DMerciful:Well it is clear you have chosen to ferment is a stew of victimhood First I did not bring the policy . I am not the government Second What s "Easterner" I do not know what that means all Nigerians use all roads This road is not yet operational and tolling has not started. The FG plans to toll several roads not just this one and this is unlikely to be the first toll gate to start collection Once again what is your proposal ? That the FG should not collect tolls across the country or exempt just this road? You folk are not capable of logical or rational discourse because you are always emotional and sentimental Tell us which road the FG has done in the SS or the SW ? Every one is marginalized |

DMerciful:The only FG tollgates that we have ever known have been in the SW . In the 80s till Obasanjo ended it. At that time there was PH to Enugu Road which was not tolled in fact no other roads were tolled . No one played victim The FG has immediate plans to toll 12 roads .That has been shared on this thread so clearly you are being mischievous 2 Likes |

I thought you guys said Bubu has built roads across the country, why are there no tolls running currently? Lagos-Ibadan will be tolled? Where are the tollgates? Tolling is not the problem, every fg road should be tolled even the ones previously built insofar they'd require maintenance in the future. You're trying to justify Eastern marginalization but failing to do so aribisala0: 1 Like |

Rugaria: Bros calm down!! Have those in Lagos not been paying tolls on Lekki - Epe expressway for years? Before Obasanjo cancelled tolls on roads, were there not tolls on expressways nationwide? As part of the Highway Development & Management Initiative launched by Fashola recently and which should be concluded this year, are not about 12 other road across the country not going to be tolled?? So what's this nonsense about it being only SE?? Besides the old Niger bridge is there as an alternative route if you do not want to pay the toll. |

DMerciful: Lekki Toll gate on Lekki Expressway and Bridge in Lagos is FG Property It is Tolled to recover the money the State spent on rehabilitating it |

DMerciful: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBw_JOE0Ktk Which guys? Guy stop talking like a tout. Address me directly and do not put words in my mouth. I am neither part of nor a spokesman for the government On this thread someone has shared the FG plans to toll several roads You deliberately ignored that because it does not fit into your victimhood narrative. The FG has plans to collect toll from several roads that are already existing Therefore I can only tell you the bitter truth: YOU are a liar and deliberately trying to push a dishonest agenda. Where are the tollgates on the Lagos Ibadan expressway ? That is a childish question borne out of dishonesty |
Re: The Evil Toll Gates At Onitsha Second Niger Bridge by christistruth01: 3:40pm On Mar 15, 2022 |
DMerciful: Lekki Expressway and Bridge is a Federal Highway rehabilitated by the State the effect is the same as using loans the money needs to be recovered so that other new roads and bridges can be Built |

When you've been cornered, you start insulting. You guys have gone to town to shout how Bubu has been completing roads across the country. I asked for toll gates on these roads and you start running from pillar to post. The second niger bridge is being built by Easterners because they'd pay for it, deal with it! aribisala0: 1 Like |

DMerciful:They will arrive in due course. The road is not complete yet is it? Fashola said in the video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBw_JOE0Ktk that toll collection will not start till the road is motorable So to talk of marginalization we should wait till construction is complete and toll collection starts It is legitimate to be watchful if you are fearful of discrimination but talking prematurely just reveals your lack of "sophistication" . Toll collection has not started so wait till that starts before whining |

ednut1: DMerciful: Lekki Expressway and Bridgeis a Federal Road How many Expressways belong to the State ? It was the FG that gave Lagos state permission to use the Lekki Toll gate to recover it's investment on rebuilding the abandoned Federal Road Anybody who doesn't want to pay should go and use the old Niger Bridge Shikena We are praying for at least 2 more Bridges to be built over the Niger to Onitsha within 5 years and you are dragging Toll gate money you are not serious How will the new bridges be built ..go and sit down!! 1 Like |
