The Police acted quickly. We know firsthand how badly things could get when it comes to bikemen and Ojo. Plus I think the presence of Ojo barracks, not so far from where the seizures were made helped do a quick format of the violent natures. On the flip side, this is likely to distract the police from their original duties as it is a very lucrative venture. Also, the only ones that would be affected are those with no connection in the forces themselves. On my way back home yesterday, when the driver parked to pick/drop passengers, there was this minibus driving one way in the now-expanded dual carriage highway. There was no reason to do this obviously as there was no traffic on either lane but it didn't bother the driver from breaking the law. Anyways, police pounced on them but immediately they saw the army personnel sitting on the passenger side, they smiled and let the driver go. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Moferere:Bros this is not about is thought being a reflection of kickback and bribery. This is what I have experience gon gon in Lagos 2020 during the covid 19 lockdown period Oboyyyyy, nor be small money those police begin collect from okada man wey them catch him okada o. To the extent that when they saw they were making a lot of money from the captured okadas, they now took it as business and forgot the security issues they were supposed to be handling, and they seriously focus on catching okada everyday, and even went ahead to place a price tag on each of the bikes. Depends on how the bike take new or old, na in go determined how much the okada man go pay for the bike. They were collecting up to 25 to 40k for the new bikes, then 10 to 20k for the olds ones. So, that's is not a reflection of who that guy is, but it's a reflection of what the Nigeria police can do. 23 Likes 2 Shares |

Motorcycles in Lagos state are like parasites, they are endangering lives and the cyclists are behaving as if they are from another planet, if other successive regime after Fashila had followed his footsteps,by now, motorcycles would have been forgotten in Lagos State . 2 Likes |

But the law enforcement officers are bigger than the law. They seize bikes and start using it. Half of the police in lagos state are into okada business and bus driving as their side hustle. The painful part now is, the okada riding fraction of the police will start charging some ridiculous prices cos of shortage of okada. Just imagine from falomo to sanfil eavesdropped a mopol charging #800 last... 2 Likes 1 Share

Police are worse. Haven't seen a non-cleptlomanic , conscience driven, selfless and responsible police officer. If you speak with those Okada riders during trip, you will see how responsible and intelligent they are including the Abokis. You don't expect a sane society when the judiciary,the enforcements are worse than a common criminal. 1 Like |

I still believe the Babatunde Raji Fashola's Approach to this menace is still the best. *Seize the bikes; *Crush them; *Send the alien cyclists in droves back to their states of origin. That way, they'll realize they can't do 'anyhow' in Lagos State. Because believe it or not, most of them are terrorists in disguise as motorcyclists. Most, if not all of them are armed with guns and/or daggers. Their tactics of being in every nook and cranny of Lagos State is alarming. Their nefarious activities always going unchecked since Babatunde Raji Fashola left office. I remember seeing them loading trucks with their bikes and migrating to wherever they came from while Babatunde Raji Fashola was governor. Please, bring back that method. 3 Likes |
