Image
      Lagos State Acting Commissioner of Transportation, Prince Anofiu Elegushi has assured inter-state transport companies currently operating from Jibowu and Yaba axis that the space allocated for their relocation at Ojota Park was more than enough to accommodate them. Speaking on the planned relocation recently, Prince Elegushi said efforts are ongoing to re-arrange the Ojota Park for proper utilisation of the  available space, saying that operators only need to approach the government for allocation of space to continue their operations at the Park. While justifying the ban, Elegushi maintained that there are two basic reasons for the ban saying, “The first has to do with the transport policy of removing inter-state vehicles from Lagos metropolis and taking them a little bit to the outskirts of Lagos so that buses with other colours will not come into the State and run intra-city transport”.

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY WILL INVESTIGATE CRISIS IN SOUTH-EAST-SARAKI.

Image
        1. Following the clash between the military and members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), I hereby call for calm and restraint by all Nigerians so that we would all jointly find the right solution to the current problem rather than worsening the crisis. 2. Our brothers and sisters in the South-east, in particular, should continue to maintain peace and tranquility and go about their lawful business. This crisis will not benefit anybody but would only expose innocent people to unwarranted danger. 3. At this point, Nigerians outside the South-east who have worked to ensure that the crisis does not spread to other parts of the country deserve our commendation. I therefore call for continued efforts to sustain peace, unity and stability in all our communities so as to ensure that all residents, no matter their religion, tribe and creed remain protected and safe under the law. 4. It is also important that commentators and purveyors of informati...

Now they are writing to the governments and the national parliaments of some Western nations to give the impression that they are victims of an ethno-sectarian violence orchestrated by the government, hence they need protection. ”Some of the tools that have been employed by IPOB include blatant lies and cheap propaganda, and the medium of choice for the organization is the Social Me...
