Okada riders somehow in one way makes several Lagos people's live easier sad

Banning them generally isn't going to work
Just one way of benefit

But they in many ways make life miserable for citizens

Sue them. Lagos belongs to everybody.

Just because Northerners are dealing with the Bourdilon thief in Abuja he thinks he can vent his anger and punish Northerners via banning okada that Northerners make off a living with in Lagos.
An Hausa man has equal rights as a yoruba man. Tinubu vi's Sanwo Olu has touched the tail of a tiger, we Northerners shall teach them a lesson in this lagos they somuch covet.

Tinubu, get ready for this fight.
Try nonsense they will waste all of you...you go think say na North you dey....ewúrẹ oshi

So lagos state govt shuld be thinking on providing alternatives for those useless northerners who do nothing aside causing havoc, mayhem and giving birth to unlimited number of children.

Nothern Nigeria is a curse to the development and civilization of this country.
Giving birth to many children is a Nigerian thing and not limited to the Northern People of Nigeria.

If I should ask, how many of them in your vicinity/state have you sensitized on the dangers of having numerous children or is it because you were privileged to have education, don't even tell me that they will attempt to lynch you in a Christian dominated area.

For the part of havoc and mayhem, only a kid without knowledge of Nigeria's history will say it's limited to the Northern People of Nigeria.

such entitlement mentality. But they did not sue the Kano state government that enacted a similar ban. The Northerners do not have the good of the Southern half of the country at heart. They have decimated the North with poverty, illiteracy, diseases, and terorrism and now, their leaders are shipping them all over Nigeria to destroy the rest of the country as they have the North.

@Sebastine1994 thank you for the analysis. Bertrand Russell, that great mathematician and philosopher, during his acceptance speech at the Nobel Prize ceremony said, I'll paraphrase him: within a herd, there are those who have risen above the ORDINARY LEVEL. They are prophets, discoverers etc. Society must tolerate their eccentricity. And there are those who have fallen below the ORDINARY LEVEL. They're idiots and criminals. A wise herd must learn to tolerate them with minimal ferocity.

Those who hitherto rode these okadas for business, who now oppose it as well as those who willfully support them on NL, have fallen below the ORDINARY LEVEL. Forget their education or whatever they claim to have achieved. Their thinking is along faulted lines. And they are part of the problems.

Ali Mazrui, Kenyan scholar said 3 things assail Africa. They are technological underdevelopment, organizational incompetence and military impotence. He might have added pervasive stupidity, because it's so pervasive across our socio-cultural life.

Africa is the most centripetal country in the world. Yet, its achievement is very modest. The generality of Africans are stuck in their past and are set in their ways.

Nigerians are so selfish and hypocritical. Everyone is opening mouth shouting Okada did this and that. Nobody would tell us how okada helped them in heavy Lagos traffic and neglected Lagos road. So Okada has never been of any help to us. Gokada was so helpful and organised but they selfishly banned it without much alternatives. Compare the number of those being killed in car or bus crashes and Okada. Which is should be banned. If the our leaders use Okada, they wouldn’t ban it even if would killed every person in Lagos steer. You banned them , have you fixed the roads? Have you provided alternatives ? Have you considered how the responsible ones would feed their families. If it doesn’t affect you , you will be here shouting, “ ban them totally “ , as if here is New York. License them, give them numbers and make them provide guarantors because of security. OKADA ARE MORE USEFUL TO US THAN THE GOVERNMENT IN THIS LAGOS! Deal with it

Point of correction, Aboki. No part of Yorubaland belongs to everybody. None. Same way no part of the North belongs to anybody. The Southern people residing in the North know their bounds and limits. The South is not a dumping ground for all kinds of idiots from the North with sinister motives. Trying to politicize this issue will not work. Your mercenaries have surrounded us, pretending to be Okada riders and we all know. We shall make sure that your plans are frustrated. If Okadas can be banned in some states in the North, what makes it wrong to ban them in the South or in Lagos in particular? If Lagos no pay you, go back to were you came from. You cannot be constituting a nuisance and expect authorities to fold their arms. The ban had been in place before Atiku clinched the PDP ticket so don't make this a political thing.

How many enlightenment campaigns about the dangers of having many children have you done.

I am sure you know that the educated one don't do that.

If they were privileged enough to afford education then this wouldn't be a topic.

Our Ancient Fathers did same until they sent us to school and we became lenient.

Na only dem de wait for the signal to cause mayhem in the South because they are actually sleeper cells of terrorists and Islamic mercenaries waiting to carry out the Northern Islamic and land grabbing agenda.

FOJEM:
Okadas have been banned in Kano, Kaduna and Abuja for years. Why were the states and FCT not dragged to court?
Why would you comply in those areas but choose to disregard the directives of the Lagos State Government?

You are absolutely correct. The impunity of the Northerners in the South must be checked and totally stopped. They are so bitter about this because they were planning to use them to overrun Lagos and eventually the entire SW. All the governors of the SW must follow suit and prevent these bastards from having their way.

Look at vanguard newspaper, those that will say they have dangote 1x cement for sale at rediculous prices. Those that advertise customs seized cars etc or cheap cars eg 2012 benz 300 4matic at 500k, 03 corolla for 250k etc.
They always bear "pastor".
This pastor sueing is one of them.
Pastor weh de ride okada. undecided

That is why when you are dealing with a Nigerian and he introduces and emphasizes his pastor position as much as he can, it is better for you to treat him with a 10 meter pole while you treat a fellow who introduces himself as Mr. with a 2 meter pole.
