African Democratic Congress (ADC) gubernatorial candidate in Lagos State, Mr. Muyiwa Fafowora, has pledged to fix the perennial traffic gridlock in Lagos State within a few months if elected into office.

Fafowora made the pledge in a chat with journalists at the weekend, stressing that Lagosians have suffered so much in terms of loss of man hour and businesses.

He said the time had come to give a new lease of life for the people, even as he berated the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration, which he said, had been in control of the state for many years, but had failed to tackle the menace of traffic gridlock which had led to huge losses of business across the state.

The candidate maintained that lack of vision on the part of government and developers who built tank farms in Ibafo without proper planning, was responsible for the traffic gridlock in Tin Can and Apapa axis.

He added: “If you know Tin Can Port in 70s, there was no development around that place. So, in the Ibafo area, trucks will park there, pick up consignments in the Tin Can Port, take them to various destinations.

“But, when we began to experience petroleum shortages, developers went to Ibafo and turned them into tank farms. There is no more access for trailers that want to pick up in the ports, which is lack of vision.

“Most people will not know that Kirikiri was an island, because when they were developing the maximum prison, government knew people were going to do life imprisonment.

“They did not want them to be in Ikoyi prison or the old prison on Broad Street. They were taking prisoners there by boats, so that even if the prisoners wanted to escape, there would not be anywhere to escape to.”

Ok

you are jonzing

Pls, who is this

Lol.
Bad campaign talk.Lagos traffic cant be fix.You can only manage it.Lagos is too congested,except their wont be "danfos" anymore.

Lagos need other channels of transportation.

Good railway system.

Good waterway system.

Evacuation of Tinibu boys(Agbero).

Evacuation of road side sellers.

Non-partisan of Oba of Lagos.

How will you fix it?

mumu. this people thinks we are dumb

Talk is cheap. As long as the roads are bad and lagosians prefer thier cars for show off. There is no hope

Penultimate election year, the year of promises.

You can only reduce traffic not solve it entirely.
Let him go find another manifesto point.

I'm not an APC person but even blind folks can see that Sanwo-Olu is running against himself, No opposition. The guy is just about everywhere; everyday day you'll see people rocking "Sanwo-Olu, Sanwo Eko" T-shirts, I've only read of even PDP's Jimi Agbaje on Nairaland.

How? We don't want blank promises.

APC has Lagos on lock down.

He doesn't have to wait to become Governor to proffer solutions though.

Apple iTunes gift cards $10-$100 denominations needed. Rate is dope!!

It will be easier to defeat boko haram than to fix Lagos traffic jams. It's not about personnel, it's about having too many vehicles on the road at the same time.

Nigerians politicians are some bunch of lunatics without vision and they think the masses are kindergarten pupils.

I will fix this, I will fix that... Ask buhari how far about Boko and job.

Some gullible Lagosians will actually believe that. Even the whole gods in your village cannot do it in 100 years
