What could be the cause of such traffic jam, on a well spaced apart dual road?
Both roads are chocked up. Makes no sense. It can't just be a case of too much vehicles on the road at once, could it?
The FRSC are still on Christmas break cheesy cheesy

GEJ brought back Nigerian Railways why are we still having this sort of traffic? Everyone want to show his or her opulence in cars so they should enjoy the result of neglecting using rail for long journey.

[color=#CD3700] The best thing to do: find someone's wrapper (if you find a mat, even better); look for food in your car; step out of the car and have a picnic! [/color]

Best time to initiate a 'bus relationship'.... Toast her in the bus, pay for her refreshment, 'arrange' her in the same bus, then walk away like a boss cool


I can already imagine the amount of 'fingerring', boob-stroking, and even sexx that will go on in those stranded passenger buses if that traffic doesn't ease up by sundown sad

Many people are travelling back home today to celebrate the first day of the new year with their families. Some people are trapped at the moment in a grid loc along Benin/Asaba expressway.

One of the stranded people said....

 
‘Thinking of going through Benin/Asaba express..think again’.

No be small matter

I was on that road earlier today and I can confirm that, traffic was already building as at around 7 when I was there.

I left onitsha 5am on the dot and I got to berger, Lagos by 12noon.

From what I can confirm, the reason for the traffic IS the mad rush by everyone and everybody, switching lanes indiscriminately in the hope to getting to the east "shortly"

At the end, "they are all stuck
lol. Penny wise, pound foolish. Instead of just hugging the slow pace of the traffic till everyone makes it out. Na too much "sharp-sharp" the cause this kind thing true true.

Goodluck tried bringing it back, but your vote wasn't enough to make that dream come to pass.

Whoever travelled that road on 23rd December will confirm the gridlock we passed through was just exactly like this, if not worse. That'd be the first time in my life I'd be spending close to 24hours on a single journey. I don't think I will forget the experience in a hurry. cry
