A man has taken to social media to ask Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State why touts have taken over the Third Mainland Bridge.
The man who didn’t reveal his name but goes by the handle JamesofGod @jamysax decried how thugs in their numbers file out to demand money from motorists whose vehicles develop problems on the bridge.
In a post shared on X, he stated that the thugs go as far as threatening to push anyone who fails to heed their demands into the ocean.
He also asked if there were no security personnel on the bridge to monitor the activities around there, asking if the governor knew how many lives had been lost in the hands of the touts.
The man also noted that the development which has been going on for years should not be happening in a sane state, even as he urged Sanwo-Olu to do something.
He wrote;
‘’Dear @jidesanwoolu People’s cars can’t develop faults on 3MB without thugs in their numbers 4,5, 6 gathering them and asking for a huge sum of money, and they are ready to push them into the ocean if they do not comply.
“How is this even happening for Christ sake???
“Are there no security personnel on 3MB to monitor the activities around there? Do you know how many lives have been lost due to this? This should not be happening in a sane state. Please do something. This has been happening for years, and yet it keeps happening.”
