Activist VeryDarkMan (VDM) takes action in Auchi by ensuring the installation of speed bumps along Auchi Road.

The move aims to slow down speeding trucks and improve road safety for residents and motorists in the area.

This is illegal.

Eberex:
Next news you will hear now is that Edo state government telling him he has no right to do that. That he needs to follow due process and get approval before any action is taken on the road.

But they will be right.

If he didn't get approval before doing it, then he's no different from the politicians he has devoted his life to insulting. Due process exists for a reason.

It applies everywhere in the world before you people come with your 'saner clime' chorus.

casualobserver:
Dangote will not employ a driver without a driving license. You clearly don’t know how companies of that size operate.

The problem is that a license in NIGERIA IS meaningless.

Learn to construct a debate with intellect!

Go to verydarkman page n watch.

Because i was surprised.
. One it was the son of 21 driving when asked the old man say him don old na him make him ask his son. Even the old man driving licence expired 4 years ago.

Another no even get license at all.

. U never sabi aboki

Everyday for the thief, one day for the owner!

You don’t pay ground rent for 40 yrs doesn’t make it legal. One day owner of ground rent seizes your house and you cry victimization.

VDM is a high profile personality who has stepped on toes, you don’t make it easy for your enemies to get you by committing an illegal act!

I got the third paragraph

This is probably the administration that allows anything goes otherwise, this work VDM (as commendable and life-saving as it is) is doing and some actions he has taken since arriving Auchi, are enough to land him in prison after being tried in court, of course.

You don’t go preventing a legal entity and perhaps Nigeria’s highest tax paying company’s trucks from plying a road because of the unwholesome actions of some of its employees on the road. You also as a private citizen, don’t have the rights to “work” or carry out any form of alteration to a federal road without necessary permits just because you’ve the resources to or have a messianic complex.

Even state governments that are subnationals don’t touch federal roads no matter how terrible they’re (even if they’re death traps) without first receiving permission from FG but hey, it’s VDM; he’s allowed to do anything that seems populist even though he maybe breaking the laws while at it.

Ikumapkayi:
He is breaking the law. He has no right to do what he just did. This is clout chasing and overreach. If he is so passionate, he could have volunteered to lead a campaign on safe driving with FRSC in that axis and elsewhere in Nigeria. All this na show off. He needs to use his brain. You can't try this nonsense in western country

I prefer this kind of law breaking than the one you suggested.
Spirit of every law is more important than the letter of the law at the surface.

He's taking law into his hands which is illegal not wrong(intention matters), but it's beneficial and doesn't harm anybody. Kini big deal?

Good move Police will love this you all know what i mean

smtx:
Don't mind the idiots. When a govt fail to adhere to court injunction it isn't illegal. When one individual uses his influence to oppress the people and the govt is quiet, it isn't illegal. Instead of us to use the initiative of VDM to bring sanity to the system, we are here talking about legality... Truly we never ready to make naija better.... Useless people everywhere

The logic goes as follows.

Herdsmen attack a my village kills people, nothing happens every government agencies stays mute.

Fast forward the herdsmen come again I manage to defend myself, then you hear them" its isn't legal, you don't have permission to defend yourself, it's unlawful you should have run or allow them kill you, what you did is against the law you should have wait for the police or army"

A study needs to be carried out to ascertain how these people reason most times, common sense is so far these lots.

I don’t watch VDM, I don’t have time for people like him so I will take you at your word!

AntiChristian:
Why would he do this?

This guy would soon mess up himself bigtime!

I believe if it was your wife or sister lying in the hospital with broken bones,you wouldn't say this.sorry if this makes you angry but let us commend this vdm guy.

casualobserver:

Tell me what is legal in Nigeria

And Tinubu's negligence in governance and wholesome stealing is Legal?.

Trouble Dey sleep, but sometimes we go out of our way to wake am up; some moves backfire..

Yes, it is a fantastic thing to do what is right, but what is right must be done the right way.

Here is my questions:
. Does VDM has the right to modify public road that belongs to the government?
. Has VDM gotten the right permission to make this move?
. Is VDM making this move because he cares or because he has ulterior motives?
. Is VDM working for a politician to systematically debase this current administration?
. Can VDM get in trouble for making this move?
. If this speed Bumps cause accident, who will be responsible.

Yes, it is great to do fantastic things for our communities, but it is also very important to use our sense during the process; I think VDM May be crossing a very thick line that may land him in a hot spicy soup… Things may be out of place in Nigeria, but it still not our father’s village, but a country that has rules and regulations.

I predict that VDM will end up regret making certain moves; this is NIGERIA. If you don’t believe me, go and interview Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s family

So don't say what u have no idea of..

I expected u to go online to watch it but u said u don't have time. Okay can you go to Auchi to carry out investigation?

Well he took his time to Auchi. Stood on the way and interrogating the drivers after stopping them before this revelation. Everything on video

casualobserver:

Illegal no mean bad. It means not officially approved. But you not wrong

When Christ was accuse of healing on the Sabbath you know his answer. Is it lawfully to do good on any day?


Good is good. It's always lawfaull to do it..even if it unapproved by state hand

004gist:
And most of dangote driver's without driving licence are legal abi

Constructing a barrier on a public highway is illegal.

Every road has sign n speed cameras.
N federal ministry of work sat down..

Speed limit should be introduced.. Human life matters more than anything

How can u be crushing students on daily basis? How

As you are still supporting bulaba and APC!

Brilliant,this is what the state government should have done many years ago on that at Aichi Polytechnic axis. This is highly commendable.

Again, just because things are not perfect in Nigeria, doesn’t give cat, mouse and dog the permission to be doing things as they feel. Nigeria is a country that has rules and regulations…
Yes, it is ok to contribute to our communities, but we still have to apply common sense. Not all contributions are legal.
By the way, this has nothing to do with Tinubu; it’s time for use to speak like we have education; President is not responsible for every pot hots in our various neighborhoods. Please stop abusing our president and allow him to make our country great again.

I am not interested in people like VDM who break laws under the guise of “doing good”. When in reality they are merely using the fodder to enrich themselves. Neither am I interested in being fodder for content creators trying to divert me to their website or YouTube page to get paid.

I have already conceded and said that I take your word for it. Is it that you don’t know what that means? Under normal circumstances from my vast experience in the private sector and corporate organizations, a company of that size has a dedicated transport officer whose job is to make sure the documents for all drivers are up to date. Clearly if what you are saying is true, it wasn’t followed. I don’t have to waste my time watching people like VDM.

stagger:
This is illegal.

Can you tell me what is legal in Nigeria

It is clear that who are supporting this move belong to that small party that lost the election. These people will do anything to debase this current admin. And it is sad.

It is time to move on!

Until you present a credible alternative yes!

Why do people hate this guy for no reason. Even if it's wrong, how is it clout chasing The hatred among youths and able bodied men in this part of the world is serious evil.
