@funmiogunkoya So true. This current mini-renaissance occurring now in Nigeria could all go to shit if the military performs another coup. But the longer time established from the last military regime, the harder it will be for them to take over again.

@Theeboy007

the problem is that will there be much development outside lagos (though some other parts are picking up e.g. Jigawa who is providing 20,000-50,000 jobs for the poor).

Damn Fashola is really trying... God bless the guy. Also God bless the hardworking taxi drivers..

the plan is great but honestly does not benefit the average lagosian...bottom line is that most people in lagos are barely making it let alone have such high prices for travelling from one side of town the the other...pricing arrangements should be reconsidered to benefit the everyday citizen
