Content creator Ella, who has been vocal about Lagos BRT challenges, has once again drawn attention to the persistent bus shortage at the Elepe BRT terminal. She revealed that she arrived at the terminal by 6 a.m. only to find just one bus available, despite efforts by authorities to improve service.
“Good morning Nigerians. I got here by 6 am, and there’s no bus. I actually thought this change was permanent. There’s only one bus here,” she said in a video, expressing frustration over the ongoing transport difficulties.
The complaint comes after her previous protests went viral, prompting the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) to deploy additional buses to the Ikorodu corridor on Friday. However, the short-term solution has not resolved the underlying issues, and commuters continue to face long waits.
Ella’s latest video highlights the ongoing struggle of Lagos residents for reliable public transport and underscores the need for sustainable improvements in the BRT system to meet growing commuter demand.
Her advocacy has sparked widespread discussion online, with many users sharing similar experiences and calling for permanent solutions to Lagos’ transport challenges.
