Was in Lagos last two months... Traffic at Volts and Costain nearly made me suffocate. Right now going to Lagos scares me.

I spent two weeks in Lagos, the stress I experienced within those period; I've never seen such here in Abuja for the past years. I was on traffic for whole five hours just to cross over to Agbara that's not up to twenty minutes drive.

Suffering dey that state.

I spent 20hours on traffic at Lagos-Ibadan expressway. I was coming from OAU after my exams to Lagos on December, 2006. During the period, Redeemed church was having a crusade at their prayer camp and the whole buses coming from different parts of Nigeria jammed together at Redeemed camp on Lagos Ibadan expressway. It was a serious traffic and no mobility of cars and vehicle throughout the day.

Our bus got to Redeemed camp on Lagos Ibadan expressway by 1pm and we left that same spot by 10:30am the next morning. I can never forget the travel experience on that day. Because all passengers slept in their buses overnight on the expressway. Street hawkers began to sell pure water at 20 naira and bottle water at 100 naira in the night.

Traffic begins to ease when government sent Nigeria army the next morning. Trust Nigeria Army, they did a very good job compared to Federal Road Safety Corp.

Rumokoro, Two cars got spoilt in the middle of the road. We wasted an hour there cry

Meanwhile my uncle picked a fight with me not knowing how evil I can be. I'm going to steal his phone and save my two numbers as Jenny Sweet and Naomi big Brezz, then repeatedly call him and hang up at 3 am.

I'll let his wife fight him for me cheesycheesy I dont fight with my elders.

While driving, 8 hours. I left surulere in Lagos around 4pm but got home (Idimu-Lagos) around 11:50pm. I think it was around 2006 or so, I can't remember. Traffic on Ikorodu road, then Traffic around Ikeja GRA, then traffic on Lagos Abeokuta road, then Akowonjo traffic. Before I faced Idimu-Egebda traffic because of the road repair that was going on on the road back then.

While traveling in a bus? Like 14 hours. Lagos to Anambra, which should have been just 7 hours. Ore traffic was bloody. We left Lagos around 8am and got to Onitsha around 10am. I had to sleep in the park till the next day. That was back in 2007, during my NYSC.
