Don't deceive people.

Read and you will see where the government says the union will continue to collect their dues. If you are Lagosian, you should understand what that means.

Are you minding him. I'm Just using one eye to look at him. 90% of commenters here are not Into transportation In Lagos, So they don't know what they are saying. The Agberos Levies varies between N2000+ to 3000+ for all commercial vehicles daily and one will still pay for state government levy N800 separately. So he should do the calculation......

Imagine Tinubu as Nigeria presido, Nigerians will not survive it for 6 months.

Lol funny you, They will not survive what? You will be surprise they will Outshine Tinubu and dust him more than they dusted the Lifeless. You can't break or mar these people. I have seen people who had nothing to eat for more than 36Hours before help came to them, Yet they didn't die and If you ask most of them how are you doing, They will tell you we are fine. I have seen more than enough In my Lifetime......

No. The sum what drivers used to pay in local government dues, garage cleaning dues, Ministry of transport dues and LASEPA used to be up to ₦3,000.

Now, the ₦3,000 has been moved into one single price of ₦800 which is a reduction in price so any driver who charges more is just been greedy.

Get it?
Bro this is a pure lie! I use to work as a bus conductor before, local government dues has never been a problem, it's the Agbero's. We were only angree that, that of local government compound our problem after paying heavy dues to the Agberos

In case you don't know, Nigeria is the only place in the world where citizens pay taxes to the government and then pay rates to touts! And such is sanctioned by the State!

This is called Awawa boys and One million boys democracy. Institutionalized and encouraged by The Don Corleone of Burdillion himself; Oga Hushcobar Tinubu!

Seems you dont travel or you dont read the right books.. apart from few countries it happens almost everywhere, italy worse pass... China self dey do am..keep deceiving yourself by bashing your country any chance you get..the only good thing about those countries is the centre leadership uses those taxes generated well..

This is evil. But they'll ofcourse defend it vehemently as usual.

The drivers are not cooperating,on that day there should be a severe protest where by no buses should be seen anywhere until they relax the rates and share the union fees in two,lasg should do 50 50 with agberos .

You don't understand English.
Jf they were paying government dues of 3000 before and government has reduced it to 800.
What is the reason for your rabies... All the barking is not necessary.
Get understanding before barking around abeg
You are the one that needs to get understanding.

If govt reduce drivers fees from 3000 to 800, how come they are still begging the drivers not to increase t-fares?

You have a brain oga, use it.

This policy is going to be burdensome to numerous drivers, Lagosians is going to pay more, i want to believe it wont affect korope (mini buses) drivers, if not they will flee to ogun state.

Oga use your brain na.
If they were paying N3000 before paying union charges before now they have to pay just N800
Doesnt that reduce what they usually pay daily....

Ride on in your folly, bro.
It is well with you.
Re: Lagos Warns Commercial Drivers Against Fare Increase Over ₦800 Govt Levy by Lisaint(m): 3:49am On Jan 24, 2022
The government will never say the truth!


Everyone of us enter busses daily right!

Apart from The White and green uniform guys and the Yellow yellow uniform guys
Which is NURTW and RTEAN guys!

Have you ever see any other collector representing local government?

Lets use ikotun-Iyana ipaja as a case study
Apart from the nurtw guys that collect money at Ikotun,Council,idimu,Egbeda,and iyana ipaja


And those that collect for police,lasman,and task force if they show up at iyana-ipaja

Who’s collecting for LGA?


Even if someone is collecting for LGA
It’s not up to 3000

Why are they using Island-Badagry ?
To justify this extortion?
Why can’t they use short distance like
Ikotun-igando
Ikotun-oshodi
Berger to oshodi
Ikotun to cele express
Igando-iyana ipaja
Iyana-ipaja to ber



They are trying to spin the narrative
Those that are also covering short distance will pay this additional levy and will also pay Union dues

If LASG have iron balls
Why didn’t they scrap the union dues

Or bring some sanity to their head like the oyo state park management !!


The commissioner of information even made it clear that

The levy no affect union dues! Lol seriously

======================================



Let’s remember most of this Danfo no get garage ooo


Wey LASG dey talk say
Lasema dey charge them for garage wey dem dey clean!
Where’s the garage in mushin?
Ikotun nko?
Isolo nko?
Cele express nko

On the Badagry route they are using as example

No garage too o!

Government of owo da

Common sence is not common.

If you are the bus driver and your tax is being reduced from 3k to 800, will you think of increasing fare? Please use your brain to pick out the lies.

Remember, this is Nigeria the only place that do the miracles Jesus could not do.
