After the Lagos State Government and Lekki Concession Company Limited (LCC) said the resumption of tolling at the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge Toll Plaza will commence today April 1, Lagos residents took to the microblogging platform, Twitter, to register their protest against the decision using #NoJusticeNoTolling.
The users of the social media platform do not appear convinced about the Lagos state Government’s arguments for the re-opening of the toll facilities.
Twitter users also used the opportunity to demand justice for those reportedly killed and injured at Lekki Toll Gate during the #EndSars protest.

Below are some of the tweets monitored on Twitter:
Nigeria Needs Freedom (@nisimimike) “My argument against reopening the Lekki toll gate is that while it’ll bring money to the gov., it will bring monumental loss to businesses. Tolling will lead to increase in traffic congestions. Traffic congestions leads to timeloss and ultimately money loss #NoJusticeNoToll.”
KUZU-KUZU (@koldfaze) “@jidesanwoolu until you come out and tell the whole world the truth about the night of tuesday 20:10:2020 we will continue to insist on #NoJusticeNoTolling.”
@promiseroyal_ “Security officials are harassing the channels TV crew reporting live from the Lagos toll gate. This is insane! Do your job and let journalists do theirs! #NoJusticeNoToll”
Adenekan Mayowa (@Mayorspeaks) “Lekki toll gate resumption is inhuman, disrespectful and will not be tolerated, the young Nigerians lives that were lost at the toll gate massacre 17 months ago at the Lekki Toll gate won’t be forgotten and their deaths won’t be forgiven. #NoJusticeNoToll”
