-You have a point. Farming is far more noble than risking your life on motorcycles.

Personally, I couldn't be paid to live anywhere in Lagos. I wonder what the average age of Lagos residents is, I mean the environmental issues there is enough to cut 20 years out of someone's life. Even the Lagos airport is ridiculous.
Many people are not smart, everyone wants to come to Lagos and live on the streets...how can you leave the North and come all the way to Lagos(southwest) to live on the streets and bachas, I think these people have a sinister plan, it does not make sense. Maybe they are trying to populate Lagos with their kids and people, we must not allow it. Lagos is for Lagosians and people who earn a living, miscreants coming into Lagos daily is congesting this city.

You forget that a power bike is more expensive to own and maintain than some cars.
A small 250cc power bike costs between
850k-1m. Minimum kits costs 70-100k used.
So just budget N1m for the smallest power bike. That can buy you a small Nigerian used car.

Trekking is good for the body as a form of exercise.If you cant trek buy your private Okada(Power bike).Private Okadas(Power bike) and dispatch riders are not banned,only commercial okadas are banned.

I like people like you... overpopulation makes it worse, this is why the government must deport all illegal immigrants, take back urchins and beggars to their states.

Na only Nigeria people dey go visit person without invitation. There are so many people moving around in Nigeria that should’ve been at home.

Some who are supposed to be in the villages, enjoying peace are busy roaming the cities constituting nuisance. City is not for everyone, go your village and have peace if city life too hard.

The one reason I know this twist would work is because police officers like extortion and bribes. They wouldn't lose an opportunity to put erring passengers behind bars for this.

Good one by LASG.

Lagos is not for poor people.

Most Nigerians have land in their villages. Is an individual with land to his name actually poor?

I hope Oyo state government is taking note because the marauders will simply move down here and bring their wanton disregard for decency and order.
Very correct. Oyo and Ogun states will be the next option and would soon be flooded by those aboki okada men from Lagos. I hope those governments will wake up and do the needful.

This will really stop the influx of people that come to Lagos just to do Okada.
Let them stay in their villages and farm.

Just like New York is not for poor people
Just like Capetown is not for poor people
I used to consider okada riders because it is an easy means of transportation.
But with the way it is going, it is affecting the outlook of the state.
Let them be restricted to the streets not main roads.

I agree with this view 100%. Lagos fits my definition of hell on earth, and I would never set foot in that horrible place but for my occasional need to take an international flight into or from the airport. Whenever I find myself with no choice but to visit Lagos, I lose sleep for a week beforehand, as I contemplate all the ugly and deadly things that can befall anyone in that place without warning.

I would rather go to jail for a year than spend one day in Lagos. To those of you who call Lagos home, kindly accept my deepest condolences on the predicament in which you find yourselves.

Who the hell wants to live in Lagos if not for the lopsided federal structure of Nigeria where everything is centred in 2 cities.

Go and check all the laws made by the present governor who I understand was handpicked and appointed a governor,they are all anti people laws. By the way I don't support okada because they have been banned elsewhere in the east and Abuja , I support banning them in Lagos .

Shut that ur dirty mouth up.....u don't know what u r saying
