This weekend my sister and i,alongside my brother decided to honour my cousin's invitation to his wedding at the outskirts of Ikorodu,Ogijo to be precise.To say the journey was hectic will be an understatement,i really must praise the people who work on the island or even Ikeja and commute back to their various homes everyday to and from Ikorodu,i really empathize with them if the gridlock we encountered is actually what they go through on a daily basis.The traffic was just too much on Saturday.
We all agreed immediately on our way and on seeing the traffic on the other side of the median that we will just eat and say hello to the couple and drive straight back to the mainland!Thank God for following one's instincts,if not my darling baby would also have bneen caught up in the traffic,luckily i left her at home in comfort.I don't want to imagine how cranky the little one will be in a traffic of over six hours,even with the air conditioner on full blast,it still did not help the situation.
This will not be the first time i would be held up in traffic at this same Ikorodu,to attend a function my experience the first time was not even funny at all,that will be for another post.I just think the government has to do something fast about the ongoing construction on that road,the expansion project seems to have been going on for a long time.They should do something fast so as to ease traffic and make life comfortable for people living in that axis,do not let me even talk about the nuisance danfo drivers constitute in that area,the bulk of the blame is on them,they are so disorderly and do not obey simple traffic rules.I hope Nigeria will get it right soon.
Wishing you all a nice week ahead.
