Abdullahi said he remembered Nigeria when he saw the cars waiting at the traffic.

Below is what he shared on Facebook;

It's 2:30 am here. I just looked through my window, then I saw these two cars waiting for the traffic lights to give them the green light. Then I remembered my country Nigeria and asked myself :

When will we get to this level of maturity and discipline?

It's 2:30 am here. I just looked through my window, then I saw these two cars waiting for the traffic lights to give them the green light. Then I remembered my country Nigeria and asked myself :


When will we get to this level of maturity and discipline?

What's your brother the president doing about it?

hahaha....maybe when we start witnessing snow in Lagos...cos na only iceberg fit stop us

Maturity n discipline in Nigeriar begins with u,Mr Honourable.

We will get to this level when you,i,politicians,Nigeria security agencies and everyone decide to change for good.

Dear Aboki, Nigeria will get to that level of maturity and discipline the day your Northern fellows decides to allow the country develop and stop their evil deeds like terrorism (Fulani Herdsmen and Boko Haram) ...

..it is quite unlikely that Nigeria will attain a similar status in the near future with the current geo-political structure.
Just being realistic!

There will be maturity and discipline, when people in your position show good example.

Start first, when you stop using siren vans driven by reckless armed escorts

I obey traffic light anytime of the day...where will I be driving to by 2am? Maybe from night vigils but no traffic light in those routes...

If you are even waiting .others will cruise past you.


Let the change start from the top.....those in authorities when they are driving,do they obey the traffic light?

The just make noise with their siren and long queue of jeeps and Hilux ...driving rough and recklessly as if other road users are not human.

TELL THIS ABOKI TO COME TO ENUGU...YOU WILL SEE CORRECT DISCIPLINE. THERE IS NO CITY IN NIGERIA WITH PEOPLE AS DISCIPLINED AS ENUGU CITY.

PICTURE - Enugu legendary rolling green hills at 2am

When will we get to this level of maturity and discipline?

Educate your Almajiris first..
Only then can we give you estimates.

Let's wait till the end of time and see what happens

If we get there LASTMA will no longer have job. We're ok like this to keep some people in their jobs lol

Is that the only thing your mediocre mind could notice?

Dint u see their road
Or u try not to notice how everywhere was well lit.
But u choose to talk about sanity
Tell me why I should be sane in this unsane part of d world

Those traffic lights also have security cameras that work unlike the manner of some

Try it in Nigeria and get robbed.

Idiot, in among your foreign trips, did you take time to ask how much their lawmakers earn and try to implement here in Nigeria?

Did you ask them weather their government officials make needless trips and squander forex in the process.

Would his long convoy obey a simple traffic warder in Nigeria, or would they even pound him join for lack of respect

The political elites are the problem, when they lead the change, the citizenry would follow.

Any other noise from them is hogwash

See this hypocritical ABOKI as he is he's not disciplined ooh

Obeying traffic lights is a must in my country and in many sensible countries. It's only in Nigeria that people are stubborn and backward

2:30am, u no dey sleep no lie o... which kind spirit dey use u ?

dukie25:

What's your brother the president doing about it?

So what are you doing about it?

You expect bubu to divide himself into thousands of copies just to control traffic in Nigeria?

Obey traffic rules, son. Bubu and gej have nothing to do with it

Obeying traffic lights is a must in my country and in many sensible countries. It's only in Nigeria that people are stunborn and backward.

Police and taxi drivers will never stop.

We cant get there.. It is an Insult to animals if Nigerians are called animals..
Animals are more organised and more civil than Africans..
