lamentor78:And when you ask them how much the toll gate generates,they will say they don't know,dont have the records,all Na scam, the people you voted for don't love you. All they think is what can we do again to make these people uncomfortable instead of making live better for the people,they make it more miserable, the nonentities in government don't know why government exist. |

lexy2014: It is your responsibility as citizens to be the watchdog of government by demanding information like SERAP and BudgetIT are doing. You need to demand accountability. You should not obstruct development. That’s what they do in developed countries. |

texazzpete: I am not a traitor. But I am sensible. You must demand accountability from government, not obstruct progress and development. The citizens abroad demand accountability. They don’t obstruct development. If government is concessioning, you must demand transparency and watch how this is done to ensure accountability. |

Jerryherd: At that time the tollgate process didn't have the technology to work in Nigeria's climate, cash transfer between the motorist and tollgate always ended up in someone's personnel pocket, hence it was the right decision to remove the tollgate at that time. With the advent of electronic payment systems across the country, cash transfer is now electronic, reducing the human factor. |

Extortion in the highest level. Cost of transport fare on affected route will automatically shoot up. This is crazy. What then do they do with other taxes generated from the citizenry. Increase VAT, fuel price, bank transaction fee etc, still not enough for them. This is just too mean of this government against the people Islie: |

What about traffic it will cause, they need to use faster automated systems, humans are slow on this type of task. The roads too need to be very wide. 1 Like |

lexy2014: They use taxes to provide health, security, educational and social services in developed countries. But the taxes are not enough most times. They bring in private entrepreneurs to invest in public utilities like building roads and health services etc. They recoup their money by managing the services and collecting tolls and bills. But the people and government ensure there is accountability in everything they do. The citizens willingly pay the taxes. If they feel the taxes are too much, they will either vote out the politicians or go to court to challenge these taxes etc. 1 Like |

Re: Tollgates To Return As FG Grants Individuals Licence To Build, Maintain Highways by lexy2014: 5:47pm On Feb 23, 2021 |
drlateef: I believe my questions were very straightforward. D first question: 1. how do d govts in developed countries u are referring to use d taxes they collect? I didn't ask u whether d taxes are enough or not. I didn't ask u if they recoup d money or how they recoup d money. I didn't ask u about accountability. I didn't ask u about d attitude of westerners towards taxation and I didn't ask u if they go to court or not. I simply asked: how do d govts in developed countries u are referring to use d taxes they collect? My second question went thus: "How does d govt in Nigeria use d taxes it collects? Any difference?" |

This is a welcome development. Now we need another policy like this for Railways. FG has failed, let's localize our development. This is another form of Restructuring |

Fashola the corrupt thief is at it again. Totally clueless and corrupt. The only thing he knows is to increase prices and extort money from the masses. Same thing he did as Lagos Governor, then Minister of Power and now as Minister of Works and Roads. Obasanjo cancelled tolls on the roads because he increased fuel price. This Buhari govt. has increased fuel price multiple times, and so why the toll fees again? They increase prices with nothing to show for it!! Useless govt. |
