God forbid! Such evil and backwardness, chai! Demons |
Lagosians that support reopening of the toll gate in lekki, especially those that stay on the mainland should please support this move for good roads all around Lagos. If you leave your house as a Lagosian with your car and come back home without having payed at least N500 in toll then you are a bad citizen. |
helinues:Please how are roads in Surulere, Yaba, ikeja, Oshodi, Festac... maintained? How are they maintained? Can we please put toll gates at every major road in Lagos to maintain the roads? Lekki people should not be the only ones enjoying good road, we need good road in the whole Lagos, so we need more toll gates everywhere in Lagos. |
Jerryherd: ![]()

Topleague:Can we please put toll gate in Ikenna, surulere, apapa, festival, satellite, yaba, ajegunle... Please we need toll gates at all these places |
capitalzero:I’m telling you, since we need to maintain the roads. The detractors claim the toll at lekki is used to maintain the road. So how do we maintain all other roads in Lagos without toll? |
Jerryherd:Do you mind sharing a video? |
Can anyone tell us the last time the president had a live chat with the media? The last time according to my recollection was during the presidential election NTA did a meeting with him and Osinbajo. That was almost 2 years ago. Why is the president of a country afraid of a live media session? Will Buhari finish his tenure without ever appearing live again? Does it mean that from now till 2023, we will never get a live media interaction with him? That I definitely not right. |
Every major street in Lagos should have a toll gate erected similar to that along Lekki Epe expressway. I propose that a fee of N150-N200 should be implemented per pass to help Lagos State in Revenue Generation, because how do we expect these roads to be maintained without toll? Toll gate at Herbert Macauley Way - Fee N200 Toll gate at Funsho Williams - Fee: N200 Toll gate at Allen Avenue - Fee N150 Toll gate at Oshodi-Oworonshoki Expressway - Fee N150 Toll gate at Lagos-Badagry Expressway - Fee N200 .... Finally, Toll gate at your house, if you are in support of the toll gate at lekki-epe reopening. |
Nigerians are not yet angry enough ![]() and of course, you have those so called "youths" who are ready to die for these evil men, should people rise up to protest; the betrayers, the tribalists, and other bloodsuckers who love to perpetuate till eternity, the culture of suffering and smiling amongst Nigerians from generation to generation. Just imagine that this is not enough? Left to me, allocation should be around 1-10 billion only. In 2020, N125 billion was allocated to the National Assembly in the budget, while N134 billion was allocated to the parliament in the 2021 budget. |
uuzba:but the same Nigerians fight themselves to remain one, despite them overtly showing hate towards dissimilar tribes so once again, how is it not our fault? I'm sure if it's the whites that were joined together, like say, france, england, germany and so on, I'm sure they would have come together by now to sort themselves out, but not the black man and certainly not the black man in Nigeria Instead of the black man in Nigeria to fight to break apart from the union forced upon him by a white oppressor, he fights to keep the absurdly heterogenous society to the detriment of progress. Same way the average black man in Nigeria fight for their corrupt masters like Tinubu, IBB, IBori, Atiku... |
Farki:when you said smelly gutters, I just shook my head. All around Nigeria, smelly open gutters, such rot. I was walking around in Victoria Island, which should be like London, a place that should be bubbling with tourist, and what did I see... OPEN GUTTERS, right in the heart of V.I. I even paused to look closely and it was so irritating, You'd see stuff that looks like poo mixed with algae and the whole thing will just be bubbling How can tourists walk next to such open gutters right in one of the top cities in the country and not think we are animals? You will know a serious government when they pay attention to things that seem little like building sidewalks instead of open gutters filled with feces in full view of the public. |
danvault:don't mind that dude. how can a city center now become analogous to the outskirts, chai they will say weird things to continue enslaving Nigerians anyway they can. I mean, the poverty capital of the world, erects tollgate right in the middle of the city and the same citizens suffering will be cheering them on |
Tetehjewels:So now, toll gate right in the middle of the city, right next to Oriental HOTEL, is now on the outskirts of Lagos? What won't you evil people say to support your oppressors Black people are proving time and time again, that they can not manage a society or country. |

That road seems to no longer be a PPP sef
|
Just imagine going back to chaotic traffic at the toll gate, caused by the government. At least, it is clear for all who have eyes to see, that the government here is responsible for inflicting incredible pain on it's citizens
|
It seems the only people in support of the toll gate re-opening are the government and their social media agents
|
If only we had the power to put these corrupt governors in jail As most Lagosians have testified, there has been no traffic at the toll plaza on lekki epe since it went out of operation. So you pay toll to endure hours of traffic, while your car is getting bashed left and right due to the chaos at the toll gate. Then you make your way through the gate and you are greeted by a 10km stretch of road with NO LANE MARKINGS (except for a few meters), few functioning street lights, potholes and crazy drivers with zero law enforcement... They claim they lost billions in these few months that it has been shutdown, so think about it, how much money have they made since it has been in operation all these years? How many billions? For those that keep shouting PPP up and down, how much has been paid back and how much is left? They probably don't know, but will be the first to shout PPP, to further their corrupt masters continued graft. |
seunmsg:Don’t put words in my mouth. I am in support of the toll at lekki-ikoyi bridge for instance, cause it was BUILT FROM SCRATCH and solves a problem. Lekki Epe is meant to be the free alternative to ikoyi, while lekki-ikoyi bridge should be the tolled and FASTER alternative to ikoyi. Imagine if the federal government decided to place a toll on the third mainland bridge after the current repair work ends. How well would that sit with majority of Lagosians who would now have to pay N200 to use the third mainland bridge? Not too well I presume, because that is a free road they’ve become accustomed to. Now imagine tolling a 4th mainland bridge, do you think there would be as much, if any, outcry over the tolling of such a bridge? Probably not, since commuters know they would still have the option of a free 3rd mainland bridge, should they elect not to pay the toll to use the 4th. If the government wants to build new audacious projects and toll them, then that debate can be had, but we cannot have a debate for tolling roads already in existence simply because they repaired such roads or upgraded them. |
seunmsg:Seunmsg, one of the chief advocates for mass suffering, I wonder, do you run on tears or something? Always on the negative side of history. Here you are again, defending an illegal toll gate, despite the respite commuters have gotten these past few months the toll has been inoperable. |
Mynd44:This excuse is not tenable Have you ever been to Houston? You have the Sam Houston toll way for instance which has alternative highways if you want to avoid the toll. Note I said “Alternative HIGHWAYS”, not alternative one lane, pothole ridden, market roads. That lekki epe toll gate is the very definition of illegality and the cause of mass suffering. Why would you ever advocate for your people to suffer, I just don’t get it. |
ba7man:Wow! So you put gate in front of a road that was already leading to people’s house, then you now say if they can’t pay they should turn around Naija sha and it’s people Collectively, the majority push for bad policies, then turn around to wonder why Nigeria is dead last in almost everything. |
buckeyemedia:I don’t give a flying pig about your demigod I’m asking why you are so vehemently in support of an evil toll gate, making for one of the most expensive roads on the world. What is your benefit in seeing something that causes chaos, mass suffering and extortion continue? If you want, you can put toll gate in front of your house. In fact, turn your house gate to toll gate, so that anytime you pass, you will remit that money to the government. Are you not happy that traffic has reduced by several orders of magnitude? If we were to quantify the reduction in traffic as a percentage, we would be taking of close to a 100 percent reduction of traffic. From chaos, to breezy... But this upsets you, doesn’t it? You can’t have us having anything good can you? People now get to work on time and refreshed... Emergency vehicles now have a better chance or quelling emergencies... Shuttle times have greatly reduced... .... But all this upsets you doesn’t it? You fight so hard to keep your brothers and sisters in bondage. |
If you ever wonder how Nigeria got so bad, just read comments here People stripping naked in the market square to defend their oppressors who pilfer and pillage. Just look at the typical example of ease of traffic. Despite the fact that people testify to no more traffic on lekki epe due to removal of the toll gate, these evil people on this thread wanting the gates re-instated, don’t mind that chaos and traffic will return. They are always on the side of chaos, always. They support it when military kills civilians, when politicians steal, police brutalizes... See dem shouting for the toll gate to return as they are eager, very eager to return to mass suffering. The fact that commuters on that route presently have ease of traffic and peace of mind irks them, it upsets the evil ones badly, like, “how dare they enjoy anything good in this land called Nigeria, we must return them to hardship and chaos” |
buckeyemedia:What are you saying? and why are you defending robbery of your fellow citizens so vehemently? Do you receive a percentage of the toll fee? If you don’t, then I mean, sigh, sigh sigh |
hush15:Forget about state, even on the road you pay for, you won’t see see lanes. Compare that to third mainland bridge, a FREE road with lane markings and street lights. The corruption on lekki epe is through the roof... I’m talking MEGA corruption... MOST EXPENSIVE ROAD IN THE WORLD, with no lanes, no street lights, and no law and order. |
infogeneral:What area do you live? Do you pay the toll everyday? |
I read today how HISBAH destroyed drinks at a Hotel establishment and this is not the first time they've done this. How come though, the military isn't sent after them? I have never heard of HISBAH being described as an illegal police force by ANYBODY IN GOVERNMENT! The IGP, COAS, Presidency, SENATE, HOUSE.... All silent regarding the LEGALITY of HISBAH. What makes HISBAH legal and Amotekun and ESN "illegal"? Personally, I'd rather have state police instead of all these shadow forces? |
badaru911:The lights I am referring to were not malfunctioning though. It was clear for all road users to see that the lights were cycling normally. |
YoonSung81:Oh my gosh, EXACTLY! So you know! We can try to overlook it, but how many things will we overlook in this country? |
