Keep quiet uncle, out of 100 Hausa and Fulani rate 45 to 50 percent so what do u mean by u were talking about majority of them. Our people don't make troubles those Fulanis and Hausa are the one turning into terrorists all in the name of okada business. They were the one who killed and burned that young engineer that was even the main reason for the ban. And am happy they banned it. If they want to form terrorists they should go back to their poor godforsaken state and do that, Lagos no be their mate.
So, hausas and fulanis are now the hooligans and agberos, you said 45-50% and you still claimed they are all Hausas,more than 80% are yorubas. See I don't have time for argument.

You are the one that need to wise up. The damage and security threat posed by these riders outweigh the benefits. Its not a must everybody stay im Lagos. If you know whatsup u will be aware that close to 60% of these riders are not even nigerians. They just bump in from nowhere. Moreso if you've been following trends, govt has put many alternatives on place
My point is that it should be done in a proper way!... there are still law abiding citizens managing there lives with biking for a daily bread, some with family... a country where things works just don't displace people off a job without offering a solution, it will make the matter worst in due time, give it a few months and see crime rate increase in lagos, BTW aliens riding bike is still the pointing to the failed country!, what's the job of the immigration and customs, this country is useless and needs total overhaul!!!

How many Fulani or Hausa rides okada in Lagos. The government don't want to have problems with indigenes that's why they said they are interested in foreigners, we all know fulanis and hausas don't do agbero or okada business.
It's obvious, u don't know Lagos, 90% of okada riders are northerners, come to Lagos and see

Good ridane

By the way by next week they are going to flood Abuja and it's environ.
Abuja is not safe, the insecurity will increase when the okada men in Lagos come over to Abuja to continue their business since it has been banned in Lagos.

If you are in Kubwa (especially pipeline), Mpape, Nyanya, Ado, New Nyanya, Masaka, Mararaba, Jigwoyi, Karimo etc please blaze up. We have not finish dealing with the menace of the okadas and iron condemn people and now their brothers are coming over from Lagos to join them.
Abuja too will soon clamp down on them,that I'm sure of.

You are one of the problems in this shithole of a country, put yourself in the Okada riders shoes and its not only northerners that ride bike for a living, you are just living in denial if you think so... let's just imagine you're 7 years old and your Father is an Okada rider, I keep wondering everyday why we behave the way we behave in this country no consideration or concerns over others predicament so long it doesn't affect us... How can we grow as a nation with such mentality?

Of course it's one Nigeria, the question is, why didn't u guys tell Abuja, kaduna, kano, Anambra, Rivers government etc to provide job for okada riders when they banned them?
But if na Lagos, all of una go turn to activist over night

Where is this coming from.. we are talking about okada and its riders .. are the agberos riding okada?

This is how to attract tourists and foreigners to come into your city. Nobody likes a rowdy, noisy city, filled with smoke, where a mad bike man can come hit you from behind. Sanity is good.
Re: Lagos Steps Up Action On Alternatives As Okada Ban Takes Off by ellizy(m): 10:07am On Jun 02, 2022
There's no law in the land. As at yesterday, there are still countless numbers of motorcycles OKADA at the ikotun axis of Lagos state. The riders feeling so relaxed like there's no embargo on them. What a shame to the constituted law of the state....

Bikes wasn't banned all over this places you mentioned, bikes still operate but not in the urban areas
Re: Lagos Steps Up Action On Alternatives As Okada Ban Takes Off by Bankowner: 11:29am On Jun 02, 2022
How motorable are most inner roads in Lagos? Think objectively as well. You get a bus from government for inner city commute and you're driving the bus on untarred, pothole infested, flooded roads. How long will that bus survive before you start visiting a mechanic workshop? Introducing more vehicles will only worsen the already deplorable condition of the roads.

baretalk:

They mean inner roads and hinterlands... hold up is mainly on main roads, not inner streets. Speak objectively.

You are just ranting, you don't live everywhere, where I live inner roads are motorable...they can introduce Marwa Keke and ride slowly to destinations. Okada kills via accidents, and criminals have infiltrated their ranks. No sane city use okada, we need better solutions. It's not by force to live in Lagos...the city wants people to leave, it's over crowded.

Those are union members, 95% of Okada riders are not Lagosians, 80% are Northerners, Libyans, Malians,chadians, fulanis. Know who you are fighting for.

If anything, I make sure my doors are properly locked now. I advise you pay more attention to your security now. These guys surviving with their bikes, you think they won't start considering armed robbery. We should be careful with what we wish for.
People are constituting a nuisance and going against the law you're suggesting that they should go into armed robbery Abi? Enough is enough.. if they decide to do that, then what happened during lockdown will repeat itself, pikin wey talk say im mama no go sleep im sef no go sleep

You're an okada rider Abi? That's why you're talking jazz. The lawlessness and recklessness of these riders on our roads is alarming. Not to forget the security risks that they pose. Good riddance and great decision by Lagos state government

Too little, too late. This result of playing politics with people's lives. Rather ban them outright lying a long time ago, because Tinubu ambition and need to please the north, Lagos govt refused to do the right thing. Now that the entire state and other parts of SW has been taken over by fulani bandits, that are just waking up.
Re: Lagos Steps Up Action On Alternatives As Okada Ban Takes Off by cinche(m): 4:05pm On Jun 02, 2022
The ban must be sustained ,the rate at which they populate here is crazy and those guys are very daring .......maybe Lgoas state govt should take seriously the issue of identifying Nigerian citizens in Lagos ...

Now we are heading the same direction. Immigration is useless. No one is checking the influx of these abokis. The right way to do it is flush everyone out. The begin reabsorption with proper documentation.
Re: Lagos Steps Up Action On Alternatives As Okada Ban Takes Off by Bankowner: 7:34pm On Jun 02, 2022
You should hear yourself talk! Where you live, inner roads are motorable. How many Lagosians live where you live? You have road infrastructure deficit yet you introduce more vehicles into the already saturated road network, does that make any economic sense? I live in a country where there are dedicated bus lanes, where roads are decongested except there's a major accident. Nigerian leaders come here and see these things but cannot replicate them in Nigeria.

Pictures are that of transit busses and dedicated lanes and stop.

You are just one person your opinion is inconsequential against millions of Lagosians.
Okada riders injure and kill thousands monthly via accidents
Okada riders are robbing and killing people
Okoda releases bad fumes into the air, bad for fight against global warming.
No major cities in the world use Okada
Okada makes a city noisy and rowdy, bad for tourism and foreign visitors
Bokoharam can infiltrate Lagos easily via okadas.

If you like trek or fly, some decisions are made based on necessity. Critical times call for critical decisions.

Go back to your village, no one welcome anyone to Lagos, it's overpopulated...we only need rich people here, investors etc.
Re: Lagos Steps Up Action On Alternatives As Okada Ban Takes Off by Bankowner: 8:07pm On Jun 02, 2022
Sorry to burst your bubble but I don't need to go back to my village. I don't live in your Lagos where your part of inner roads are fantastic while others are a mess, I don't even live in your country.
