in warri the ban has affected the okada men, my fish farm business, market women dnt come to the pond as mush as they use to, because it is the okada they usually use to carry their fish to the market, the keke cant carry their fish, and cars dnt like coming to the ponds, because the road it nt good. I harvested my fish last week, i couldnt even sell up to half of my produce. Its so discouraging, and i just started, after spending more than 200k to feed |

Well it's affected cabs and buses ...for the better and maybe cobblers too as people walk longer distances and fix their shoes more often. People will drink more water which means better business for bottled water producers Robberies on bikes have reduced All the same, Lagos is a lot better and driving is more peaceful without them On the downside, obviously the Okada guys and their mechanics have been affected Also Okada sales will drop meaning Okada merchants will be looking for other businesses Doctors will have less accident victims to attend to (not quite sure where this falls) |

My brother imported a trailer load of helmet just before the ban. He's yet to finish payment to the foreign company that supplied it. Even if he wants to change business how will he get the money n how does he dispose of his goods? The Indian company has started disturbing him for the payment. What do you think he shld do? 1 Like |

Ts an anti masses / pro elitists policy. I agree to a ban on express way but not on link roads like berger to ogba, agidingbi, toyin street to opebi etc. It was war to get a bus frm ikeja to berger yesternit, too many people few buses. Trekking s good but not ideal for far distances. Fashola jorr o! We all want Mega city buy takam small small America did nt get ther in 1day o! |

it has affected my iphone business. I wanted to go from saka tinubu to Ligali Ayorinde (both on d Island) to deliver an iphone to a customer. On a normal (okada working) day, to n fro is btw 200-250 naira. Now no bike, no bus. My options are my car or a taxi. if i use my car, i will lose my 200 naira parking space and still use like 1K fuel due to Island Hold up. taxi collected 600 naira to d place n 700 naira back to Saka. not good at all. |

Even if he wants to change business how will he get the money n how does he dispose of his goods? The Indian company has started disturbing him for the payment. What do you think he shld do? He should look for other states where okadas are still functioning and sell them. Okadas are still working in some states. 1 Like |

Can he try selling to other African countries? Or as someone said, other states. Although I can see that cash flow as an issue. |

Online merchant selling, buying and delivery has been greatly affected. e.g, if you buy stuffs online, these goods are delivered via trusted regular okada men due to the chaotic Lagos traffic and transport problems. |

obowunmi:Okada ban is not the issue as enforcing the law of helmet wearing, which is not seen in most states as it was in Lagos. |

Its so discouraging, and i just started, after spending more than 200k to feed Is your pond at Igoroke?.... my suggestion: If the market women really want to buy and the distance from your pond to the major road is not too far, support them by carrying the fish with wheel barrow or similar hand-pulled truck to the point where a cab will then help carry the fish to the market.....I hope this make some sense. |
