Baby mama: So I get off a Chisco bus to attend interviews in Lagos while crashing at my uncle's place, or become an apprentice seamstress for my madam I am now a resident?
If I claim to work in Lagos,how do the card issuers verify that claim,what if I claim self employed,how do they prove it.
Have you seen that your definition of residency makes no sense and opens itself to the mercies of the card issuers?
Every legal business is registered so if you claim you work with UBA for instance, it can be verified

Also Lagos has done a property identification exercise meaning every house address can be verified

I don't work for Lagos State but I believe these are systematically orchestrated plans to effective manage the state

CuntDestroyer: so if i visist lagos and have a car crash and i get rushed to casualty , i wont be treated by lagos state hospital cos i dont have a card?

get real. you guys know what this is really about.

it's all about votes. The SE got GEJ into office and they dont like what ACN is doing in Lagos. They will mobilize and vote ACN and put Tinibu in Jail.

This is down to ethnicity.

The Bokos are targeting non-muslims and southerners in the north because the latter voted massively against Buhari.

The killings started in Kaduna after the election result were annouced and at one time the Bokos asked non-muslims and southerners to vacate the north.

Lagos state has deported Nigerians from their own country. Fact.

The Okada ban is to further drive the hausas who are a majority in that line of business out of Lagos.

I am no f00l to this gimmick and also to the fact that all of you supporting this trash are all tribal monkeys
You will be treated. If you travel abroad and you don't have a health insurance, won't you be treated if you had an accident? But then you will bear the cost .. .as usual

Since you are the Lagos representative please educate me
Who is a resident?
What qualifies one to be a Lagos resident?

A resident of a state is a person who lives and works (or hopes to work) in that state. Hope that helps

shymexx: The most interesting thing about this is that, people won't be able to evade taxes...

That's another avenue to generate funds for the Lagos state government and I see the IGR of Lagos jumping from 33billion to about 100billion in the next couple of years...

This policy should be applauded by everyone who wants the best for Lagos!
It's just one out of many things I've listed

Baby mama: The problem arises,who is a Lagosian?
Can a Lagos resident who moves to Abuja or London continue to carry his ID card and can a JJC who just arrived Lagos get an ID card?
Of what purpose is this ID if I may ask and how do they verify that the individual is what he claims to be?
Is there a means electronically to verify an authentic I D from an oluwole
this is just a money making venture someone thought out and I see it being a tool for harassment and extortion and nothing more
It's for residents. Is that so hard to understand?

If you will be living in Lagos, you need to get registered so the state can make adequate provision for you. Is that not what it is?

If you are visiting, you won't need it. Will Chevron issue you a staff ID just because you wanna come in for a meeting?

geeez: Great move

So we know how many Igbos live with us, where they are and how to deal with them decisively grin


But seriously there's nothing wrong with a state trying to identify its residents and create a database that will help in better administering the state. It will serve the following purposes:

1. Effective Tax Monitoring
2. Effective provision of infrastructure
3. Provision of adequate security. (Since you know which areas have the most population)
4. A database for the unemployed with a view to establishing a social security structure
5. Provision of effective health care
6. Prioritization of transportation routes, links and means
7. Education for school aged children

Ati be be lo
Even in my own neighborhood in Lagos, residents of the estate have residents' card. So what should I do? Sell my property and move away?

PointB: It added that “under no circumstance can anybody, not even the president, deport any Nigerian from any state in the country. The right of a Nigerian to live and not be discriminated against is guaranteed under the constitution of our great country. No law can thus be made to frustrate or erode such guarantee. The Governor ought to know this and remain civil.”

Fashola take note of this. Those who break Lagos traffic law should be charged with law breaking. Threatening to deport them is a no-brainier. Wonder whats become of Fashola these days. The guy is normally on point, might have something to do with Tinubu looting Lagos state while he aids and abets. Na wa o.
Did BRF say he will deport anyone? I need you to show me a link with a quote or video where he said that.

How come people reason like this in the 21st century or is BRF just years ahead of this phase of Nigeria's politics?

Well said BRF

We need to build a city with fast moving trains and buses.

I know Nigerians that walk several miles in New York and London with shopping bags in their hands.

The risk is enormous and they are increasingly getting lawless and come to think of it, over 90% of crimes are perpetrated using bikes and they constitute more than 70% of victims of road accidents.

I also don't think everyone should drive to work everyday. That's what buses are there for. Call them BRT or danfo

The Lagos State Government is working on a number of options to engage genuine commercial motorcycle operators, recently thrown out of jobs as a result of the implementation of the new traffic law, in meaningful ventures.

The Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Kayode Opeifa, dropped the hint in Lagos on Wednesday, stressing that the move was meant to give only the registered operators a new lease of life.

Many of the okada riders, as the commercial motorcycle operators are called, have had to abandon the business, as the new law prohibits them from plying major roads and bridges in the state. According to the new traffic law, only those with 200cc engine capacity can operate in the permitted areas.

Some aggrieved operators have been protesting against the new policy and a few people sympathetic to their cause have urged the state government to rescind its decision in view of the multitude that will be affected.

But Opeifa, who spoke at the 11th Business Forum of the Lagos State University’s MBA Heritage held on Lagos Island on Wednesday, said that there was no going back on the decision.

He said, “We are resolute about the Road Traffic Law; there is no going back on it. But we are going to re-certify the okada operators resident in Lagos.

“We are going to start a registration process, and in the process, if we discover those who have skills, we will send them to the skill acquisition centres established by the state government to hone these skills.”

Opeifa, who spoke on the theme, ‘Effect of Transportation on Nigeria’s Economy,’ stressed that okada could not be regarded as a means of transportation, as nobody wished to bequeath it as an inheritance to their children.

The commissioner, therefore, said the state government would re-register the operators with a view to providing the genuine ones adversely affected by the policy other job opportunities.

“Some of them could be absorbed into the LAGBUS as conductors and drivers. We also have agriculture, where some of them can also be useful. Apart from our farms in Lagos, we have bought landed property in Ogun State and Abuja, and we are going to buy more in Benue for agriculture. So, the options are there for them,” he said.

According to him, the state government plans to assist some of the okada riders with the acquisition of skills to make them employable or to become self-employed.

Opeifa also said some of them would be assisted to own bakeries after undertaking the needed training.

But the Managing Director, Megavons West Africa Limited, Dr. Rotimi Oladele, expressed the view that the okada business could be reorganised, and urged the state government to re-brand it as a community transport system.

Although Oladele, who was a keynote speaker at the forum, commended the state government for its efforts in transforming Lagos, he said there was still a need for a truly masses-oriented means of transport, which the okada business represented.

“Let us re-brand them as community transport system, license them and restrict them to their domiciliary local government areas,” he said.

Opeifa said there was a need for the development of multi-modal transportation system for the economy to grow.

“The groundnut pyramids were moved from the North down to Lagos by the railway; likewise, cocoa and some other farm produce. The system worked then, and all that seems to have died now,” he said.

Opeifa advised that the review of the Constitution currently going on should whittle down some powers of the government at the centre, so that states and local governments could develop the modes of transportation that suited them.
