I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS!  when taxi drivers striked in ibadan, my mum says shes coming to pick me, i wanted to join the big girls taking okada so i said no, taxi was N10 at the time so i thought okada was the same, when i got to home junction i paid N10 he says 15, i had no money and he got impatient and ordered me to jump back on the okada and dropped me back at school o_O i had to walk back home from bashorun to dada estate, i couldn't talk for three hours i was dehydrated and hungry, my mum said i looked like a boy |

I have had terrible experiences with Okada men because I often times take bike to work once I am late. My worst experience however was: One funny morning, I left home at about 7:25a.m and because I knew I was too late since the person relieving my boss who was on leave at that time had complained severally of our late coming in my unit, I decided to ride any bike not minding who was steering it. We were fast approaching Suru when the bike man wanted to match his brake and it failed. However, we were fortunate because while we served on the road before we stopped, the coaster bus coming behind us sensed it and braked exactly in front of us otherwise, he would have cleared us off. The guy came down, used a piece of cloth to adjust his brake and told me it was okay. All because I never wanted to get late to work, I hopped in and we continued the ride. It was when I got to work that I realised how stupid I was to have risked my life that much all because I never wanted to get to work late. So many experiences naim I don get with okada. I remember one wey be say, the stupid mallo dey use me practice wey make motor jam us. I no fit count because I wan read other people experiences. |

if u love ur life and u must take a bike never 1. ride with an aboki man that is younger than 30 years 2. ride without your helmet 3. be fast otherwise , i will rather ride with an elderly man becos they value their live unlike the young aboki that want to ride as fast as tommorrow and make all the money into their grave |

I entered this okada one time like that, I was seriously pressed (i needed to shitt  )My house no far, but if i trekk na shit for road be that. I paid before i boarded the okada, in order to save time when i disembarked Omo for road i come mess (fart). I thought the smell will dissipate since air dey blow, but i was DEAD WRONG! The smell just the follow us they go, needless to say it was terrible. I held my breath hoping the guy no go smell am, but i didnt have a prayer before i know okada man don dey shout "O boy wetin, wetin, wetin!!", come dey swerve left and right   Omo the guy stop o, climb down start to halla, dey mix yoruba and english. Other okada men (obviously his friends) come around, the guy just they yarn opata like say i kill person. Omo see embarassment I just jump down, since my house no far. . .take off before i shit for road I see the idiottt one other day, the guy dey wave me. . .FOOOOL! |

At least none of the contributors died. We thank God for that. But i lost a close friend because of okada. I was in naija in '05 and i missed him because of my schedule so when he came to London in '06 we planned to get together but he had to rush to naija for his traditional wedding. I got a call the following week that he was involved in an okada accident. HE DIED. It was surreal. Right now i'm scared of okada and i think i have what can be medically classified as "okadaphobia" |

Haha! On Ozumba Mbadiwe, VI. The high speed lanes, wow! God did something amazing. We fell flat and all vehicles held their peace. I stood up, dusted off and mounted the Bajaj(lol) again unscathed. It was miraculous and comical. Okada, can Lagos run effectively without them? |

NL never disappoints, i don laff die . My story Back in 2007, while still in school in enugu, i had an 8am exam; i had woken up late because i had to burn the midnight candle. To avoid been too late i hopped on a bike en route school, just as we were going up a slope close to the school, i realized i was mid air. I had no idea what had happened, until a woman by the roadside told us that another guy also by the roadside had pushed us off the bike, his reason?? we were too close to him. I had to scurry off the road, even though i was in pains, because i had landed awkwardly on the tar, if not, i would have been ran over by cars which usually have to increase their speed because of the slope. The idiot?? i allowed him walk, make him dey carry him winch go. i dusted myself and continued to school, |
