The tiers of government in Nigeria has belittled her citizens to promises with nothing or less to show for the hightened level of impoverish conditions meted out to us. Pls mr. Governor, proof your words by fulfilling this promises.

Horse before cart comes to mind. The proper thing would have been alternative jobs created to encourage okada drivers to leave possibly their only means of survival. Nobody is an idiot who wouldn't listen if the right approach is employed. The motorcycle ban thing should have been done phase wise and nationally and at the same time. An agreed scheme could have been put in place to show what benefits yet-to-be-absorbed participant stand to benefit after willingly relinquishing their bikes. Sadly, no thought plan - just business as usual.

Re: Oshiomhole Promises To Employ Ex-Okada Riders In Benin. by unuane1(m): 1:06pm On Jun 14, 2013
These are empty promises i hope the okada riders will not rely their faith on those promises cause those were the kind of promises he gave when he took over power the first time that he was going to create 10,000 Jobs for the youths bt believe me jobs that were created was not up to 3,000 pls correct me if am wrong. And the process used to recruit was on the basis of who you know. Pls my fellow Edolite just look for an alternative and legal way to survive and pls don't wait for the government. It is well.

This is arrant nonsense and crass incompetence! How can U a governor tell d people who voted for u that u cannot disclose fully d reasons leading to d ban? Are they zombies? U take away a means of someones livelyhood and u say can't tell him why! This is tyranical and if left unchecked......I insist that oshiomole tells us d reason for d ban cos its obvious its not just abt security, defacing d town and high accident prone! If it was PDP govt that did this, Lair Lie Mohammed would ve started convulsing!! Mtcheeew.

You made the only sensible comment so far.
The ban may be justified but given that some of the streets in Benin are not motorable, I dare say it's gonna be a long walk to some destinations.

Present them with an option before making them jobless.
That is just the right thing to do. Not making promises that might never see the light of day.
