Governor Sanwo Olu Tears Down Fela's Statue To Ease The Flow Of Traffic....
The Government of Lagos State has pulled down the statue of Afrobeat legend, Fela, from Allen roundabout, Ikeja, two years after former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode commissioned it.
The monument was pulled down because it was located at one of the four roundabouts the administration identified as a major cause of gridlock in the state. The other roundabouts are at Ikotun, Lekki-Epe expressway and Maryland.

Why tear it down when you can relocate it elsewhere? Waste of public funds
ReplyDeleteAs in ..they must have paid millions to commission it ...do these politicians know what tax payers money mean at all?
DeleteHe’s very stupid. Bad roads are there causing traffic and he’s done nothing about it.
DeleteOkay o, Lagosians are watching him.
ReplyDeletePull down syndrome is worrying Pontius pilate
ReplyDelete🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 @Pontius Pilate
Delete😂 this your comment bu godi ezigbo comic relief.
DeleteWell I don't live in Lagos, though I personally dislike destruction of art, maybe Lagosians can tell us if it is a good development or not.
And how does a statue affect traffic?
ReplyDeleteWas the statue used to construct the round about? Nonsense
They are trying to curb the traffic on that road by removing the round about and expanding the road more. I work at alausa and the traffic there is the only reason I don't drive to my office. I just take bike because you can spend hours just from alausa to allen( journey of 3 minutes)
DeleteSanwo will be the "Death " of APC in Lagos. Wasting Public Funds up and down.
ReplyDeleteHmnnn, destroying Fela's statue, I hope he is not coming for second tenure
ReplyDeleteWhat stupid traffic is that all this man is doing is nonsense
ReplyDeleteYou are the stupid one. If u ply that route you will not talk rubbish... Mumu
DeleteI don’t support tearing down of the statue but if you don’t move around in Lagos you will not understand how this traffic can affect practically everything in this city. I am very happy they have scattered that 2nd Lekki roundabout that Fashola used almost three plots of land to construct. The circumference alone eh.
ReplyDeleteAnything that can curb the traffic in Lagos I am all for it even if it means tearing down Government house join sef.
YEYE PEOPLE...DONT WASTE OUR MONEY BUILD ANOTHER ONE
ReplyDeleteMost of you on this blog are so myopic and don't read. U just come and vomit rubbish. That road is being redesigned from a roundabout to a t junction. How will that statue be there when construction is going on. It's like a total makeover.and who said another one cannot be put there or even the same one. It's only the base we see here in this picture. When u people comment have a meeting with your brains first and think. Next thing u all will vomit now is he hates fela
ReplyDeleteStella, that roundabout must go. Massive traffic around that area.
ReplyDeleteThe Proposed Junction Improvement Layout - ALLEN JUNCTION.
- Roundabout will be removed.
- Dualization of Aromire road
- Synchronization of Allen, Agidingbi, Kudirat Abiola traffic lights.
In line with the THEMES Agenda of the Governor
Most of the people making comments about this, whilst refering to "our money" probably do not even pay any form of tax. You have to be a tax payer before you can refer to the state or any Government money as our money. some people have never paid any form of tax in their entire life, yet they want electricity, good roads, water, good schools, good public health service, yet they won't pay their tax, but expect a kind of miraculous provision. some also would say "what about the tax that is paid" yes by other people which is not enough, that is why yours is needed. Even in the western world, their tax is collection is not adequate enough.
ReplyDeleteIs VAT not tax? We all pay that one, so we are TAXPAYERS!!!
DeleteVAT is paid to the Federal Government not State Government.
DeleteVAT is paid to the Federal Government not the State Government.
DeleteJust shut your dumb trap ... foolish gullible people .... you don’t even know what it means for a country to have a government , you don’t know the basis of a good country , you are shouting about people not paying tax in a country where all the tax money is uselessly spent and embezzled for personal reasons , not only tax money , even governtmnt funds , any loose funds they can get thier ha ds on , and it’s not even a recent happening , it’s been happening since the first day this corrupt country got independence, and still happening till now ! , so tell me what you’re paying for ? If you not just another dumb stupid follower that thinks he or she is better because he or she is more easily fooled than the other .... na ur Type go vote for obviously bad leader .... obvious one ooo ‘ dem go still vote
