I'm not clear as per the grievance with LCC and the toll gate

1. Is it that it exists and collects tolls.Then ask for a reduction in fare.Its possible the protesters in this category are too young or forgot the alternative.That road was rebuilt repeatedly and washed off every time.The LCC arrangement was a concession for its setup and repairs for a durable long lasting road at a cost the state could absorb.I remember when we spend 5 hrs just to move to Ajah from the island.You all want develop but not the cost.Stupid protests like this discourage other investors from investing in the future of the country.These are examples been set about how unviable it is by team stupid youths.


2.it is owned by Tinunbu complainants.And so? How many Peter Obi bussinesses are on hold?


3.people were killed there and there has been no justice.The protest should never have held at that venue.The only access route to a large community with millions of persons there. It was an invitation to anarchy.Anybody with a functioning brain will see that.And now you want to go and close the same road network again.Hoe can the same set if people be that stupid 2ce. How many police men have made areas in the State no go areas...

Police men were killed a lot, the hypocrisy is sickening do Police lives not matter?

Where is the justice were they were concerned.The boy that said Nigeria will not end him.was a police relative killed by another set of "protesters"where is the outrage too

I understand the fight for injustice but this channel you all have chosen make you the villains in this story.

[s]Correction, it's not a counter protest.

The plan is to beat sense into the heads of the jobless #EndSARS protesters whose stupidity led to the burning down of infrastructure and businesses in Lagos.

People that lost their livelihoods and properties will be there to visit their anger on these daft protesters.[/s]



Peaceful protest at the lekki tollgate. It became bloody when your stupid soldiers stepped in and it escalated.

Defending what is illegal, it is illegal to have a toll gate within a state. Is Lekki another state? I remember a lawyer trying to take up the case then stating that it was illegal but gunmen visited his house that same week.

The same LCC built another toll gate in the same Lekki area but were stopped from using it to collect money. Now the monstrosity is just being used as a billboard and causes unnecessary traffic when it should be torn down.

Rebuild lagos is a means for them to make money but the gullible youth is going to defend lagos. A youth that cannot think and ask why traffic reduced since they closed the toll gate. The toll is just to enrich a few set of ppl. And people will be abusing buhari (who is also a dimwit) when you cannot think.. Bare jokes

Tribalism don enter.
Everyone planning to protest against reopening of the gate should retreat.
It's funny that everyone is shouting DJ Switch and Peter Okoye, but nobody is mentioning the Yorubas spearheading the planned protest

This is because the empty headed people championing this counter protest are not sincere! They are using tribe as a weapon to cause division and keep us powerless.

It's always the same government idiots who want to continue with the same rot in the country, bloodthirsty criminals planning assault and murder online.

I hope they are enjoying their smelling gutter streets, 3 hours of light daily and 200/litre fuel.

And you all should note that Lagos has a well orchestrated machinery for its defence.Someone must have called them back.

You people are children or new to Lagos or else you will know if you have ever seen them in action.Lagos was burnt and you saw nada.You all think there is nothing in lag.MC was even dancing .their general dancing in crises from the best strategists around .Any protester protesting at LCC is simply a lone fool.

Carry your protest to the courts and house of assembly if you are serious. Remenber to add justive for the police men slain too.But sars has been scrapped though

Also protest at okokomaiko,festac,amuwodofin ,satelite town etc.You can add Iyana ipaja too and we will take you seriously

These are paid APC puppet, everyone has a right to protest, the police can be there to ensure non violence, this counter group is coming to cause destruction. The tollgate needs to remain closed.

Not at the venue they choose that is a high level security threat.No one anywhere in the world will approve that kind of protest.You all know it.So why should Nigeria allow it.

Do you even know the story of those in phase 1 at that period.people (ordinary residents o)had their houses invaded,cars burnt because protesters picked the residential neighbourhood to "protest" and they couldnt leave because "protesters" blocked the only exit

Protest is the civil right of every Nigerian's, but violence protesters and arsonist should be treated with great displeasure. Howbeit those writing against the planned protest and threatened violence against the protesters are nothing but APC media/online soldiers according to buhari.

God will continue to bless your fountain of wisdom. Lekki tollgate will open.

5 members of a panel , against 4, voted in favour of the tollgate being returned to the Lekki concession company that runs the tollgate. This satisfies the rules of democratic voting all law-abiding Democrats must respect.

Yet undemocratic elements , always seeking fairness from leaders and the government, are now not ashamed to reject the outcome of a transparent process their own youth leaders agreed to be a part of and to respect.

I personally will always argue, in the case of Nigeria, that followers are no less lawless, callous, selfish, inconsiderate or wicked than leaders.

It is not only morally bad and in bad taste but totally insensitive for the Lekki tollgate to be reopened at a time like this, especially when the blood of the innocent victims are still crying for elusive justice.

When you also remember that the lekki massacre was engineered out of the frustration of those making money from the tollgate, it’s inexcusable for the same criminally devious people to return to work as if nothing happened.

Toll gates are always positioned toward the outskirts of a state.

That axis is one of the corridors leading out of Lagos State to Ogun State.

So now, toll gate right in the middle of the city, right next to Oriental HOTEL, is now on the outskirts of Lagos?

What won't you evil people say to support your oppressors

Black people are proving time and time again, that they can not manage a society or country.

Toll gates are meant to generate revenue to a state. They chose a position close enough to the outskirts yet still viable enough to generate internal revenue to the state.

This means in essence they are taxing the rich more since the belief is that the rich live within that axis.

That's the ideology

how can a city center now become analogous to the outskirts, chai

If we really want Justice, protest should be taken to Abuja and Senate, not Lagos. Don't you think there are some elements hell-bent on destroying Lagos? Why must it be Lagos every time? Why not start the protest from another state?

The whole English tribe is in one country.
The whole French tribe is in one country.
The whole German tribe is in one country.
The whole Portuguese tribe is in one country
The whole Spanish tribe is in one country.
The whole Russian tribe is in one Country.
-
All of them formed their country by themselves and mind their gaddem business. Every tribe likes to stick with themselves, black or white.
-
But in Nigeria, you have 250 different tribes forced together under a boundary that we didn't agree together to form,
you add ONE president over all of them and you expect there to be no problems?
-
Even UK ran out of EU and refused to use Euro currency with the others. Northern Ireland, Southern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England are always quarrelling with each other, even though, ALL OF THEM speak English.
Americans want to kill themselves because of Trump/Biden... Muslim/Jews..

Guy better wake up. Nigeria is not our fault. There's nothing wrong with black people.
