Kidnapping: Abia Gov Threatens To Ban Okada Biola Azeez, Umuahia - 13.06.2009 Following the involvement of some commercial motorcyclists, also known as okada riders, in kidnapping and other violent crimes in Abia State, Governor Theodore Orji has threatened to ban their operation in all parts of the state anytime any of them is involved again. Speaking at a meeting with commercial motorcyclists at the old Presidential Lodge, Umuahia, Governor Orji said security reports indicated that most kidnappers and armed robbers used okada riders as their get-aways, warning that their days were numbered. The governor said many of the neighbouring states had banned okada operations in urban areas, adding that he refused to do the same because he knew it was their means of livelihood. He said his administration would soon come out with a strategy to combat crime in the state, adding that it would involve punishment not only for the criminals, but also anyone who aided crime. http://www.tribune.com.ng/13062009/news/news14.html |

Okada riders, let us even blame them for the state of the economy. This policy advice must have come straight from his native doctor. |
