These keke people were a total and complete Nuisance. They constituted a whole lot of mess in Lagos.

Does Okada ride in Tokyo, Japan, Beijing, Berlin or New York?

Even, is Okada in Onitsha? Why would Okada be allowed in Ikeja the seat of government?

For those saying crime rate will increase, thats unless Lagos state government is clueless and stuppid. Sanwo Olu is smart though as far as I know and a very hardworking governor. You can deny this if you want... But the heavy volume of work going on Lagos roads speaks for itself.

Obiano the drunkard banned Okada in Anambra. Did heavens fall? Rochas even went to the extent of banning keke in the entire state. Did crime rate increase? Was okada not banned in Nnewi even with the rate of billionaire Okada importers from that axis? Did anybody die?

What most of you don't know is that Nigeriens, Chadians, Sudanese, Malians and Somalians took over South West without anybody knowing! It was gradual, crude and definite.... But they were almost succeeding before I believe Sanwo Olu stepped in. At a time, I was asking myself if there is no regulatory body managing these people in Lagos anymore.

They virtually took over Lagos with there stuppid, crazy and mannerless style of driving. They felt like Lords of the city and if you try to caution them, they will bow there heads in foolishness to thank you. But in there hearts, they were calling you Mumu after scratching your car.

What is Keke doing in Victoria Island? Who even brought this useless contraption to Nigeria? India that manufactures these nonsense made moves to regulate them.

Google Indian roads and see how organized keke driving is. But in Lagos, its madness! They will keep on creating multiple lanes that cause traffic, scratching peoples car with no mercy, hitting pedestrians with reckless abandon while using there Okada and useless keke to rob at night!

I ask again, is Lagos no longer a city? Why is there no Okada in Tokyo, Japan, Beijing, Berlin, Stuttgart, Dubai, Osaka, Chicago or New York?

Sanwo Olu if you are reading this, its not much about making these laws. Its about enacting and enforcing these laws! Enforce the ban and see sanity return to Lagos!

In Tokyo, Japan, Beijing, Berlin, New York and every other developed nation, they have multiple transportation systems, that way, no sane citizen would opt for a bike knowing it's dangers

(Modified: previously wrote would not opt for, typing error)

Nigeria has no good transport system, the citizens are the ones catering to their transport challenges

When brt was introduced, it reduced some burden, brt is not enough, check the number of people at brt stations day in day out

Well Monday would tell the difference on us


In fact Nigeria has no infrastructure whatsoever, the citizens provide for all their need whne the government should be doing so


Below are some public transport systems in those countries you mentioned, I've only seen them on internet or movies or tv because I've not traveled out of Nigeria before, not even Ghana

Must I travel to outside before I can use such...


BTW, it's not a one man project, they're government projects, that way my car can chill at home except when I really feel like driving

Realtalk20:
Actually you are very right

I met a graduate Muslim lady whose family is elite from the north and she told me boldly she supports BOKOHARAM and isis and if she had her way she would fund them that Christianity is a problem in Nigeria. Mind you her dad is a professor. she works for a blue Chip company in Ikoyi but every Friday flies to the north to spend her weekend. And flies back to Lagos on Monday to resume work.

That is how the typical northern elite thinks

Wetin Christians do her... Its Muslim that actually kill at will, if it's about tithe and fake pastors robbing their Church members, that's a problem the church goers caused for themselves, but saying Christianity is the problem of Nigeria is just an all time low and barbaric thinking


If she's that pained by us, she doesn't have to sponsor and sit in an office and pretend that she likes us by living amongst us, she should relocate to her Muslim state and kill all Christians that invade her region


I've lived amongst Muslim in the core north, I can say I lived in fear knowing that anything I do or say can cost my life, but living amongst Christians, you can't be afraid of loosing ur life, pastor go only job u if u fall for his gimmick

to a core northern Muslim, you being a Christian is enough crime for him to raise a dagger to stab you


Maybe I exagerated the last statement but it's somewhat true I tell you

HacheNoire:
Was it the government that killed him?

Crime is being curbed in every great nation like Nigeria. Why should you just heap the blame on the government . The kidnappers are citizens like me and you and you think it's fair to just point a finger at the government for an evil perpetrated by people it governs.

Oh! Your hate for the president will never make you dissect issues thoroughly.

Who is supposed to provide security for you if not the government...


They say we are lazy youth, we no argue; now you want to blame us as well for not being able to secure ourselves by ourselves from people that carry guns in broad daylight without permit and mental capacity to hold firearms


if everybody was charged with securing themselves by themselves, the whole nation would be a jungle and therefore we would have no need for a government if that's the case, that's why the government is being blamed for insecurities


In no nation world over are the people charged with their own security because the government is supposed to have strategies on how to secure lives and properties, that goes without saying you as a person must also keep watch

MRcocaFanta:
Truth be told, Buhari is trying but there are few bad eggs in his government.

Few?

Please check the meaning of few in the dictionary and tell us if it's only "few" bad eggs we have

Who gave the "few" power, so a whole president can not curb his few?

Realtalk20:
We all saw this coming didn't we?

Some of us collected paltry sums of money to put the maniacs in power and still went on to bully those who did not see it their way

Karemarealty288:
Have you people forgotten in a hurry THe NEXT LEVEL PRomises....

Put 2 + 2 together and you'll see Trump is trying to be a cheat code, to make the game easier

Let more countries place us on travel ban, that way our government wld sit up or we go get sense pursue the non performing power and vote wisely when voting is required

Na wa for America self...make Dem go joor

You should appreciate what they did, it's them trying to use indirect power to make ur country good for you...

They put a ban because of our inadequacies in security, accountability (like data collection) therefore if the govt wants the ban lifted, they'll check these inadequacies and that means bringing an end to the several terror groups in obodo naija and solve other problems as well

codedguy1:
They are a bunch of selfish parochially minded he goats.

The only solution is simply to industrialise and allow people get better jobs that will reduce people doing jobs like okada and keke riding.

There are just a few things involved firstly we need to sorting out electricity and road issues first.

Gbam!!!


The impact of stabilizing our electricity alone can not be overemphasized to say the least

Speedybiscuit:
The BRT bus dropped me at stadium na em I come start to dey trekk tell myself say I go see keke o, na I go see keke I dey talk till I reach Spar for Adeniran Ogunsanya mall. I first carry water from their fridge drink. I was so exhausted! Funny thing be say small traffic come dey sef even with the whole ban.
Why would you ban something without an alternative? All those people saying "yen,yen, yen, Nigerians are lazy and don't like trekking" will know what's up on Monday. There's a difference between exercising and mad's people walk. Na mad people waka I do today.

"Alternative" is the word bro...

No alternative was given... Shoot first then ask questions later governance style... By then innocent person is dead already


Ur today trekking is probably the least of ur worries ohh....

Monday go madt gan...

Then after a while the Keke and bike riders wld run out of cash for survival... Then they'll seek other means of survival wch we all know is not quickly feasible in 9ja

Then they resort to other things like crime

E go tough...

We are in for a big one

Speedybiscuit:
I trekked from Stadium to Adeniran Ogunsanya mall and back. I been wan crase.

Oga how did you manage to engage in such trekking in the first place... U try ohh

emonis88:
Don't be surprised that, that commotion in front of ur shop also makes business boom for u. When u dey empty street who go enter shop?

He doesn't know...

Even businesses would feel the heat...

Someone said they should learn skill like painting, farming, cobbler,

Whose house would you paint, is it the man that has no money to put 3 square meals on his table


Industrialization should be the major concern of the Nigerian government and governors alike

When there are industries,people are employed, wealth is created and therefore is distributed


The guy riding a bike, if he got a bank job, would he be driving okada at all


Nigerian govt always putting the cart before the horse

We have been praying for so long and not working/acting, it's time to start acting

McCoy662:
Word!! Let them ban us let's all rot here. At least they won't be moving our cash to the US for now.

Need I remind you US is just one of the places they move our money to

Dubai...
UK..
Germany...
Switzerland...

The list is endless bro, and from wat I've heard(not 100% sure) Switzerland does not care about the source of ur cash, money enters there and disappears, Dubai too seems so

phr0nesis:
I think that post is a sarcastic mockery rather than praise

Point blank sarcasm...


If u read some reviews in appstore by those whites ehn, you go nearly laff fall comot inside driving car

TheKingIsHere:
You have a point, and that's what makes DC unique. They did a successful CBM with Joker without the usual hero vs villain.

True though

nuban07:
If not for our backwardness, why will they be removing a man hole cover, something that can lead to a major accident or we now need security to be watching over man hole cover again

We need CCTV and snipers

CCTV to catch ole
Sniper to shoot at sight

Nigerians would learn

Abaribe for president

See poll here: Nairalanders Decide...

https://www.nairaland.com/5660287/nairalanders-decide-should-president-buhari

Don't be surprised if abaribe is gunned down like a petty oshodi thief soon ohh...

What he said in that video would cause trouble if it's a sane country because the guy talk am as e dey Nigerians mind


But this is Nigerian, we only have power online


Its a step in the right direction though, now more and more people are waking up to the reality that we shouldn't continue this way


Some of them with their overbloated payload they call salaries wld start feeling guilty small small for all the hardship they've forced upon us

One who will rule them with strong hands,make them suffer,drain then in poverty and so on until they all come back to thier sense.....

BUHARI TILL 2090......

I reject this your curse even for my enemies ohh

You're so busy yet have the time to reply to my inconsequential post. Say the truth, you're jobless.
Send me your CV bro I'll see what I can do. I'm not promising nothing though.

On a lighter note...

One thread on nairaland: the biggest scam you've done or been done

Some said its this line: send me your CV, I'll see what I can do

Does that make u a scammer

Nah joke i dey ohh, abeg no press P ohh, I no Sabi yab at all, u go win me

3 idiots is the only Indian movie I have watched in 13 years. Very good movie

Its the only Indian movie I've watched since after 8/9 years of age and that quite a while... Definitely more than 13years

RagaMufeen:
It should be 95%, I've gone to vote for him to resign immediately.

Me sef want to go and vote... At least that's one of the places where my vote can be transparent


No holding a gun to my head to vote who I don't want...
It can't be rigged...

That's the main reason Nigerian politicians would never adopt online voting because too many miscreants won't be at the helms of affair plus they won't be able to rig it

Bringback9ja1:
One thing I learnt from Buhari is

YOU CAN'T GIVE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE

Words on marble


You really can't give what you don't have...

GamalNasser:
Forever failed !!!!! The worst leader ever ..He lacks the capacity , vision and will to offer NIGERIANS any thing good

It's good we used our own eyes to see what a bad leader he is cos people wey experience am b4 tell us but we failed to hear

If he didn't win, he would have been said to be the best leader that never lead Nigeria


I vote 10000 for him to be removed


But who we want put as president,too many buhari(s) in the system, in fact every potential politician in Nigeria is a potential buhari
