The Toll gate is a welcomed idea provided the money won't be embezzled but rather used for its primary objective.

But my country people (politicians) no go gree.....they would rather grow fatter with the money

What does Nigeria do with her oil money?
By Otuekong Favour
Nigeria currently exports approximately 2million barrels of
crude oil daily at $60 per barrel, which translates into
$120million daily.
Nigeria produces over 2billionscf of gas per day, at $2.25 per
MMBtu.
Natural gas is measured in the international market with
British thermal units, MMBtu. Thus, 1000 cubic feet of natural
gas is equal to 1.037millionBtu, whereas one Btu of natural
gas according to Bloomberg Commodities is currently at
$2.25. Therefore, 2billionscf is tantamount to over 2trillionBtu,
which if multiplied by $2.25, amounts to hundreds of billions
of Dollars.
These prices do not include the fact that prices of
commodities fluctuate in the international market, as natural
gas went as high as $4 per MMBtu in 2018, while crude oil
prices soared over $75 sometime in 2018.
Now Nigeria has 49% stake in NLNG, 55% and in some cases
60% in every crude oil production in the country.
What about our internally generated revenue?
In 2018 alone, Customs generated N5trillion, FIRS N3trillion,
Nimasa N20billion, even non-revenue generating agencies like
JAMB, WAEC etc, claimed they'd generated billions last year.
What does Nigeria do with all these money, apart from
funding extravagant lifestyle of elected and appointed
politicians?
Yet a greater percentage of Nigerians are poverty-stricken,
with no access to potable water, electricity, reliable healthcare
etc.

Recurrent expenditure and debts. That is where all the money goes at all levels of government from the Feds to the local government. And with more MDA's under this dispensation and the new minimum wage, the average citizen is slaving for the welfare of government people. Something is bound to give.

Restructuring is the only civil way out.

Don't mind them. In a few months President Buhari will have equalled the tenure length of Goodluck Jonathan as President and CEO then the reality check will hit and all the excuses will vaporise and mad resentment will arrive the doorsteps of Aso Rock. The kettle is boiling slowly.

This PDP is an anti-progress party. In responsible countries, road users pay toll without complaining.

We cannot claim to want development without making sacrifices.

Shut up !!!! Are you aware that when the tolls where removed a road tax of 1.50k was added to every litre of petrol?

Una done come with this welcome idea talk without thinking ..are you aware that when the tolls where removed a road tax of 1.50k was added to every litre of petrol bought to replace the revenue from the road tolls? Are you aware ? Why not ask them why they have not used that money to repair the roads instead of welcoming every useless idea

PDP brought this nation to this mess in the first place, if they performed so wonderfully, Nigerians would not have voted them out of power in the first place. All they concentrated on was looting.
so what's your point here? That they should restore the toll gates demolished by the pdp govt cos of the fraud discovered in the system? The military put up the toll gates and another military in a civilian attire now wants to bring it back and you're there jubilating? O lagbaraoo. Must they unleash suffering on the poor masses to pay the minimum wage? Suffering is a norm among our youths

The question is, will it be used judiciously?

Can't all our leaders slash their emoluments by 50% and use it to construct roads Is it only the masses that makes sacrifices

Nonsense. APC has clear majority is both Houses at the National Assembly, therefore the government does not need PDP support or otherwise to pass necessary laws and do what it (APC led government) needs to do to move the country forward.

PDP and its supporters can go and die.

However, because successive government have failed the people, this has made the people not to trust government again. But, I trust Buhari. I am a Buharist. I stand with Buhari.
There's nothing wrong with being a Buharist, but you should be a human first, there's nothing in your comment that argues or suggest this is a good idea, don't be a complacent YES-MAN, learn to question what you don't understand.

People forget things so easily in this nation. Shame to all the people supporting thieves in this country. Big shame. Making good use of the tolls is what we shoud be talking about. Not blind wailing.

All of you are just empty ..when the tolls were removed was Road tax of 1.50k not added to every litre of petrol to replace revenues from the toll gates ? Are we still not still paying the road tax ? What is is it being used for ?

Which country did you travel to?
Those lanes you posted are speed lane, normally if you're in a haste you use the lane and pay the toll.

Do we have such here?
