The miscreants who wanted to extort him are streets
urchins. The LRU official who helped him are Yorubas.

Meanwhile, in the cave where you were downloaded from, we all know how your flatheaded brothers demand 'marching ground' from anything that lands there even if it's a bird.

Meanwhile, look at those bikes. Mention a single state in your potopoto region that has a single one. Even the patrol cars used by policemen in Lagos are good enough to snatch the wife of a local government chairman in your backward state. grin
I admire your reflective feedback but you aint gotta be an oaf. My post had no form of abuse. Is lagos not the land of the afonjas? Or would u feel any better if i called it the land of the ipob or land of the arewas. Your muted sight obviously sees nothing applicative. I wonder what abyss you evolved from. You diddnt see the part where i wrote he deserves a medal, award and reward you're just yapping with you obtuse brain and inept fingers. My local government of origin lacks thug cuz we help any one in need and we have respect especially for the elderly. You're welcome to visit for the record Im in lagos

If China Ashebe wrote so much grammar, he might have been qualified for a Nobel.

Edit: I just went to your profile and saw your dp. Dude, you look like an housefly. I won't disturb you further as it's obvious God is punishing you and I won't want to interfere with that process.

When OBJ ruled during the military era, he had only one project in Ogun State. That was a bridge which granted him easy access to his house. As civilian president, he didn't have a single project in Ogun State.

The Sango bridge was started by Gbenga Daniel despite the fact that it's on a federal road but was abandon. As Speaker of the FHR, Dimeji Bankole used FERMA to complete the bridge.

On the day the bridge was to be commissioned, Ogun State Government was to commission it by 12 noon. Dimeji Bankole countered them that he was to commission it as he completed it. Guess what OBJ did, he came quietly to the place by 10am and commissioned the bridge before Gbenga Daniel and Dimeji Bankole got there.
am always piss off with the state of road from toll gate to abeokuta..... OBJ was a scam to South west.

This is what you get in a state that has its citizens mind at heart, the lasema works 24hrs every day, only a few people take advantage of the opportunity, they are ready to handle all forms of emergency, even if you have someone in labor at the middle of the night, they can radio the closest health facility to be there. Lagos is working kudos to Governor Ambode.

I have encountered these area boys on lagos brigde like 3 occasions.. If you can switch to street mode sef you still risk getting being killed..I was saved by a Police team once.

But trust me i have seen this LRU team respond to emergency situations in less than 5mins! Especially aftermath of motor accidents... Thumbs up to LRU!!

Those Guys were my saving grace last week on third mainland bridge. God bless them. Ambode for 2nd and third term in Office. Thank you Ambode for not bowing to pressure to allow VIO that have come to steal and destroy back on lagos road. You have my vote.

You just muddled up everything bro. even though I dislike obj but what you wrote about that Sango bridge is not true.



Sango bridge project was part of old lagos -Abeokuta expressway project awarded to Julius Berger by the obj regime. The project was done in faces and the contractor did a poor job and still they did not finished the project till obj left government. Both ogd and Dimeji played huge role in making sure Yar'adua continued where obj stopped because it was becoming an abandoned project but Dimeji was the main person that saw to the completion of that bridge and it was still finished by Julius Berger not ferma. the politics behind the commission is a story for another day but obj was no where near the bridge on the day of the commission and the bridge was commissioned by the then governor Gbenga Daniel before the arrival of the speaker Dimeji Bankole

Honestly sometimes I just call their emergency number to appreciate them for the work they are doing. I haven't had the cause to call them for work but I have clearly seen them several times when assisting stranded drivers. I wish all sectors in Nigeria can be like the LRU.

Of course in Nigeria. This starter with Lekki concession company since 2009. If you are involved in any form of incident on Lekki Epe exp. The Route & incident officers of LCC will assist you at any time of the day without collecting a dine. Nigeria is moving forward. Man.

This is VERY commendable. The LRU has been denying the Nigerian public service spirit of lethargy and unseriousness. Proud of him

[quote author=yeankhar49 post=68139794]Was dashing out of Lagos to meetup a 4:00 p.m speaking engagement at Osogbo - Osun State.

At about 11a.m, with the early morning rain still pouring down, i negotiated Osborne/Foreshore Road-Ikoyi inward 3rd mainland Bridge. Suddenly my car tyres hit some metal shrapnel hidden underneath the flood on the lanes. A little movement towards Adeniji/Adekunle and Gboa!! Two tyres went FLAT.

Getting stuck on #3MB is not an experience you wish for. Before i could blink - #ALAYE's (3 Area Boys/Street Urchins) from Adeniji Adele were already jogging towards me.

They started demanding #OwoILe. 20K!!!!!!.....I'm like - can you sight any ATM machine in the car? Trust the Area Boy instinct in an average Lagosian, i started wording them. They started getting unruly and i was calculating my next moves incase they try getting physical. Their chairmen were calling from under the bridge for updates and they were like....Bobo yi o cooperate o (He's not cooperating o). Network was horrible and when my phone could find a  bar, i quickly called my wife to call #LASEMA ( @lasemasocial )and my mechanic to get tyres and meet me up.

In less than 5 minutes  and i'm not kidding, this #LASEMA Agent - MR OWOLABI OLAWALE JUBRIL rode in on his bike. He already envisaged the situation and notified a Government Patrol convoy on his way coming. At their arrival ALL THE BOYS TOOK TO THEIR HEELS.

He took charge - Setup Cone barriers on the road to condone off other motorist in the rain till my mechanic joined me, approximately in about an .

This good gesture started with Route and Incident department of Lekki concession company since 2009. If you are involved in any incident along the Lekki Toll road. The R&I officer will assist you without collecting a dine. Laudable.

Yes thats why he deserves a big reward. In the land of the afonjas touts like to oppress. Imagine someone's vehicle had issues and they decide to extort. There should be a law against such actions. I been to several states and cities and its only lagos i have seen that if your car breaks down in a territory you will pay a fine. Other than that your car must not break down around a military base but they wont ask you to pay fine. They would just deflate your tyres

After we were done, i requested to give him some cash as appreciation, HE DECLINED. Requested for his account details - HE DECLINED. Just said I AM DOING MY JOB. He only permitted me to take his pictures and i codedly snapped his bike plate number. I was not only impressed, I was DAZED.
This post is to celebrate MR OWOLABI OLAWALE JUBRIL (Bike Number -  LRU- 008 LA) for being such a RARE Nigerian and to LASEMA (@lasemasocial ) for such amazing, timely and Speedy response.
You only get to experience such social service abroad but right here in @akinwunmiambode 's LAGOS, it is HAPPENING.
SHOUT OUT TO EVERY SOCIAL WORKER OUT THERE. #May29th #DemocracyDay
Perhaps we shouldn't give up on Nigeria, there's still hope undecided

God bless Mr Owolabi
