Thanks for the time taken for your analysis.

Correction on your post: it is Island not 'Highland'

Aside that you did not capture for those that work or connect Obalende / CMS in your analysis.

rat race called nigeria. my first job in 2014 with 140k salary in lekki. used to budget 44k for tfare from ikotun plus food ( sometimes at oshodi or obalande i go chop breakfast, dinner one mama put for ikotun lol)

Was at ojota the other day to get my organic materials.
From ojota to oshodi was 700.
Only one came and called 500.

Ojota to yaba 300
√√√ to onipkanu 200
Hmm crazy

All intracity transportation within the smallest state in Nigeria o

You did well but you can do better.

1. Not everybody knows how much those routes cost before the ban.

So put the previous prices side by side and it'll be far clearer.

2. Nigerias are greedy. No. Nigerians are human beings. Law of demand and supply affects everybody from Lagos to Toronto to Shenzen. If supply of transport reduced, price MUST go up. So place the right blames at the right quarters.

A. The person who banned without replacements

B. Those who keep supporting the ban

C. Those who voted him in because of tribe and party affiliations.

Lagosians don't be worried Sanwo-Olu got our back

Make we kuku just dey use bicycle........ No petrol cost, all that is required is blood............

If Ihedioha reclaims his mandate, then I know something is brewing... smiley

It would have been confirmed that the SE/SS are deliberately being shut out of APC.

GEJ and Madam Patience's visits to Aso rock some days back may have been to sway the Supreme court to favour David Lyon.

If your salary is not attractive in Lagos, you will be working and at the same time you will be using all your salary for transport fares. I got a job in Lekki phase one for #70k, after calculating my T. P to and fro, I've to reject the offer. life in Lagos for lower class people is rubbish. you can spend 3 hours just from Alausa to Egbeda.

What is government doing about this

The masses are suffering the effect, no salary increment and we are spending more on transportation.

At the end is gradually affecting prizes of commodities.

our roads are not suitable for cycling ..even pedestrian foot-part is a struggle for govt to create.To be honest using bicycle to some short distance places won’t be bad.

Let me use my route as a detailed sample
Before:
Estate gate to tollgate: 50
Tollgate to cms: 200
Cms to tollgate(ikeja bus) : 250/300
Tollgate to estate gate: 50
Total = 550/600
Now:
Estate gate to tollgate : 100
Tollgate to cms: 250/300
Cms to tollgate :300/400
Tollgate to estate gate : 100
Total = 750/900
Then you have days where it's higher cause of traffic.

We Nigerians are our own enemies, apart from the politicians who are bent to only loot the treasury dey, we too have alot to play.

Before the ban of keke napep, transport from obalende to Victoria island user to be N100, with only four passengers, but no but that has 16 or 14 passengers now charge N200 to Victoria island, and to even all the bus top.

Believe me, we Nigerians are too greedy, and until we stop our over greediness, Nigeria will never move forward.

Are we the same set of greedy people that wants to take the mantle of leadership from these our over greedy politicians? I am not sure Nigeria can ever move forward.

If you are ever dreaming of a better Nigeria, please wakeup from your slumber.

thank you oo, Nigerians are so wicked always take opportunity of anything, imagine from CMS to obalende that use to b 50 by keke now 100 by bus. I don't no y Lagos gov cant have bodies that will regulate transport in lagos

AutoReportNG:
Now that the Keke and Okada have been banned, there is an upsurge in the fares... Obalende to Falomo used to be #50 before, now its #100 and same applies to all locations in the Island

Some may be right but a review is necessary.

Nice job bro..

Obalende to Keffi junction used to be #50. Is now #100 with Korope "small bus"

Obalende to Falomo used to be #100 and still #100 despite the ban on Keke Marwan.

You see abi......

Bicycles would actually perform better on our roads, the only problem we have are motorist driving attitudes..............

...and minimum wage is 30k.

I'll rather borrow money and buy an old volkswagen beetle than spend this kind of money on transport.

Ojota to oshodi 700 sey wetin happen? fuel na 1k per litre?

dokie:


i have entered keke from Ajah to Novare (shoprite) for 100 at around 8pm in the night.

Shoprite to Lakowe is not a small journey oo

I don't know how you got Ajah to Lakowe for #100 ooo

dokie:

Yeah, it's not actually stable.

Look at Oshodi to Ikotun #250, something that low before.

Sometimes you can get Ajah to Oshodi #400, and #300 in those big red buses. But there's one pack there that charges #500, and when you are coming back, it is cheaper in the morning and afternoon but shoots up in the evening and night.

Hard times

For me...

Weekly fuel of N6,000 × 50 weeks=300k ..

Well, this is Lagos, my home state .

No other state for ajebuter

Olutobasam:

Maybe he got the cab at Abraham adesanya ir he entered those gwogworo buses. I noticed those buses are cheaper.

Ilaje in Ajah to Abraham adesanya #50. Ajah to shoprite is #100... Ajah to Lakowe is #150.

One thing is the prices are not stable, it depends on the driver and on the type of vehicle.

As usual, the Nigerian is blaming the wrong people.
Demand for public transport from your government.
That will start by you exercising your right to vote in the right persons.
