grin grin >: grin We can clearly now say, it is the turn of the north to have a taste of "show of power" in Lagos after my brothers and sisters from the east have tasted it. Very soon all tribes will go their separate ways

You cant just pick beggars off the road without proper alternative things to do for them. Will you now send them back to the north or you will forced them to neighboring state to continue their venture. Misplaced priority! So much attention on things that are of no real danger to the people residing there.

Are there provisions in place already to keep them off the streets and highways permanently,if not they’ll just be gone for a while and then come back more than they were before.

This was before the great invasion by the wandering man eaters from the East. Lagos never recovered since then

Long overdue. Take them to there family and support them.
For those who are homeless person with some health problems should be well taken care of by the government.
My opinion

When they clamped down on Okada riders it’s like it affect everybody. Everyone and every tribe were complaining with different mouths.
I expect people irrespective of tribe would complain about this one too. But no one likes a burden

Instead of displacing these individuals, a more sustainable solution would be to proactively engage and rehabilitate them.

A more effective approach would be to first gather and profile them to understand their specific situations. Following this, the government could organize a seminar or skills acquisition program, identifying those with a willingness to work.

The goal would be to channel them into a government-owned enterprise or cooperative. This organization could specialize in various handworks like welding, furniture making, carpentry, and other trades. The state could then employ these newly skilled individuals to work on government projects and sites.

Simply chasing them away without providing an alternative is not a solution. Without skills or opportunity, they are likely to return to the streets. This method offers a real path to productivity and cleans up the environment in a lasting, humane way.

I support this move, some of these beggars takeover road medians, bridges and waling path meant for pedestrians. Taking them out of the street is a right move.

The government should also clear the thugs and miscreants at major bus stops like Oshodi, Obalende, CMS,etc. They pose danger to law abiding citizens.

Very good. They should go and work. Very irritating to see people with at least one hand or legs begging

Send them to govt farms to work or learn a trade and then be employable. These beggars remet the money they make to an alfa in mosques. Some also work as informants
