I wonder how some people reason. So because vehicle accidents, robberies or infant mortality kill more people, we should encourage deaths on okadas because its not the biggest killer of Lagosians? How sad that life has no value in these climes

Mr Intelligent,so u c nothing wrong in okadas plying major highways and getting people killed or injured?Hav u lost any loved one in a motorbike accident?I pray u dnt.

Mr. Unintelligent, what makes Okada accidents so special and different from automobile, aircraft, and pedestrian accidents? Or is it more painful to you when someone dies from an Okada accident than when one dies from a car accident or plane crash? If so, may your wishes come true - may your loved ones not die from Okada accidents maybe only by other 'prestigious' means.

The point remains that nobody has made any sensible argument about why it is justifiable to single out only Okadas for blame in terms of accidents and other risks associated with technological means of transportation. This reeks of hypocrisy.

Dana airline took more than hundred lives in a day, all those crazy truck driver carrying flammable liquid as well. Pls they shud focus on those areas. Lagos is vry populated, they shouldn't compare her with other states.

I wonder how some people reason. So because a plane crash killed more people, we should encourage deaths on okadas because it wasn't the biggest killer in Lagos in 2012? What about those that died before now and those that possibly still would in bike accidents? Maybe even someone close to you. I saw the picture of a good looking and promising young man on my friend's blackberry avatar some weeks ago with a display message RIP and when I asked what killed him, my friend said he died in a bike accident on a highway. If the restriction was a month earlier, he probably would have been alive now

Do you reason in black and white? You need more colour 'upstairs'. If vehicle accidents kill more people - as you have rightly acknowledged - why is it more of a priority to discourage "deaths on Okadas", while also encouraging deaths "on" vehicles? Having said that, since Okadas kill people and should therefore be discouraged, why should vehicles be encouraged - even though they also kill many more people than Okadas? Where is the sense in this logic?

I saw the picture of the extremely beautiful Cynthia Akusogwu a few months ago, she was ensnared and killed through Facebook and Blackberry messenger. If Facebook and Blackberries had been restricted/banned, she probably would be alive now.

I also have a former school mate who died in a fatal accident when the bus he was travelling in collided head-on with a trailer. He would definitely be alive now if buses and trailers had been restricted or banned.

I seriously don't engage in dull arguments because what you posted doesn't make sense to me in any way. A government wil strive to reduce mortality in any way it can. Don't people die in road accidents in the US and Europe? In the US alone, 93 people die each day in road accidents on the average. And you believe in your right senses that a taxicycle should be racing on a 100kph highway alongside cars?

As regards the Facebook, thingy, I will choose to ignore that because its one of the silliest things I've read. Those guys don't need Facebook or any social media platform to have done what they did.

No wonder you reason the way you do and see Okada business as fast money.

See what fate has done to some people. Some Okada riders can actually construct and speak better English than you.

Mr. Man, it takes sense to recognise sense, so I don't expect much from someone like you. "A government would strive to reduce mortality in any way it can" - by ignoring the biggest sources of mortality (vehicle accidents, poor roads, etc) and inflicting pain on the poor masses?

If you have run out of shallow, untenable arguments, get off the fucking thread and go and sleep.

Ur the one that lacks basic reasoning!! So it's because u lost a frnd in a bike accident u nw think dats a good reason why it should be banned? I have lost frnds who have died in car crash and plane crash, do u think that's a good reason to ban plane and cars in lagos? Face the facts,n statistically specking car accident is more prominent.

You sure didnt read my post. Over 93 people die in the US in road accidents on the average each day. Once again I put it to you and I need an answer. In your right senses, do you that a taxicycle should be racing on a 100kph highway alongside cars?

Unfortunately, some people went to school just to learn English only. No intellectual which makes them not to reason beyond these craps.
Have u read the Traffic laws? I guess no. Since other vehicles also involve in accidents, they should equally be banned? There is why we have Traffic laws to reduce accidents on other Vehicles suchas cars, bus, trucks and trucks. Think before u type trash

If they go into robberies, you will be the first to be robbed. Their attempt on mw will fail and they will be caught. They will call you as their lawyer and all what you will say to defend them will be "because they were stop from riding okada in expressway that is the reason why they rob.

U think the best way to win an argument is to insult people, it shows how shallow minded u are. Read my comment again! Did I ever say I encourage the ban of cars as well, I was only being hypothetical. U sure don't understand english. Consider urself ignored.
