ODSG BANS ALL COMMERCIAL MOTORCYCLISTS ACTIVITIES BEYOND 10 P.M

Ondo State Government has banned all activities of commercial motorcyclists (Okada Operators) in the state beyond 10 p.m daily.

In a statement, the Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Mr. Yemi Olowolabi, said this was done to curb criminal activities, especially during this festive period, and to ensure maintenance of law and order.

Mr. Olowolabi however noted that any motorcyclist that will be on the street in any part of the State beyond 10 p.m must not carry any load and must show evidence of ownership of such motorcycle.

He stressed that the ban does not affect private motorcycle owners who may be going to work or attending to emergency.

" It has got to the notice of the state government that some people are perpetrating criminal activities under the guise of operating Okada till late hours of the night and this has to stop, as the issue of security of lives and property remains priority of the government".

The Information Commissioner enjoined all members of the public, particularly commercial motorcyclists to cooperate with the government in flushing out criminal elements from all parts of the state.

Great development.

10pm is late.
Once it is sunset, okada shouldn't be seen moving around.
It is easier to perpetrate crime with motorcycles.

Good one!

Long overdue

Next in line should be Atiku and Obituary

Isoright

Very dangerous means of transportation especially if na aboki dey drive am

Farming is an exciting endeavour .
patience and precision important
what to farm is also important ..
crop, livestock, animals and even president's as the case may be..
but in all we are farming .
we have plant species to choose from right now ,
be it buhari papaya, or atiku indices, or even sowore sativa
we have but a choice to make , one seed goes in
4 years is not so far off ,
either we pull you out with all your root
or we chop a few careless branches
either way ..
the Electorate is most powerful .

YOU with that PVC are most powerful ....

but my people dont know

Nice.. Some of them are willing to work overnight at the detriment of their safety. That's how they end up carrying ghosts and thieves.

ok.

nice decision

unban okada by creating a working economy. Okada was never present as a job when our Nation was once great.

Rubbish





Apart from goat which other animal can fly?

Most places in the South East, South South, their States' Capitals and major towns already banned Okada for years, even some northern states. Only in the South West you find Okada everywhere. You cannot even find Keke, not to talk of Okada in a place like Owerri.

who will feed the Okada rider's family?

In my own opinion, i think the Govt should introduce other forms of transportation(e.g keke napep) which will take effect after 10pm, if not the whole thing will look like imposition of curfew. Also, there should be nothing like exemption of any kind if the propose of giving this directive is to be achieved cause criminals can still pretend or disguised to be law abiding citizens.
