomes law, all road users, which includes: trailer of goods(products and produce); trailer truck of refined products(kerosine, diesel, petrol, cooking gas,among others); Transport companies and Private cabs would charge more on fares which would mean all round increase in price of goods, food products, services.

This bill would have more effect than just increase in petroleum products.

This bill would lead to all round increase in all we pay for in this country.

Revolution is necessary

You are the fool here, the biggest one!, because there is no country that isn't corrupt...its just the level of corruption that differs.
Nigeria's level of corruption is higher than most other countries of the world. The country i reside in, most citizens complain of their government being corrupt. So you need to stop feeling and thinking that most other advanced countries are saints!
