If you live and work in Lagos, the Biblical injuction that says "redeem the time", should be taken more seriously. I was concerned about folks that spend 2 hours to get to work and 2 hours to get back home. That is four hours in traffic every day. In other words for every six days yo go to work, you lose 24 hours to traffic--One day of your life is lost to traffic every six days.

But why can't we think right in Lagos--citizens and government. Our roads are bad, so cars cannot move fast. Our drivers are untrained, so they don't know the difference between fast lane and service lane. There is no mass transport system, so everyone strives to go to work with his vehicle. Most cars are poverty-striken, so they break down on our roads and cause hold-ups. Our people have become inconsiderate and insensitive and impolite that a bus can decide to stop in the middle of the road to pick someone or drop someone...because he is in a hurry to park properly, he would rather delay others.

What about the thought of Akpogbon juction, off Marina, Lagos? How do you describe the feeling that you feel when you know that the traffic is slowing down because the law enforcement has collaborated with the 'danfo' drrivers who wants to pick passengers by the road side?

I would have given up unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!
