By Tajudeen Adebanjo and Omolola Afolabi.

Life continued to pick up on Monday in Lagos after hoodlums attacked public and private facilities last week following the EndSARS protests.

Commercial buses are back on the roads but commuters had a raw deal as the burning of Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) buses took a toll.

The buses were burnt at their terminals in Oyingbo and Berger Yard.

There were no BRT buses plying Ikorodu Road, leaving many commuters stranded.

A similar situation was faced by those in Oyingbo axis, where the bus terminal was locked

Though there were buses available for the commuters that came out, but the fare was increased.

Some of the commuters lamented the burning of the buses.

They pleaded with the government to act fast and rebuild the terminal to make life easier.

Some motorists in Ikorodu took to the restricted BRT corridor.

A civil engineer, Rasheed Ganiyu, said he was unable to get a bus to work.

“I had to call my boss to tell him I wouldn’t be able to make it to work. I’m glad that he is an understanding person,” he said.

The yellow-painted commercial buses and some private vehicle owners came to the rescue.

“There are no buses to drive; will there still be jobs for us?” a driver asked.

Another driver who simply gave his name as Segun was optimistic that once government officials fixed the charred vehicles or bought another set, everything would be back to normal.

Segun, however, was not sure how soon it would be.

“It is sad that we have to go through this; although we don’t know how long it will take for us to be back on track,” he said.

Another commuter, Moses Ayegba, a private auditor, decried the burning of the buses.

“We expect that fares will begin to increase. We have not recovered from the economic downturn due to the pandemic; now paying through our noses for transportation is a lot to deal with,” he said.

George Nyedirike, a manager of a synthetic hair manufacturing company, said many more people do not have alternatives.

Ustec:
That's a loose-loose situation, so no hard feelings
2023 won't be business as usual for these wicked politicians.

gidgiddy:
Its just to show how useless Wike is. They told that IPOB is a terrorist organisation that is based in Oyigbo destroying Oyigbo. Which terrorist organisation will be destroying where it lives? Would Boko haram destroy Sambisa? Rather than sending emissaries to the area to find out what is happening on the ground, he swallowed the lies he was told, and in the process, put an unnecessary bounty on Stanley Mgbere, a young man who led a peaceful protest in his hom town of Onne. A man thats has no connection to IPOB. This is all about giving a Dog a bad name to kill it

Prompto:
See message from a lunatic.

ThatFairGuy1:
Aside the assault, Nigerians should give Respect to men in uniform. You shouldn't expect them to queue like civilians, they might be on an emergency assignment

vanbonattel:
They will rush to arrest the innocent man because he is southerner. People that are worse than Don Wany, Terwase Akwaza (Gana) and a lot of others are operating freely in the north. That is why the north is a killers paradise, but they sent SARS to the south west and south east to kill and destroy.

Broklynsouth:
wike what happens to your national political ambitions ? of you fight the inland Igbos who will you fall back to when Hausa and Yoruba people come for your head .amaechi is shouting I am IGBO because he has seen that only ikwere and money can't get him anywhere .PDP should call this guy to other if for any reason this guy is seen anywhere close to ballot box PDP will loose the election

gidgiddy:
Someone should tell Wike that the flag he is talking about is the Biafran flag, and not IPOB flag. That flag has been in existence for over 50 years, long before there was anything called IPOB

Now it has become IPOB flag? Wike is very foolish

csn01:
Condolence!!!
Dear country people, please don't loot, just take what belongs to you. And where can you get that? In the covid 19 palliative warehouse not in my shop or in any other person store. Thanks.

Stalwert:
Is it not funny how PMB enemies always make mole hill out of nothing and still get disgraced, now what next for Reno and his 10, 000 fools?

donphilopus:
I've never heard him live on radio Biafra before. But I was opportune to be in a place where someone was listening to him when he said Tinubu's properties should be destroyed. I was so full of anger that I had to concentrate on my phone. There's no difference between him and a motor park tout.

SalamRushdie:
Idiot

donphilopus:
Some people believe Adeyinka Grandson and Adamu Garba are wereys while Nnamdi Kanu is so intelligent. Those set of people are more daft than Nnamdi Kanu himself.

He should be in exile and be issuing threats. If he's man enough, he should come down to Nigeria to threaten Wike. I trust Wike to place a bounty of just N10 million on him. And those PH cultists won't spare him.

GolDRoger:
Must Our leaders be drag out before they do what they were elected to do?? Its a shame. Otta of all places

MickzyDonald:
Both the state and federal are all mad,they both know about the storing process of the palliatives,but now that everyone now knows about their evil deeds they are now pushing it to one another.... May the Thunderous Thunder of God smack them all. Selfish government's

ignis:
Kill the looters... Sorry are you one?

ignis:
Kill them all.

Racoon:
For the fact that only one mummified zombie is desperately trying to twist the glaring truth of the unfolding Lekki shootings & killings alone have confirmed this dastard even to be true let alone other evidence.
20/10/2020 is a day in histroy.RIP colleagues.#EndSARS
