*Ileke-IdI:

So what exactly do they call those stop points where police checks for "papers" and asks for money?

Sam Milla:

heard that on 98.3 fm in lagos this evening. if that will fix our roads, fine. everything in this country depend on oil.

Demdem:

These guys are simply useless. Vast majority of Nigerians could be easily fooled but i refuse to be.

[b]The other day before these tolls were demolished OBJ increase the cost of fuel and he promised that part of the funds will be channeled to FERMA for the maintenance of the roads. One of the palliative measures he promised and did was the demolition of these toll gates.

Years after, only God knows if these funds are being given to FERMA because FERMA seems not to be doing anything. Cost of fuel hasnt gone down in price and the govt is planning to return these toll gates. its so unfortunate that Nigerians generally do have a very short memory. The PDP govt knows this and easily making use of this fault of ours to harm us.

SAMMILLA, it wont solve or fix any road. its simply part of the grand deception that has been in play since 1999.[/b]

Beaf:

As long as the tolls aren't handled by a mega thief like IBB, I'm cool. It would actually be quite welcomed if we see that our tolls are actually going toward fixing the roads.
Oil cannot pay for everything in the country, while the people lay back and dose off. We need to find other sources of funding, or we will surely sink below the surface; all over the World, roads are maintained with taxes from various sources, not with money from exports. Its just wrong to do that.

anishe:

This is a clarion call to all Nairalanders and Nigerians in diaspora to please come back home.

GEJ is performing. He has removed fuel subsidy and he intends to re-introduce toll gate on our highways. In fact, PDP is performing.

PLEASE COME BACK HOME

logica:

Toll-gates should only be built to charge trailers and lorries for now; as far as I'm concerned they are the ones causing major damage to highways. This will force haulage companies to actually start considering rail as a better option. Tolling cars should come much later; not now.

9icest:

You should kindly shut up sometimes. You are actually the most useless person here because you dont even have an opinion.
I heard GEJ gives you a monthly check for your conscience and your brain. Just leave Nigerians alone and go spend your filthy money.
And I hope the money brings you death and sorrow.
