I am always baffled when ppl keep saying that Fashola has made giant strides in Lagos, mtsheuwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. In a country where mediocrity is celebrated I will say yes. The only thing I know Fashola and his ACN cohorts have done is to increase the revenue stream for the state govt. Come to VI and you 'll see the worst roads in Nigeria and that is the richest local govt we are talking about. The point about this LCC/HITECH is that, d govt is not being truthful, how on earth can put a toll on the only route in and out of a place and them slam it on them such that they have no choice. Do you Lord it over your own ppl? Let there be an audit of LCC's books and we will see that it is only an avenue for some ppl to launder public funds,  That was how a simple link bridge from ozumba to falomo bridge was built with 25billion Naira (Not sure of the figure but it is in this range),
It is only a matter of time, OCCUPY NAIJA will kick in full swing

So it is alright the way the Syrian leader is killing protesters in his country?. So it was okay the way Ghadaffi killed protesters in Libya?. So it was okay the way Abacha wiped out many Yoruba elites who questioned him about June 12 annulment and his dictatorship?.

jmaine:

To those freaking liars . . .what do you have to say about the STV camera that was beaten and his camera seized by paid ACN thugs, was he also trying to force people to join the protest while covering  . .You guyz need to update your propaganda skillz . . .imagine the useless Fashola spokes person saying that the hoodlums who were unfortunately protected by the police sent by the same government were probably PDP paid thugs . .

I never knew the PDP and the ACN do have a common share in the toll gate saga . .


What a fool . . .

Lol, just saw kate henshaw on stv raking with her neck veins dilated, men, people are really pissed o!

So you saw it too   . .the lady para no be small especially after being the face of the Lagos state tax drive via T.V jingles    . . heard she was even brutalized also    . .

psalmizt:

Honestly I wonder waht planet you re from? How much of that lekki road was created? Was that road not in existence before LCC tushed it up? Really the only i see there is the toll gate, every other thing on that road is just ordinary.  Tell me why the citizenry can not just enjoy a common thing from the govt,  A road that was not built over swampy terrain like the Naija Delta neither was a bridge constructed over dangerous waters the govt concessioned to a private organization,  Come on ppl should think straight here,  PPP are in place when the cost of fixing the road is so much burden for the govt,  Soon someone will tell me that Abuja Lokajo should be tolled just like the east west road in the South SOuth,  The truth is that lagos state govt is [size=15pt]IRRESPONSIBLE[/size] as in the case of LASU,

Remii:

Honestly I feel very sad today for voting for Fasola. How can he mobilize maximum force against enlightened protestants. People who carried only placards and just dancing, did not even call govt names or insult anyone.

These same Tinubu, Fasola,  &co protested against Abacha under NADECO. It is a shame.

Even uniformed policemen almost out numbered the protesting crowd, not to talk of secret agents pretending to be among the crowd.


This is really sad.

alj_harem:


I see your point but Lekki is an expensive area and as such the people that live there are the high and might of the society.

@skii , so in actual fact the alternative is a 'coincident' alternative and not what govt planned to provide initially?

TRUTHTELA:

@ Psalmitz, Do not be surprise when they SCREAM about Fashola & his GAINT STRIDES. That's Nigerians for you, THEY LOVE HEADLINES. They do NOT ask QUESTIONS or view issues  CRITICALLY &OBJECTIVELY. When Obasanjo handpicked Yar'adua,for his own SELFISH interest, Nigerians, failed to ask questions about his LEGACIES & HEALTH CONDITIONS. Rather, they were carried away with newspapers HEADLINES of how  HONEST he is and he turned Katsina to ELDORADO & it's all LIES. When his HEALTH began to fail, Nigerians began to MAKE NOISE. Too little,too late.

When Jonathan said he will run for President. People failed to be OBJECTIVE & did not ask questions about Jonathan. Wikileaks reported him telling the then US ambassador to Nigeria, that he's not capable of leading Nigeria. People did not ask, what LEGACY did Jonathan leave in Bayelsa as a Governor? Rather, we were carried away with SOUTH & MINORITY sentiments.

Jonathan became the president, presently, Nigerians are MAD @ him cos THE CHICKEN HAVE COME HOME TO ROOST. They REGRETTED voting for him. Why now? cos they failed to look beyond the NEWSPAPER HEADLINES.

Why is that Nigerians are not protesting against SUBSIDY REMOVAL?? Cos Jonathan never promised to remove it when he was contesting for the president. It's a BREACH of TRUST.

Please stop with the moronic ramblings already. The vast majority of those who live in Lekki are NOT RICH.

alj_harem:

ok

What are the things you saw to suggest they are not rich ?

Kobojunkie, to build a house in Lekki is 50% more expensive than mainland because of the water level

The houses in Lekki are the most beautiful in the country. I can keep going on and on so

In fact tell me a part in Lekki that suggest the people are not rich. Thanks

@alj_harem

I think two tolls at the extreme ends of the lekki-epe expressway with as low a cost as 50 is okay IMO

What !!!!! STV camera man beating by who ? Fashola or who exactly ?

What sorta stvpid question is this and what do you hope to gain by asking this sorta silly question    . . . Guy make you rearrange bo !

alj_harem:

What !!!!! STV camera man beating by who ? Fashola or who exactly ?

What protest is there in the world that people are not manhandled ?

Once you protest against the government, get ready for the consequences.

Moreover, this is the Nigerian police we are talking about not a well civilized police force

Yes, getting beaten by political thugs cos they were not policemen by his accounts, is part of the consequences of protesting against a government all over the world . . . . . and the police even added cover for their thuggery damn    !!

let me hear people claim that the police is soly answerable to the F.G only

alj_harem:


Yes ACN is not different from PDP. Fact

Remii:


Igbo Efon, Jakande, Ilassan, Ikota Village, Okun Ajah, Sangotedo, Ajiran, Awoyaya, Alpha Beach ,,,,,,,, do you want more
