So Sowore is an activist? You guys are joking.

The Niggar is pained Buhari didn't give him Political appointment after his media campaign against GEJ. Sowore is a bloody opportunist.

His seized Passport is the only reason he's still in Nigeria.

May sense fall on all his nut lickers.

There seems to be sanity bec Tuesday and Thursday is like Sunday in Lagos now, they should have just left it to 200cc bikes so we can still have the bike hailing services, Even executives and celebs take use those services when they're stuck in traffic, I do Oshodi to Lekki/Ajah with those services even when there's traffic, now I spend at least 2hrs on the road, there re days I spend 5hrs When e no be say I dey go Ilorin

I waste valuable man hours in traffic everyday too. It's not funny at especially now that several roads and bridges are closed for repairs. Most of the roads should be reopened by January (hopefully). It's not easy I must say.

You have a very valid point all the same.

What is the total population of the Nigerian youth vs the total Population of Okada riders??

"Easy way out" Jobs as you tagged it isn't the reason we re short of skilled personnel, matter of fact, it has nothing to do with it

So now that the ban has happened where re the functioning Skill acquisition and Vocational centers? where re the opportunities for native skilled personnel in Nigeria?

we all like to cut the head off whenever we have slight headache in this country

The markets will soon resume every day opening and we'll see...

and I feel pained somehow that after seeing everything happening around you, you still seem to be blaming the citizenry for lack of skills required to push the country forward, perhaps you're part of the 1%, perhaps you have no idea what it's like in the real world.

I am not part of the privileged few neither am I blaming the citizenry. I used Gokada alot last year.

To be honest, the skills massive acquisition programmes should have come before the ban. But security wise, the ban was timely. I can't count the number of robberies and crimes that were perpetrated by people with bike as the escape route.

The ban returned sanity to my area. It's painful but it's the best looking at it from my experiences.

Well it is your opinion.
but I have a question for you, is it only in Nigeria that okada and marwa is been use?

Do you know how much revenue okada is generating to the Nurtw?

Can every body be a skilled technician or craftsman?

How is riding okada as a graduate or as an illiterate is been termed as the easy way out??

I just replied another user with my view on this question. My opinion has its merits too

SmartyPants:
Kindly explain

If you go to Dangote refinery and several offshore oil platforms, you will discover that most of the expatriates on board aren't university graduates. However, their monthly pay could be far higher be the annual salaries of the Nigerians there. With highly skilled workers, we don't need these Chinese, Indians, Lebanese et al.

We need to get the youths back to skilled crafts- welding, plumbing, HVAC etc. A country like Nigeria still need a strong manufacturing base to enhance our development. We are not yet ripe for a services based economy.

Why ride Okada when you can acquire productive skills and earn better? The country also conserves it's FX this way. NCDMB is really trying in this regards but government needs to do more.

Minjim:
Do you think this corrupt govt can create anything but hardship

I agree with you

Was totally against the banned earlier. Looking back now, I think it's a good decision. There is more sanity now.

Government should work towards creating and funding Vocational centres in every local government. This country need skilled technicians and craftsmen.

Riding Okada was just the easy way out. It brings food to the table but does not really add to the overall economy. It's negative development in my own opinion.

When? No timeline?

It was a chaotic debate! I'm disappointed.

Femi, Femi, Femi

I'm sure it will take them 50 years to construct if approved.

From design, approval to execution, everything in Nigeria is slow.

This BILLIONAIRE paid JUST $750 a yr in taxes? Meanwhile, a VERY LOWLY paid janitor pays an average tax that quadruple this amount. ...no wonder he has been dodging his tax revelation for yrs UNLIKE other past Presidents. Sadly ,most African Negroes have their face STUCK IN HIS RECTUM ....same dude that PUBLICITY Denigrates them??( Inferiority complex). Sadly ,most of these African Hero worshippers are THOUSANDS OF MILES away from the polling booths unlike most of us that our votes will count in November......Cursed Continent!

You are inconsequential

Who cares?

wink2015:
So both Lagos state government and Ogun state government are spoiling for Laycon booty.

Okay O!

But a tax expert should come and explain which of the state that is authorised to demand for the tax money.

Laycon is from Ogun state which suggest that he could be a resident of the state.

Bbnaija was held in Lagos state.

So which of the state should Laycon pay the money to.

Lagos. He is a resident of Lagos.

70% of Nigerian youths don't have legit work.

When was the poll conducted?

This classless woman again

Betrayal mode activated..lol

But seriously, this is all shades of wrong. How can you take a life you cannot create? These are some children's fathers for God sake.

It's really a cold world

He should better beg obaseki to make him SSA on religious matters

Exactly

I really pray Tinubu himself contest. The disgrace go loud ehn

Some lunatics are behind the posts. Disinformation is a new weapon world over now.

Social distancing dey for the votes oo.


Congrats Laycon!

It's been played out already.. lol

All these motivational speakers don come ooo.

We no go hear word again all through this week.

Wow

This is just favour

Some guys are gonna cash out big time tonight

Suicide mission!

Pa Tyson, Please respect yourself.

Your background, location, lifestyle and number of dependants plays a major role.

A single guy can be okay with 300k monthly while that amount might not be sufficient as feeding allowance for the children of a married man.

You can live like a king in some remote areas on a monthly salary of N850k, but same salary might not cover your monthly expenses in some average neighbourhoods in Lagos not to talk of high brow areas.

So, no size fits all. Income that will sustain you comfortably is relative. Just work hard, be contented and make yourself happy always.

No right thinking human will blame you. You were just impartial. It's the only right thing you've done this year.

We all know it's just to humiliate Oshio and Tinubu. Kudos for your non interference nevertheless.
