I remember when we introduced them (1st May 2023) and so many people said it will breakdown on 3rd Mainland Bridge, It will be a year by next month and it has been a huge success story so far. We are bringing in a lot more of the electric buses soon. In fact, people want to enter it more than the regular BRT buses. Adupe ti oro awon ‘ota’ o she lori wa 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The electric Buses were launched in May 2023 as a test

THREAD: Governor of Lagos State, Mr @jidesanwoolu and @Oando_PLC announced the arrival of the first set of electric buses in Lagos, plenty questions popped up. I went to the Lagos Bus Services Limited (@Lbslng) Office, Oshodi to explore the buses myself.

ND inside Nigeria, the % that is due to every oil states had been stated in the Constitution if you aren't agreed with it request for more through appropriate channels

Are Niger Delta people forbidden of replicating something better than this upon the monthly Oyel money they have been receiving.

Bayelsa state with just 3m population, what wonders in terms of development is happening there?

Make una continue to dey blame others for your woes, na typical pattern of a failure

Do you know they have increased the electricity bill?

Perfect !
But wait, with the increased tariff in electricity, won't that be a recurring reflection of price hike?
Abi the buses are solar powered ni?

Some govt officials talk like what I don’t understand.

If people said the buses would breakdown on the road or it’ll have terrible maintenance, it’s simply because they’ve seen what was done with the previous ones (non electric) that’s been bought.

What’s oju ti awon ota, when people were only pointing out poor maintenance culture of anything that belongs to the government. Even though monies are budgeted for these maintenance it still isn’t used for that purpose.

Just do your work and leave otas alone.

To the tribal bigots forming attache to Lagos. None of you, I repeat none of you is more of a bonafide lagosian than I am. If you’re confident that you can point to your fathers family in Lagos state, mention the family name.

from his words there is a silent war going on

Ok naa

Juliusganduje:

He is telling you that nothing stops the NigerDelta from also developing as any other state that has received allocations owing to government revenue from NigerDelta oil.

What is also stopping the NigerDelta states from improving in their IGR performance?

Put picture of electric buses moderator....he was reacting to a post, can't we see it

Those people who hid under endsars to burn brt buses should be placed under close surveillance. Because this development go really pain dem.

Fix more roads, let it be smoother

Mr Jags the Commissioner for Information in Lagos

Juliusganduje:

What you should be really concerned about is what Niger Delta does with Niger Delta oil money... What exactly have your governors, elders, and youth leaders been doing with the oil money for decades now?!!

Last time I checked, those producing the oil get the largest chunk (I believe over 13%) of the revenue generated...!

If other states getting less than 5% are doing wonders with theirs, what is the excuse for Bayelsa, Rivers, Delta, etc?!!

Why are your states less developed than Lagos and Kano?!!



Demand answers... Look inwards rather than outwards.

He referring to people like who is allegic to good news and good development.

oga gawat the ones you introduced last year is nowhere to be found oo.
About one or two use to run from ikorodu to oshodi, now they are no more.
From CMS to ikorodu is another story entirely

Must you acquire,can't you built....You have virtually all the components needed to built one in Nigeria.... You can even make it driveless with machine learning ....let patronize made in Nigeria products and brains..and make the black race proud ....

You dey find niger oil money for lagos.

Hespee93:

I pay taxes to Lagos state. I have a right to question what’s been done with the taxes I pay. I have used BRT buses a few times. I have a cowry card and I used the Lagos blue rail line once to see for myself.

I contribute more to the development of Lagos than you.

Also learn to spell. If you can’t, make use of your phone’s autocorrect feature.

It’s allergic, not allegic.

Juliusganduje:

is anyone stopping your govs from buying 10, 000 of those? One of the oyel state says they want to build three gigantic flyovers in one city where agbero won't allow port authority entrance rest. Whose fault is it that they are reckless compared to Lagos?

Good

Tell your leaders to stop spending their faac allocation on ogogoro and women

CodeTemplar:
Lol. You are ignorant.

And you are wise I guess

This is really good. Lagos leads, others follow
