Lagos pre 1999.

Imagine having the deepest seaport in Africa, the biggest international airport in Africa for a very long time.
More than 100 countries building their embassies in one place.
Many international bodies building their regional headquarters in one place.

Many multinational corporations situating their corporate headquarters in one place.

All these before 1999.

And someone comes here and says Tinubu built Lagos. That's the highest fallacy and blunder one could commit.

TINUBU DIDN'T MAKE LAGOS!
LAGOS MADE TINUBU!

Oasis007:




My Bruh.... Politics no be war. I am supporting Tinubu 100%, but it doesn't mean Obi or Atiku is my Enemy.

We all want same for Naija, Progress! Obidients see Obi as the right man for the Job; Atikulates believe Atiku is the one with magic wand to turn Nigeria to UAE; Kwankwasiyas wanna turn everywhere red; Batifieds believe its the Turn of a competent Leader with excellent track records to lead.... all in all, better Nigeria is all we're seeking!

For those in Lagos pre 1999. This was what Oshodi used to look like

GloriousGbola:
Byebye molue.

There is even a plan to phase out danfo, but it is taking longer and longer.

Some of the buses for the scheme were burnt during the end sars riots

DeadPresidents:
In a dilemma now. Want to get my PVC but won't be In the country to vote. Worried if I get a PVC without voting, I may aid in rigging in an undesirable.

You can leave it then.

Just put us in your prayers

donjazet:
Please fellow Nigerians, don't make this mistake, I beg of you!

Let us not repeat what we did 7 years ago.

Let's chart a new path. To hell with the establishment.

David is blowing hot this morning

Sadly, the same mistake might be made. Nigerians never learn

Joezinho is leaving us soon, and probably DeadPresidents, but no, let's give APC the chance to present Einstein once more

izzou:
Sanwo-Olu increases BRT fares by 100 naira.

Long overdue. I was even expecting it could be more sef

Elder0001:


Your reasons?

Elder0001:


Say something

izzou:


I used the BRT around September from Ikorodu to TBS. I paid 500 naira

In September 2021,
Diesel was around 280 or so
Dollar exchange rate would be around 520 too

As at June 2022, they were still collecting 500 naira
Diesel is 820 naira today
Dollar is about 620

I don't even think that scheme makes any money sef, with the way they run their business. Maybe na just camouflage to siphon funds.

larride:


Any reasonable govt will not just hike prices the way they want, with the way inflation is biting the country, it will be insensitive to just increase the fare without reason.

Even the 100 naira that was added now, you will still see alot of people spewing rubbish against him.

donjazet:


God knows I really did my best to not reply that joezinho guy when he announced he was about to japa. Because I for open him yansh.
All these while, you were planning to leave Nigeria but you dedicated your last days here becoming a bitter tribal warlord on the internet, stoking division and the flames of tribal unrest.

Wishing your fellow Nigerians to have another bad leadership while you escape the hell you are wishing on them. Is that not wickedness??

It's just like the other tribal baboon here that has spent years and years insulting a whole other tribe and it's people, while enjoying fresh air outside the country. Some people are just naturally wicked.

It has to be said that David is a blessing to Peter Obi's campaign. He has been injecting soo much energy into the campaign, let him keep pressing those necks.

Politics is deeply personal,I keep telling people this. This is not football. That I'm buying diesel that used to buy for 300 naira a litter 1000 naira today is no laughing matter.

That I'm spending 78k today on the exact same things I used to spend 45k is no laughing matter. The price of every single thing in Nigeria has more than doubled. One's earning capacity is not matching the increasing outflow of expense. Education, poor. Security, poor, infrastructure, poor, healthcare, poor. What exactly is working in this country?

Bro, I'm tired! And people are still talking about maintaining the status quo. People want fashola to remain power minister for 16 years.
For Ngige to remain labor minister for 16 years.
For aregbasola to remain interior minister for 16 years.

For the present cabinet to be more or less the same. I curse them all!

izzou:
Donjazet

That's why I don't believe Tinubu would change anything, even if it's little. The same systems that has hindered growth would be maintained.
It can only be changed by a new system.

Tinubu is not bad, but Lagos is not Nigeria.

In Lagos, he could plan every ministry and position by himself. He could pick the best men all by himself. He didn't owe any group any favours or though of appeasing any aggrieved sect. He worked and earned all loyalty.

Nigeria is not like that, and besides, systems and people brought him there. The Tinubu I know
would have had his VP planned out, even to his ministers. But as at now, he hasn't even come up with a choice because of appeasings here and there.

Tinubu is a Muslim and he never considered Muslim Muslim ticket in Lagos, but somehow, he wants to convince us that it doesn't matter in the Federal level.

izzou:


Bros, even before now, that price is too cheap compared to the service offered.

You have a secluded lane devoid of traffic
The bus is air-conditioned
Ease of payment
Adheres to standard sitting arrangements

Then you travel a distance of about 18km (Ikorodu to TBS) for 500 naira? Less than a dollar?

No wonder some don't have air conditions anymore. The amount it would take to replace the compressor of that Scania bus would eat up what that bus made in one month sef.

Let's not talk about Maintaining the bus stations like Ikeja and Oshodi, servicing and repairs, paying staff, Maintaining servers....Lol

For me, that service shouldn't come cheap.

larride:


Yes I also believe the fare are cheap but then the govt needs to make it affordable. It's a mass transit and the volume of people they pick should cushion the cost.

I sincerely hope they won't do the same with the light rail once it commence operations. I believe they should concession these businesses with a PPP agreement where the private sector run and maintain it while the government holds a controlling stake.
