Someone should please link them up to the man;

Anyone who has the contact details of Dorothy Dike or her son Osinachi Dike whose only means of livelihood was taken away the draconian LASG should please reach out to me urgently.

Some friends have decided to support them and bail them out of this predicament.

I don't agree with you that Nigerians are so lawless.

When I see how many cars stay in traffic avoiding BRT lane I beg to differ. Maybe you'd see about 3% defying that, but it doesn't account for 90% plus who are respectful. If only 30% decide to flout the rule at the same time, how many would the officials catch? Still you dont see them doing that.

Our problem is our leaders. Something is fundamentally wrong with our leaders and our officials who are emboldened by their superiors.

Emeskhalifa:
Not in support of the drastic action taken by the Lagos government but let's learn how to behave like humans, not till officials threaten to treat us like animals or start treating us like animals

Ask yourself, how come Nigerians are so lawless in Nigeria but the most law abiding individuals once they set foot outside Nigeria?

Let's learn to do what is right without being forced to do so.

Help if you want to help oga and stop criticizing what you dont have knowledge about

Which one is draconian Lagos state Government again...it is more like comparing the Lagos state government with the Nazis rulership
it is better to remain silent and be thought a fouoool than opening your mouth and quickly remove all doubts whatsoever

Nobody went to his house to forcefully collect the bus from him. He broke the law for christsake. What is extreme about that law and its enforcement.
Some people just like saying rubbish to appear in know or look like angel themselves.

If you are the governor of Lagos state will you allow such indiscipline and disorderliness from road users and those transport drivers that behaves like they are possess??

Someone broke tha law and his vehicle was confiscated, so he didn’t know it was his means of livelihood when he broke the law?

Since he wants to assist every predicament-inclined Nigerian, he should also go and bail all yahoo boys in efcc net, as long as they can claim they are into fraud cos the govt couldn’t provide jobs for them

Let me explain further.

Good the leaders make laws, but to trap citizens, not laws they can't take or keep.

How would you build road just to pile up traffic at one end and smoothen your own business (BRT) because you're the government and you want to make money out of the system?

No clear signs of one way and you hide to catch defaulters. Why not remain visible where the default could start and ask them to change route and punish them if they go ahead to disobey.

You can't leave your property in the hands of a policeman, even in the border. If the official can't be trusted what becomes of the thieves? Even if you like leave a million in your bag, no one would touch it at Togo, Ghana or Benin border.

Nigerians are nice people. The government are the ones bringing out the worst in us.

BeanmanX:
Nigerians will never blame themselves only the leaders,,,u should be ashamed of yourself if u can't hold people responsible for commiting a crime,,and I do support Lagos State government for this wholeheartedly...if they didn't take any action,, Nigerians will never learn.

NOETHNICITY:
See am, typica Nigerian always wanting to pass the blame and never ready to take a single responsibility. Nigerians are worse than our leaders. I’m a Nigerian and most times I feel sick of ways.
It’s the people of every particular society and environment that defines that society or environment. Nigerians are dirty and we blame the government. I’m aware Lagos state government invest billions removing dirts from drainages every now and then. Yet I see people emptying their dirts in the drainage everywhere. Even when close drainages are installed people find their way to sweep their dirts into the drainages through small openings.
Government spend billions installing pedestrian bridges everywhere in Lagos, but people abandon the pedestrian bridges and run through traffic because they are in hurry. Yes government have their failings but many many problems of this country are caused by we citizens.

LeoDeKing:
I sympathise with Dorothy Dike and her son Osinachi Dike.

Though I know, few days from now, same Osinachi will still hide behind social media and be telling Kunle Oshobi that he is the landlord of the house Kunle is living. Infact, he will boast he developed Lagos state.

Anyway, I salute Kunle Oshobi who is assisting Osinachi out of goodwill because if na unto how Osinachi dey run him mouth, na to just dey look am.

Hahahaha! If the auction had taken place anywhere in the north I doubt if anyone would have bought the vehicle.

INDOMIE9090:
they have all moved to Ibadan to develop the place too .
Meanwhile,that is shibuso and shinedu on akobo bridge ibadan developing the city .

Realist12:
Na wao, all these clout chasers self, as nairalanders will say in saner climes , traffic offenders driver's license would be revoked and their vehicles impounded , they risk jail term too . But all this clout chasers will play on the sensibilities of the people,has he ever reached out to victims of these draconian traffic offenders . We want saner climes, but will criticize those that are sanitizing the system for political clout.
I wonder if we truly know what we want

IamAtikulate:
Taking away someone's means of livelihood is never the way to punish traffic offenders.

Fine is an appropriate measure.

LASG is just overbearing.

Just one question, have you ever had a business/company and employed people?

Nyamiri:
Yoruba helping Igbos

You will never see any Igbo man come to help in times like this. But mention that it is burial, you will see them in their chair-fabric cloth twerking and spraying money.

They prefer you die and they spray money at your burial than to save you from dying.

Modified: For the ones quoting me.
Some of you just wasted so many years in school, but ended up without any iota of education of due process in you.

This is very simple even to the unlearned. These people were given certain specific period to appear in court and defend themselves. All it would have required was just a little fine. Maybe 50k or little higher. But these guys failed to show up.

All these was explained even before the auction started. Lagos state is not at fault. Because of 50k fine, you will now end up having to buy back the car for over 600k plus

Does it makes sense??
