The Minister of Transportation,
Mr Rotimi Amaechi, has decried the multiple checkpoints along the Badagry-Seme
road.
Amaechi made this known in an
interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos on Wednesday.
According to him, before getting
to the Nigerian border, one will meet 17 checkpoints including many security
agencies.
“I asked at the regional meeting
that why is it that we saw four checkpoints on the way to Togo and Lome.
“The security officer at Lome
apologised, saying they usually had two checkpoints but due to Nigerian
elections, they increased the checkpoints to four.
“In Nigeria, election or no
election, we saw 17 checkpoints. The government security officers said that
they did not know where the people came from but it would be handled,” Amaechi
said.
He urged Nigerians to be patient,
saying that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration had started fixing the
Badagry road with the support of two contractors.
