The most interesting thing about this loan of a thing is that 90% of the spending is on the north. In real sense, it's a loan to develop the north. But as it always ends up, they will still remain under developed.

wetin normal person wan use 4 phones do before if e no b fraudster

If the Network was normal, a normal person won't border for more than 1 Sim even.
Like yesterday, there was no network bar on my mtn and my colleague was trying to reach me. If not that I had Airtel I used to chat him, I would have lost a very important info at work. Sometimes Airtel will disappear and u see only mtn. In such a case, one is forced to have one sim from each of the existing networks in Nigeria. Wen 1 fails, u have another to fall back to. Though many people get many Sims for fraud and kidnapping purposes, but looking at the network situation in Nigeria, even an innocent man do have many Sims.
They should focus on firing the network providers to seat tight.

Politics / Re: The Socioeconomic Impact Of The Lagos Okada Ban, One Week After - Nairametrics by awetaiye2015: 12:55pm On Feb 08, 2020
HyzExcellencee:
Lagos Okada ban, its Socioeconomic Consequences

by Chinedu Nnawetanma

On February 1, 2020, the ban by the Lagos State Government restricting all forms of motorcycles (excluding those used for delivery services) and tricycles from operating in key commercial and residential areas of the state officially took effect. Though well-intentioned, the timing and blanket nature of this ban have left much to be desired.

Among the reasons given by the Lagos State Government for imposing this ban was the rising spate of insecurity in the state. The government has argued that criminality in the state was facilitated by the use of motorcycles, popularly known as Okada, as a getaway means by hoodlums.

Also blamed was the crippling traffic gridlock that most parts of the state have been forced to grapple with in recent times during the morning and evening rush hours. The state government also argues that commercial motorcyclists and tricyclists have contributed in no small way to the state’s traffic malaise due to their wanton disregard for traffic regulations.

If these were the issues, one wonders how the ban would provide a sustainable solution. For instance, these motorbikes often provide easy transportation for commuters in Lagos State, especially during those gridlocks, ensuring that they arrive at their destinations on time and save the economy man-hours that would have been lost in traffic. They also keep hundreds of thousands of low-skilled Lagosians away from criminality by providing them with a legitimate source of income.

If the Lagos State Government really wants to arrest the traffic situation in the state, it should look towards employing more sustainable avenues with less radical socioeconomic consequences. These include the completion of the Lagos monorail project, expansion of road networks, ban on street trading, relocation of roadside markets and motor parks and construction of parks for articulated vehicles.

The real cause of the traffic nightmare currently being experienced in the Lagos metropolis is the population explosion. The state’s existing road networks can no longer cope with the daily influx of vehicles as more and more people continue to relocate to the state from other parts of the country.

Similarly, if it wants to tackle insecurity, it must beef up its security apparatus and change its modus operandi from reactive policing to proactive policing through intelligence gathering. It should also create more employment opportunities that will keep Lagosians gainfully employed by incentivizing the private sector. All these and more should have been put in place before the ban to cushion the socio-economic impact.

Government policy is a major enabler of economic growth around the world, especially in developing countries like Nigeria. The government’s primary role in the economy is to create an atmosphere that enables the private enterprise to thrive through the formulation of business-friendly policies. More importantly, its ability to maintain a consistent and cohesive set of policies over long periods of time by formulating long-term policies rather than short-term, stopgap ones is key to buoying investor confidence.

Investors are attracted to stability, consistency, and predictability and they flee from instability, inconsistency, and unpredictability. Time and again, governments in Nigeria have demonstrated just how easy it is for one administration to overturn the existing policies of its predecessors overnight. The inconsistency of policies scares investors and accounts for the low inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI) and foreign portfolio investment (FPI) into the country.

Investors who backed motorcycle-based ride-hailing startups in the state like ORide (OPay), MAX and Gokada – who are also affected by the ban – would now be counting their losses.

What it means: Other startups operating in the state and the country at large, irrespective of the industries they play in, would now face an uphill task convincing investors to fund them. A trend that may emerge in the Nigerian venture capital space is a preference for small-ticket short-term investments and profit-taking over long-term investments.

I love this step the government has taken. I wish they will do same in warri, Delta state. 98% of the robberies in Delta is by Keke. I have been robbed twice by Keke. Most riders in Delta now rob with Keke and that's how they balance for the day.
Imagine entering a Keke, u see a well dressed gentle man acting as a passenger in the Keke with u, u feel all is well, the next tin, he brings out his gun and ask for all ur belongings. Some of the Keke riders will codedly put u to talk, like arguing about the price of the fair, while the suppose passenger with u will sneek through ur pocket and collect ur fones and wallet. This happened to me.
Another occasion, one gentled man came down from Keke very close to me as I was walking to the church that Sunday morning, he rushed and hugged me and called one stupid name that it is my name, he was acting drama that he knew me somewhere, he called one area I don't even know, not knowing he has stolen my fone wen he hugged me. Wen I told him that I don't know him, he apologized and entered the same Keke he came down from, that was how they drove off with speed. Wen I notice the speed they took off, I checked my pocket and my fone was gone.

Keke is worst than okada now in Delta. Since Keke is covered to an extent, they rob u neatly inside the Keke without people outside knowing and ask u to come down at a not-too-busy place. Ladies do join them now since they notice that passenger don't like to enter any new Keke that there is just one male passenger at the back. So they carry ladies with them, most times their babe and partner in crime, and wen any lady or guy sees that there is a lady in the Keke, he or she feels safe, not knowing they are one.
I can go on and on to reveal their tactics but it will become an epistle.

So my conclusion is that they should ban these Keke everywhere for security reasons. After a horrible robbery, there are certain roads cars can not escape through but Keke and bike can.

Stop thinking like this. Theres is reason we have kaws. If you condone something like this, all that may be required for you to end up dead like those boys is mere allegation

Thats why it is the job of the court to pronounce who is guilty. If we let the Police become Judge, jury and executioner, it will only require someone to mention your name or lay allegations against you for you to end up tortured and dead like those boys.

Which stupid law? Laws made for the poor alone? Forget law.

Who obeys the law? Does the number one citizen obey the law?
Cath ans kill is the way to go.. the rate if crime is too much. Let the useless ones be wasted, so the good ones can live.
