Hmm. Even motorists will still enter that lane.
Is it not Nigeria again?

They should proffer workable ideas not ones that will increase accidents.

Kids riding bicycles to school won't work in Nigeria.

Nigeria isn't USA. There would be high rate of accident on the way!

By the way, I thought we all agreed that only obi and his supporters are suffering? Tinubu and yulluba people are massively enjoying. They want to teach Igbo people and other tribes in Nigeria politics, Dear Yollubas, what later happened?

I went to Secondary School in 80s and half of the School come with bicycle in this same Nigeria.

What changed. We have cars everywhere and moreover, it was the time every man buys Mate90 for his inlaws to marry their daughter.

Na wa....

But even at that self,even the price of bicycle self no cheap....

I remember when one boy boarded my keke with his newly bought bicycle......I asked him how much he bought the bicycle and he told me it was #120k shocked

So this option isn't even as easy as we may think it is...
this can't be true, that's massively expensive nah.
Re: Parents Suggest Bicycle Rides To School As Bus Fees Increase by matm: 12:58pm On Aug 28, 2023

Students riding bikes to school with the current state of Nigerian roads will be a very risky venture. Every day hit and run drivers will be on the prowl.

We're not carved for this. What I'll advocate is efficient Student buses.
Don't mind them.
It is cheaper, safter and faster to provide [heavily subsidized/free] buses for school children alone than to construct special lanes on every major road for bicycles alone. But that's all the parents can think of. And yet we think the problems of this country lie with the politicians alone.

Creating a bikers lane will incure more expenses and more destruction of properties

Instead advocation for alternative means of power such as conversion of the petrol buses into CNG or LNG which sells for about 150 and 350.

This would make the fees more cheaper
What happens when the price increase in the future? We should always think of a long term solution and not just immediate solution.

Yours is cheap. I bought at 767 at gas plant and 800 per kg at an individual outlet.
Buy more if you can.

As a pedestrian, If i count the number of times i was almost hit ehn while going to school.. Not with the roads full of people who are eager to cut corners to get ahead..Even if u make seperate lane for bikes, drivers will invade it... Unless, gov. is willing to spend more on making road dividers.

So you see that it is not only govt that has problems. The citizens equally have a role to play. Safety on the roads is not the entire responsibility of the govt.

In other Nations this would work, there are even walk ways meant for people who want to walk to their place of work or business. Must we all own and drive a car that's the question.

Most things Nigerians own is just for show off not out of necessity, or for real comfort.

Nigeria is like a Rubik's cube
