Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) don show say dem no dey here to play as dem drop serious warning give all event centres for Lagos. According to di tori, LASTMA say many event venues dey use their parties scatter road like puff-puff for birthday. Pipu go park anyhow, road go block, and innocent motorists go dey suffer for traffic wey no get end.
Dem talk say di nonsense don too much, especially for weekend when Lagosians dey try attend party A, B and C. Instead make road dey free, everywhere go turn slow motion because some pipu no wan follow parking rule. LASTMA no find am funny at all, dem say this year na zero tolerance.
One officer even talk say, “We no go dey blow whistle for fun again – anybody wey do anyhow, go collect anyhow.” Na dis kain grammar wey dey make Lagosians know say gobe don near.
The Wahala Weh Dey Happen for Lagos Roads
If you don ever pass near big event centre for Lagos when party dey happen, you go understand why LASTMA dey vex. Cars go park for both sides of the road like say na car exhibition, danfo buses no go fit pass, and keke riders go dey squeeze themselves for tiny space. Before you know, road don jam from here reach three bus stops away.
Many Lagos residents don dey complain say sometimes dem go spend one hour for hold-up wey normal days no go even reach five minutes. To make matter worse, some security guards for these event centres go even dey chase LASTMA officers like say na football match.
Na dis kain experience make LASTMA decide say enough is enough. According to dem, e better to prevent the traffic than to dey blow siren up and down like say na Governor convoy.
LASTMA Advice and Warning Wey No Be for Play
LASTMA don yarn say all event centre owners must create enough parking space inside their compound or rent space nearby for their guests. Dem also warn say any event centre wey allow pipu block road go face serious penalty – including fine wey fit buy two bags of rice and still remain change.
Dem advise Lagosians say if you wan attend event, shine your eyes and respect traffic law. No be every party wey you must attend if e go cost you fight with LASTMA or towing van wahala. As one officer talk, “Party go end, but traffic wahala fit spoil your whole day.”
For now, many event centre managers don dey whisper say dem go adjust and find solution, but Lagosians still dey wait to see whether dis na real change or just another Lagos promise. As LASTMA talk, “We go watch una closely – no play with our yellow uniform energy.”
