DANFO is made in Japan/EU/Yankee why not standard it?

What is Tinubu has to do with this news? you spoilt all what you said with that statement.

When Okada was banned in Magodo GRA 2, people complained, but today, they are all enjoying the peace in Magodo, without Okada problem. It will only create a temporary discomfort, but the advantages at the end will be great.

People in government are not fools, they also think and come out with the best programmes for the masses, so everyone is always considered.

What Tinubu got to do it is that if he was not to benefit from the government policies he wouldn't have bothered himself carrying broom all about & shouting himself before & during election (even at a time it was obvious he wasn't too well). Level of involvement in Politics here in Nigeria is inspired by what you stand to get back.

Honestly, i strongly feel this is a good and timely move.
I am sure the government will come up with an alternative.

Taking danfos off the street will open up the doors to greater investment opportunities in the transportation industry.
Providing more BRT's which is a safer and cheaper alternative should ease the stress this would cause Lagosians.
The Trains should be refurbished an more route should be created.

danfos r not d only alternative.
the fishseller and other marktwomen going to d same locality can arrange for pick up delivery cars....it is already done in some places like yaba where u see five to six ppl renting a pick up van to transport their wares to theie abode.


Mr Lekkie, i'm sure u dont understand wat he meant, how do u want a humble traders to survive wt dia little capital, by d time cab charges them even more than their capital.
Wat again do u do to reemburse those guyz dt are used to daily earning, if nothing, then robbery rate will increase with nigerian state of security.
The humble(masses) are in trouble if proper care is nt taking.
Nigerian govt imitate other govt law without luking into d alternatives they put inplace for them to achieve it. Later they say Nigerian are stubborn.
See weakedness in high place.
Notwithstanding, God bless my country, Nigeria. Amen

Na wa o! People supporting this are those having private cars or that their major daily activities fall within BRT operating routes. We Nigerians are always self entered, because you are not directly affected by a policy doesn't mean you should commend it, they should also ban cars since they also use cars to rob, cars do hit people infact in Lagos cars are more involve in Deadly accidents than danfo (am not saying more accidents), cars also involve in a lot of traffic law disobedience . For heaven sake a lot of people benefit from these people, imagine all the chains of people that benefits from these businesses (investors, the commuters, the operators, their families). If these are replaced with govt operated system like BRT all these resources will either go to the govt who will still pay the workers peanut and yet the dividends of the profits will not get to the people, or as usual Tinubu will privatise it and give to one of his relative to get all the profit alone.


Eradication is not always the best solution, corrective measures and improvement should be made.

Ur sense of reasonning is a great one. Thumb up to u + God bless ur thnking, God bless Nig.

I hope this ban is also for the Military and Police personnel who still ride Okada on all roads because they are uniformed men. The law should be for everyone and not limited to some persons in the society. What is good for the geese is also good for the gander. We are not in ANIMAL FARM when all animals are equal but some are more equal than others.
