Just imagine what we are discussing in Nigeria. .mehn! ! We are in for it.
autojosh:




The ultra-modern Ikeja Bus Terminal was commissioned last year, precisely in March, 2018.

The event organized to commission the facility was attended with so much fanfare. The President of Nigeria – Mohammadu Buhari- did the honours of launching the landmark transport terminal situated in the heart of Ikeja.

Ironically, the terminal was touted as one of the best things to have happened to Lagos in terms of public transportation,. It was for this reason it was dubbed a world-class bus terminal and not bus-stop, especially after critics questioned the rationale of a president commissioning a ‘bus-stop’.

Months after  its commissioning, the imposing public transport facility is yet to be put in use.


See more photos of the commissioned Ikeja Bus Terminal HERE

However, and oddly, renovation work is currently going on there.

The interlocking stones have been uprooted and a number of other things within the terminal are being reconfigured.

Interestingly, part of the reconstruction work going on within the facility is the erection of a privately-owned, but government-approved shopping mall.

The reason for the reconstruction of the Ikeja Bus Terminal is unclear.

The cost of constructing the Ikeja Bus Terminal was not made public. Thus, it is also unclear how much this afterthought will cost the tax payers in Lagos state.

The Ikeja bus terminal will serve as the hub of all transport activities within the Ikeja Zone, serving over 50,000 passengers daily and providing access to many destinations, including Oshodi, Ojota, Iyana-Ipaja, Maryland, Agege, Ogba, CMS, Obalende, and Iyana-Ipaja.


See below photos of the reconstruction work currently going on at the Ikeja Bus Terminal.

Turning the area around the Bus terminal to a shopping mall is not the best. This is all aimed at maximising revenue to the detriment of the sanity of the place and its clearly an afterthought. The whole area becomes congested and its all back to square one. If the land was huge, then its a different case. It looks like the car park spaces meant for short stay drop off or pick up of passengers is now being used for the mall and any spaces left will now be competing as car park for shoppers and it will no longer be convenient for passengers. There should only be a few shops or restaurants selling refreshments and food inside the terminal for passengers.

You have answered your own question.. the reason for the reconstruction is for the private, but government approved shopping to be put into effective use, considering the volume of people or traffic that will run in the terminal and by extension the mall daily

We dey try on a below average level.

The one wey dey tire me be say as a collective people, our cities are dirty and not pleasing to the eyes.

When i look many countries for picture, e dey look clean/neat. Nigeria is just too dusty, dirty, and unpleasant to the eyes through the camera or in person.


We are too intelligent to fall this behind collectively. We suppose dey try above average level.

True talk.....

Reconstructing an already commissioned project Only APC government can do this kind of stupidity.This is another negative on Buhari as a president.

The reconstructed Ikeja Bus Hub after commissioning will ever remain a shame to his credit.Govt of trial & error.

Blind people and thier dumb mentality


A shopping mall is an upgrade, even if it's commissioned, it doesn't matter because the site will be cordoned off for the project if that hub is in use


Try to have positive outlook on life buhari didn't make you poor, your mentality did

Please don't associate Lagos State project with that weak old president, where does he know in Nigeria outside of Katina and Abuja. In 4years how many times has he been to Lagos? The only viable state in Nigeria.

But a mall was included in the original plan (same as Oshodi), and was listed as Phase 2 of the development.
