THE AJAH GRIDLOCK




 This week has been a very frustrating one for Lagosians, especially those around the Lekki-Ajah environs.

The first two days of the week, it was a  terrible traffic situation (or what we can call, 'cars on slow motion') as a result of the fuel scarcity which led to unending queues at the few fuel stations that were selling.

Today, it was a total gridlock/roadblock. For me, it was a case of 'double wahala for deadi bodi... According to an eye witness, protesters had blocked the road because an elderly woman had been hit and killed by a vehicle.

I feel so sorry for her family; I pray her soul rests in peace.

But is it right for thousands of other innocent road users to suffer because of this? Is it even right for 'area boys' to just block the government road because a man killed someone?

See more photos of the situation after the cut..



In these photos, people are walking to their places of work. 

I really do not know, what do you think about this situation?

  3. These poeple have just decided to keep store their fuel so that they can sell at a high price later when the price increases. May God save this country! We all want a change n a beta nigeria, but no one is willing to take the lead. Everyone from the president down to the common men are all engaged in one corrupt practise or the other. So until we decide to make a change things will continue to get worse
