Photos: See how KAI officials have forced Lagosians to make use of the Pedestrian bridge

There is human congestion on the Ojota pedestrian bridge this morning as hefty KAI officials in Lagos have been positioned at both ends of the Ojota bus stop along the ever busy Ikorodu road to arrest and fine anyone who crosses the express road. Many passengers have been forced to make use of the pedestrian bridge as they fear being arrested and then fined. See more photos after the cut...

    2. Why can't there be a second or third bridge if the human traffic is too much. I hope that bridge was built to contain that capacity of people to avoid a collapse while pedestrians are on the bridgr.

  14. This Nigeria is just funny. When all this infrastructures are being constructed is the population of the region being considered. Look at what is happening on lekki roads, did government think with all those infrastructures being developed that more people wouldn't locate to the island. I keep sayin this all this old men should leave the office & let the younger generation run & manage the country. Enough of the penny wise pound foolish mentality.

  19. Problem is,will this enforcement be sustained?

    Why should grown ass buffoons be forced to stay safe. That is how Nigerians have exported this trademark behaviour to other parts of the world. Something is wrong with their DNA

  20. Human congestion? Really?
    You've been to New York right? That's the definition of human congestion yet things work smoothly in New York because the citizens follow the rules.
    A bridge is built yet Nigerians will rather run aimlessly crossing the road. Do you know how many accidental deaths have occurred because of this?
    As a blogger you have to think before you write because sometimes you surprise me at how uneducated and illiterate you come across.
    So you will rather the backwardness continue of crossing the street like mad men and women?
    Stop indirectly trying to start something when there's nothing!

    This is good news! Nigerians hate instructions and laws. So this to me is again good news!

  30. This cant last! All the "Its good comment"; even motorist are at the risk of the bridge crashing on their head if that capacity wasnt planned for. Moreso, this will most likely happen even in the evenings, do the maths.

    Hopefully this won't expose pedestrians to crime.

  31. You can't say FORCED people as an headline. How can doing the right thing, read an headline of FORCED. when it should be encouraging citizens to do the right thing.

  32. This is totally wrong, people should be made to value thier lives, by 9pm they are back crossing the expressway again...tell me who is deceiving who????

  33. lagosians like force to obey every rules. i think this is better, but i will like to ask if the bridge is strong enough to stand the wait of thousands everyday? lol.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Trust me...that bridge is not built for this. The disadvantages to this is more than the advantage. People lives are at risk the more. Let's think about it. This has just one advantage n lots of disadvantages.
