FBI was not involved.

I don’t think FBI is going to come down to Nigeria to arrest Kyari.

They have done their part, the same way the contractor that busted Ganduje did his part.

Meanwhile, when they asked President Buhari about it, he was saying he doesn’t know the technology used, chai!

Then he said whether Ganduje could not have sent someone to collect the money.

Red-handed

As in, Ganduje was caught red-handed and till today, his videos are all over YouTube.

Yet he wasn’t arrested, queried, or even blacklisted, instead he is being chosen to lead different groups here and there.

So all of you shouting Kyari this and that better take a chill pill, cause what is more incriminating, being caught red handed or being under investigation?

Sometimes Nigeria will just depress you.

Human rights violations everywhere

The oppressors in this country love to dehumanize the citizens so much.

Monogamy:
You are not getting the point, do you?

Return back to your home state, ask your state governor to provide high way express way for the state..

Lagos is far far better than any state in Nigeria, that's undisputable fact

Lagos is a slum, Lagos is overrated, Lagos traffic is too hectic, Why not stay put in your home region.

Have any of you guys said anything good about Lagos except downgrading it?

This route affects me personally so I must speak, as it’s within my God given rights to do so.

Have I ever said anything good about Lag? Of course I have.

I praised Fashola them for the lekki link bridge, which till today, is still a great bridge COMPLETE WITH LANE MARKINGS AND STREET LIGHTS, really a joy to drive on.

I praised Ambode for destroying those roundabouts at lekki epe that Fashola built, and replacing them with traffic lights which greatly reduced the traffic on that road. I even opened threads with pictures showing the effectiveness of the traffic lights compared to the roundabouts which many untrained lagosian drivers did not know how to navigate.

...


but na wa sha, all this arguments because I want government to paint lanes on a very strategic highway?

One would think I was advocating for something evil.

Monogamy:
Please and please relocate back to your region, your home state.

It is not a must to reside in obodo Lagos state..

Gov Sanwo Olu since his resumption as Lagos state governor has been on positive side of news, can same be said about your state governor?

Wondering why some of you people just hate for hating sake

Na wa ooo

Someone is asking for a better life for Nigerians, you are here saying I should go to so and so, chai!

Or you don’t think we should get better?

Do you know how chaotic it is driving on a busy road without lanes?

To make matters worse, that is a highway where we have been paying 200 to 300 naira for years to use. How much would it have cost them to paint lanes?

I pray that one day, you will also advocate for good things for your people.

I don’t know why asking for good things is a crime to some Nigerians

People that can’t paint ordinary lane markings on one of the most “prestigious” highways in Lagos, lekki epe

I’m sure a lot of you will think that lane markings are not important, the same way you’d think closing open gutters is not important, chai!

I’m tired of always pointing these things out, but I will continue to point them out until they are fixed, God willing!

When you go to driving schools in western nations, you learn all about lanes, as the white folks place great importance on them.

Every lane marking has a meaning, white solid lanes, dashed lanes, yellow lanes and so on...

These things promote law and order in a society and help police enforce laws involving lane discipline

NGpatriot:
You must have missed this portion of the same expressway...


Your post is dead on arrival, it failed.

God Bless Lagos State

God Bless Gov. Sanwo Olu

God bless Asiwaju Tinubu.

Why is it that when someone wants the best for Nigeria, all you guys come out with reasons why we shouldn’t do the things that will rectify the situation?

You complain about roads, they come out and say but other roads are good.

You complain about electricity, they come out and say it’s not that bad.

I wonder what kind of Nigeria you guys really want walahi.

While they are both there, they should check London highways and see if they have lane markings on them.

Below is the current picture of lekki epe expressway, with no lane markings as they have all faded away. A highway in one of the most highbrow areas in black man country; Nigeria.

Why can’t they copy the good things from these countries they always run away to?

Now they are gearing up to bring back tolls on that road, with no lane markings and street lights that hardly work.

We might have special individuals, but as a collective, we are mediocre

In the part of Nigeria you currently are, does the government supply you tap water? Or did you dig borehole or buy from tanker?

Have you ever seen police squad cars “Pull people Over”? If it wasn’t for Hollywood, would you even know what that means?

Then we are still struggling to get power levels above 5,000MW, which is not nearly enough for even a section of the country.

When you travel abroad to western nations, you don’t even know where the gutter is, you will be looking and looking for gutter but you won’t find it. Come back to black man Nigeria, and be greeted by smelling open gutters all over the nation, but black man no send

...


Some are happy to remain like this, but few are asking questions, seeking for a better representation of our race by building great black nations. But of course this is the minority, the majority no send

theTranscriber:
what kind of self hate is this?

If you hate your skin so much
Go and tell a racist white man that you wanna be his slave!
Go to Libya and be a slave!
Fool!

Shut up with that useless talk abeg, the black man is soooo inferior when it comes to building society, it’s not even fair.

Go out and take a drive on your roads and highways and see animalistic behaviors of drivers with no single police squad car pulling people over

Nonsense!!!!

Would you black people even know what it means for police to PULL SOMEONE OVER if not for Hollywood?

Rubbish

Keep yanning that “Naija go better”, but you can see disorder and chaos right before your eyes every single day, God forbid!

Who do us this thing abeg?

Even the so called emergency number, 112, does not work.

Try it now and see whether it rings.

So who do you call then to report crimes as they happen?

What a lawless society, no wonder the top police officers are being caught taking bribes

Tell me when last you saw a bad driver pulled over?

Lawless people

No lanes on a major highway like lekki epe

See drivers driving in a zig zag pattern.

Honestly though, even where there are lanes, drivers won’t obey them.

Do these chaotic roads and driving experiences even phase the average Nigerian? It seems most of the drivers love the lawlessness.

When people start complaining about the black man, they will say you have inferiority complex. Why won’t someone feel inferior as a race when in 2021 we still can’t manage traffic and punish offenders.

Politicians never even talk about it, like how they never talk about beautification of streets and closing open gutters, because maybe the majority of Nigerians don’t even care about such things.

The black man is something else men...

Look at the pics of lekki epe expressway and tell me how many lanes you see, if at all you see any

Juxtapose this with the pic of “white man land” and see how organized they are.

Honestly I feel like crying just knowing how far back we are as a nation and a race, and even worse, no one wants to do anything about it

Meanwhile see their bustop just 50 meters away, but they won’t use it, because they know Nigeria is a lawless country.

I pray to God seriously to give us leaders that care, God please, we can’t be a lawless nation forever.

The bus stop was designed by engineers to allow for free flowing traffic, so that buses veer into the bus lane and out when done picking or offloading, but they won’t use it, instead they choose to stop right on the road and add to traffic.

Imagine if London buses just stop in the middle of the road to pick passengers instead of using bus lanes and stops.

God please help us, or should I run for governor? Who will support me?

Meanwhile buses are already starting to block a lane, abandoning their official bustop

Sunday morning and chaos is already building.

See truck and Okada running red light while LCC official sits down chilling.

No police to chase them down and we say we want to progress as a nation? Are we kidding ourselves?

I just came back from driving and if you see the chaos eh...

People horning behind you in traffic as if there is anywhere to go. One frustrated individual behind me, after horning at me to no avail, just drove his car into the bush path on lekki epe expressway and there will obviously be no consequence for him in NIGERIA.

but why is that?

Why is it that if you travel as a Nigerian to most countries, and decide to drive on pedestrian walkways and off-road bush paths, you face consequences? Then you come back home and face zero consequences for being an ABSOLUTE PSYCHOPATHIC MANIAC driver?

Then forget about lane discipline and the likes, where drivers switch lanes faster than transistors, in order to gain 100 milliseconds of time in a race to nowhere, sigh! You even find buses and tankers attempting to switch lanes last minute never minding the cars on their blind spot.

Then the danfos, the almighty criminal drivers of the roads, seemingly invisible to any law enforcement whatsoever, and it is with this veil of invisibility which bolsters their maniacal tendencies, that they lord over other drivers. They never ever stop at already created bus-stops, instead, preferring to stop on the road to pick passengers, even if it means stopping right in traffic to load bags of rice belonging to a passenger.

These danfos slow down the rate of traffic where ever they are found, and of course in Lagos, that is everywhere, so you can imagine the impact these folks have on traffic. One a 3 lane road at lekki epe, you’d often find that danfos have blocked 2 of those lanes, leaving only one lane open, the audacity!!


With all these problems mentioned, who will save us? Do we need a Superman type hero to rescue us or what? Maybe the justice league or the avengers should come down to Lagos to enforce traffic rules and serve out punishment for malfeasance? So if we choose not to live in a far fetched fantasy, then in reality, who do we call?

The police, oh the police! I just don’t even know what to say about you guys. You stand at junctions all day, or sit in your car waiting for nightfall to erect your makeshift ventures in extortion, rushing like children pushing barricades around to build forts to funnel customers in. Maybe blaming you guys isn’t fully justified though, given your remunerations, but one of you ought to let your superiors know that there is money in enforcing driving and traffic rules, shikena!

Then there is the government in charge of the police, what are you guys doing? Do you even care? Or is governorship all about discussing billions in projects? Won’t you drive round your city, or remotely check in via CCTVs to see how things are going? You build roads without lane markings, adding to the already chaotic driving situation, then you don’t even train the police on what to look for.


I suggest that Police officers go to Houston Texas for training on how to patrol traffic, enforce traffic rules and apprehend those that break the law.

As I was driving, I was imagining I was a police officer and I saw so many people I could pull over. The danfos, the people changing lanes with no signal and at the last minute, the people driving on two lanes at once, the people that endangered others by merging last minute... so much money to be made by the government, who could then feed that money back to improve the squads in a return loop. The criminal drivers have to be caught while driving, you can’t mount road blocks or stand at junctions and expect to enforce the law and if police does not enforce the law, then the chaos will persist, leading to never ending traffic even with somewhat good roads. Even those that are meant to be strategically at junctions in their cars at traffic lights are nowhere to be found. Today in Lagos, there is no consequence for running the traffic light, as long as you have space in front of you to zoom off.

We can’t continue to live like animals, abeg! I strongly believe we can do better, may God help us all, amen!

IFSHR:
Raise money and buy seat cover.....

Your car interior matters during inspection.

Okay, I don’t like that universal seat cover, so I guess I have to repair it.

Thanks for the heads up bro!

I snapped by temporary drivers license paper, and the app did not accept it. It’s like they want the license card itself.

Na wa ooo

Hey guys, hope y’all are having a great Friday morning.

I have a few questions for the house please.

I have a Toyota I want to drive in Uber, but the car has some issues.

The main issue I think might affect inspection is the torn seats in the car. All the seats are torn and I’m looking at the cost of repair and wondering if it’s worth it for now.

-Please guys, if I were to go for an inspection now, will the car pass with the torn seats?

-can I have multiple inspections done? Like if you fail the first one, can you make repairs and come back for another inspection?

-finally guys, there is a “Situation Survey” that must be taken, any tips on that?

Thank you guys

Nigeria is funny

You will hear people happy that white countries are returning stolen artifacts from Benin, and the black people here will be shouting "Chai, white man don do us strong tin ooo"

Yet, when you mention to these same people that Nigeria, a vestige of white supremacy, slavery and the likes, should be disbanded, they will all shout "One Nigeria", lol

Confusion everywhere

KazikageSama:
Naira will actually suffer for this move Sir.
1. Our banks are not capable of handling the volumes of daily FX exchanges over the counter yet. From experience, I can assure you that banks are still struggling with handling, reporting and managing Form As, Form Ms, BTA and PTA requests.
2. All countries have BDC (ALL), what most of them have just done is put the strategic managements under financial institutions. If would have been better if there is a roadmap to allow banks take over these BDCs first before this outright ban.
3. With the CBN's $100 FX limit on cards, expect people to hoard their dollars more which will put more strain on naira.
4. BDCs today are the number 1 agents of controlling (mobbing up and selling dollar into the economy), with most items off out Form M list, these guys are provide the dollars that most businesses use to import their foreign materials.

Emefiele for me has been the most questionable CBN Gov., his policies are questionable and his way of reasoning quite archaic. I'm certain he has some funny reasons behind this but I'm not sure it was well thought through.

I won't be surprised if we have to devaluate further to meet impending FX needs within the next couple of months.

I may be wrong and I pray I am

All countries have BDC, but is it Aboki that they have? The ones that will say any price they like at anytime based on who the customer is?

I have been to western countries where their BDC are operated in a disciplined manner, with firm prices displayed on boards, so every customer pay the same price. No selling at 500 to person A and then selling at 480 to person B and then at 510 to person C...

Why can't that be a possibility in Nigeria? Why must we be searching for Aboki in market, hotels and so on to buy and change dollar?

If you know how these guys cheat eh, and then who would you report the incident to?

jneutron4000:
They are not doing any damage. With the unitary system of government in Nigeria this act is needed to save your ethnicity politically or else you will just wake up one day and find out that those ruling you in your LG are not even from your land. We all know that in every states and regions in Nigeria, after the population of the owners of that land, the highest number of non indigenous people in that land will be igbos because they love to mass migrate into others people space and love to impose their political interests on you. Yorubas do not determine who should be their governors in the east, so why should we allow them to be determining ours for us?. When we have Yoruba Nation, I will kick against it but as far as we are still in this contraption omo be wise in o.

See the way this dude is supporting election rigging and malpractice

and he got 5 likes?

Such a scary country this Nigeria, filled with stupidity.

Such stupidity men, it’s too much abeg, chai!

Black man sha, where is that rossikk guy sef? Come and see something ooo

INCREDIBLE007:
do you know the population of easterners in Yoruba land ?

do you know the population of other tribes in Yoruba land ?

as a Nigerian youth we all have that JAPA preparedness within us to move to usa, UK, Canada and anywhere abroad
so far we can be sure of getting qualitative live there.

do you know an Arab man is the foreign secretary of UK, is he white ?
do you know how many black people are ministers in canada ? are they white ?
do you know how many blacks are political office holders in USA? most of them immigrants

and if where the youths of this country are desirous of moving to by crook or by hook
are led by outsiders, do you Think if same applies here,
our country will not be better 4 it.



ASK YOURSELF
Elon musk, is very influential and enjoys maximum support in the US , is he not from south Africa?

this amazon man BEZOS, richest man in the world, is a jew

have you heard of Chris Air ? omo 9ja he's doing exploit in USA.

and many others like that

see the support they enjoy from AMERICANS of all races and the American government
and see how many people they've taken out of the unemployment market.

the earlier we do away with tribal mindset and sentiments the better.

Don’t mind all these evil people

To go so low to support rigging in broad daylight with his chest out, so proud!

Such stupidity men

So police can’t shoot all these guys down?

Not even Taser?

No arrests?

Crvrider:
Some where around ikola road to egbeda. The guys where going clubbing and seriously needed to be there, I guess.

As for check points, a whole lot depends on the police and their mood. When the curfew first started, I was caught by aswani police, na 10k I use bail my car.

This Buhari self, the man doings dey surprise me. Are you guys sure he hasn't forgotten he announced a curfew?

Is there still curfew in Nigeria?

I thought it was canceled months ago?

uchdollar111:
You will use an escrow system to transfer the USD to someone that will give you Naira in your bank account at the market exchange rate. How often do you do this kind of transactions?

Not that often, but I am not sure if an escrow service would work, cause I’m using a dorm account which is cash in and out I think.

So do I have to start calling people to buy my physical dollar?

sholatech:
U were scammed. He rode on your ignorance. Most likely due to weekend. Enter any gtb or access bank or fidelity Bank or fcmb branch around that Eko hotel vi axis and ask the security guys or customer care to help you with an aboki that deals with their customers. It's same rate for 100 and 50 dollars bills. Only bills lower than 50 usd such as 5/10 etc that are priced lower.

I truly believe so. I heard it’s because I didn’t carry a 100 dollar bill, but when they sold me last week, even a dollar note was sold at 505.

Thanks bro, I truly believe I was scammed, and the guy was so arrogant.

Next time I will shop around as you said.

Even the 400 is lower than bank rate.

Let's be honest, Nigerians don't want a better society.

When government says register for National Identity, Nigerians would find politics, and something sinister to pin on why they won't register.

Abeg, anything we see, we take am like that.

It really does seem that is the case sometimes, as is evident in our election choices.

Commentor:


See the kind of people that live amongst us.

The perpetrator go still go home, chop like say nothing happen today.

As in...

May God help us!

What kind of country is this becoming though?

How long before we have a real police force, that is well paid, highly skilled and full of technology to stop all these kinds of things?

Our police now that can’t even verify a drivers license remotely, using computers in a patrol vehicle, instead they just stand at junctions, form road blocks...

To be a Nigerian is just something else right now, to say “I’m a Nigerian”.

uchdollar111:
Can you tell the person sending you the dollar to send it online?

If it’s online, what difference would that make?

Would I them transfer to someone?

If I have it on hand, can’t I still get AbokiFX rates at mallam?

He was even saying I’m lucky he’s not selling to me at 350, chai!
