honestly. I find it hard to believe politicians nowadays. same way the incumbent told us he was going to make a naira equal a dollar. just vote for your conscience. as the spirit leads. don't believe their manifesto.

The difference between us is, you find it hard to believe them while I don't even have to think of believing them at all. Voting in Nigeria is turning to be an effort without results.

Lagos is a one of APC govt most robust wallet.
Lagos could have been much better if not for the single party system. Just look at the federal level and how PDP went to sleep for 4 tenures.
I don't understand your post but seriously we are being shortchanged at all levels . Lagos has received over 35bn $ in 20 years .what have they to show for this ?
Is it this road repairs ....?
Lekki epe road we are paying for it ...ikoyi bridge we paid for it
Gbagada general Hospital is PPP
So what exactly have Lagos government done in 20 years that one can look to ? So much pilfering of the resources
Both Federal and Lagos have been shortchanging the citizens
It's all fraud and Massive one at that

The choice to continue to pay toll on that road and the choice to pass freely belongs to Lagosians alone.

2019 is your time to choose.

Look at the traffic now that we’re paying and the road is smooth ... now imagine the traffic when we’re not paying and the road is left bad.

Eradication of tolls is not the best way to go
There are tolls everywhere In developed countries too

I would be more comfortable saying
I will be accountable for the tolls collected on our roads

Agbaje should find something more tangible to campaign with and not hatred towards Tinubu

From Lekki, you're going to Shoprite, you pay toll fee, you forget something at home, you pay another fee....you go back again, you pay another fee....APC is simply wicked


Dismantling the toll gate isn’t the issue, it’s more about how the road is maintained and the revenue is utilized. Also there is an alternative route option available.

My brother JIMI, I really wish you could win this Lagos poll come 2019, to disrupt this evil dynasty set up by that ugly looking creature that the whole Afonja tribe are scared of.














Wishing you luck JIMI AGBAJE

Just the way Buhari told us he will remove subsidy.abi?
AutoJoshNG:
The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Lagos State, Jimi Agbaje, has vowed to remove the Lekki Toll Gate, if voted into power in 2019.

Agbaje described the fee being collected at the toll gate as illegal.

The PDP guber candidate noted that though the toll gate was built by a concessionaire, it had since been bought over by the Lagos State Government.

He wondered why residents were still being forced to pay tolls to pass.

Agbaje was responding to the one-hour toll-free passage recently given to all motorists by his All Progressives Congress counterpart, Babajide Sanwo-Olu.




Agbaje said, “Unfortunately, the toll gate is opaque because no one knows its financial records. So, asking people on your campaign trail and others to pass without paying for just one hour is absurd and regrettable.

“Good road is a fundamental right of citizens and we promise to deliver on this and many other things.

“At the moment, most Lagos roads are impassable because of their poor condition. Now, motorists are compelled to pay heavily for passage.

“How about the so-called alternative routes? Ideally, government should have provided alternative routes to the Lekki Toll Gate, but the available alternate route is in a terrible shape, so everybody is forced to use the toll gate and pay.

“Therefore, yesterday’s drama by the governorship candidate of the APC is a farce. Nobody was deceived by the party’s action which also smacks of disrespect and bondage.”

But are the so called tolls everywhere also not accountable like Lagos own ? Oga, Agbajes main problem is not tolling but lack of accountability which is a basic requirements everywhere - remember he recentlly challenged them about domesticating FOI law.

Another reason why this man can never set his foot into Lagos state government house in his entire lifetime. If I am to advice him, this man should just contest for senate.

You see what I say about black man being cursed?

Look at this exhibit right here and study "it".

Someone proffers a solution to a problem that affects everyone, yet the exhibit above belittles the man calling out said solution that would actually be a boon to it.

Study this thing above, in it may lie the keys to unraveling the mysteries behind the retrogression of the black man.

It is not about the alternative route. The road does not deserve to be tolled.

It is wickedness to support the govt on their wicked acts for partisanship's sake.

The good of the majority should be prime. People before party

Jimi is right on this one. I don't think that toll is needed any longer.

If they won't demolish the toll, at least reduce the fee or make the alternative routes better.

They can also make the revenues more transparent, so that those paying the toll will know what it's being used for.

Please what issue will it cause? Have they not realised their money? Do you know how much they make per hour? Where did Sanwo-Olu get the money to pay for a free passage for one hour? Do you know how many vehicle move along on hourly basis?

Why is the state govt shielding the deal from the populace.

I tell you, Nigerians are the number one problem of Nigeria.

Those company you called private companies are the companies of the "thieving politicians".

Is Alpha beta a private company without politician influence?
Is LCC a private company without politician influence?
You can as well call Oriental Hotel a private company but we know who controls them all.

You may hate the messenger, but the message is on point

That road has existed since Adam slept with Eve. A government expanded it and started collecting toll till forever.... How does that make any sense?

Ikoyi link bridge is appropriate for tolls, but not an existing road.

Oops.... You haven't been to Lagos sef grin
