As long as Lagos has the only functioning port the traffic will continue.. Lagos needs more road network... Other coastal states like Akwa Ibom,delta should be encouraged to have port. |

It is terrible. I am going into full time consulting by end of 2020. God help me. I want to take full control of my life and health. I can't continue with 8 - 5 madness in Lagos. The impact of the accumulated stress would be felt more in your old age not now for those that will get to old age anyway. I use my people that have retired as an example. Most of them are suffering from one debilitating disease or another. |

Why would any sane person want to live in Lagos? Our problems are largely self-inflicted. We suffer needlessly because we fail to engage the power of the Mind and use our critical thinking skills. Why should Lagos be overpopulated when other South-West States can be developed? Why shouldn't there be an efficient rail system linking all South West states so someone living in Ogun State can take a high speed rail to work in Lagos? Why should people continue to chase the non-existent golden fleece in Lagos? The black man has a long way to go intellectually and developmentally. The black man is unthinking and lacks foresight. The black man is not visionary and doesn't see an urgency in the need to develop in all areas. The black man doesn't value time and the dignity, welfare of human and animal life. The black man has many problems he is not willing to use his thinking faculties to solve. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

zcee:sorry River state.. If delta ,Akwa Ibom,Rivers ,bayelsa are all having functioning ports . The traffic in Lagos will reduce and Lagosians will enjoy that state. Nigeria will also prosper but tribalism won't allow that happen.. |

selemo:Why do you people always chant "seaports" as an excuse? Is it everyone living in Lagos, that has earns a living through the seaports? Lagos is a commercial capital, for goodness sake. Does Onne not have a functional seaport? Why hasn't it grown to become as densely populated as Lagos? uuzba: Thank you, o! If other states took the development of their capital and major towns seriously, the influx of people into Lagos would decrease. Look at Ogun state border towns like Alagbado, Sango Otta, Agbara etc. They witness the same heavy influx of traffic, too. Part of it is caused by the population spill from Lagos to those towns. But those areas are poorly planned and tightly packed. The governor of Ogun has not thought of carrying out an urban renewal exercise, in those areas to make it conducive for the residents, and reduce the flow of traffic. |

Ugosample: Thank you for this beautiful analysis! You said it all, and you said it well.... Pato5: Exactly! But the governors of other states are not willing to put in the hard work that is needed to develop their states. Many collect allocations and it disappears into thin air. Others frustrate any private initiative at development because of their petty myopic mindset. May God save us all. |

booscy: Onne port is fully functional. Please don't mislead people. After Tincan, Onne has the next highest volume of shipping traffic in Nigeria. |

Ugosample:Cho cho cho cho.. U just dey talk. What is the work of the govt? Is it not to provide safe environment for business across the nation? Bad things are bound to happen and it's the work of govt to put things in check. So if People flee to Abuja where next will they flee to when abuja becomes unsafe? |

This thread is evidence that we all bleed red. Lagos traffic doesn't care. It takes no prisoners. Everyone here agrees about this - apart from a few professional trolls who tried to muddy the waters with their tribal nonsense. It is a multi-faceted problem - which will need a multi-pronged solution set. Sadly, powerful vested interests and good old fashioned incompetence will make sure the problem remains unsolved - even unto the generation after the next. 3 Likes |
