It will interest the government of Lagos state that its officials at various local government area have turn their various offices to joint where various type of unethical behaviour are practice. Alcohols, women and cigarette are freely displayed and consume with impunity.
Some of the government agencies earn more wages/revenue (in their personal pocket) daily than the state government.
The average man on the street is ready to fully co-operate with the government if a friendly approach and mechanism is put in place in the area of revenue, fines and taxes.
For example, how do you expect a common man to operate/accept a system that is corrupt, inefficient and frustrating? My point is, how do you expect someone to pay for a fine of N5000.00 while he spends more than extra N7000.00 to achieve this! At the end of the day, the government only gets a fraction of about 20% of the above amount mentioned. This might sound ridiculous but this is what we experience daily.
It is so painful to know how cheaply government agencies now turn public offices into a personal cash point. They live far more in excess of what they earn.
If you want more detail, ask a victim (the common man)!
