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

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.

We simply adjust our livestyle in view of the reality on ground.

Okada and Keke has made a lot of us lazy and lacking in any physical activities. I remember one small girl telling the parents that she doesn’t want to go to UK for vacation simply because of, according to her, “one will trek and trek and trek...”

People have simply forgotten the health benefits of regular exercise and trekking is one.

So let’s hit the roads.
So on a day that there is heavy traffic you will trek from ikorodu to the island is that what you mean?
Exercise my foot...

For me it's a good idea but the timing is really wrong. What plan is on ground as alternative of livelihood for the bikers? How will they survive? Oh! May be we want them to be criminals, picking pockets and collecting phones, so the government would need to improve police force and other security agencies. We complain of traffic and our roads are bad with poor road networks. My point is as much as we are happy about the serenity on our roads, we shouldn't neglect those who would go hungry for this course. They are not trash, they are our brothers, infact the hardworking ones. I respect them far above the so-called yahoo boys.

Can they exert the same energy and ban danfo and those stupid molue? They constitute more nuisance on the road than Keke.

You can't have enviable city with the kind of nuisance constutes by okada riders.


Nobody should quote me about poverty oo. There are destitutes in other countries. No matter their state, they still have to follow the law if they want do anything.

I hear you. Sorry to disappoint you, I stay in Lagos. If you think it's all those old big and long yellow buses they call molue then you need to visit Lagos. What of all those big obalende buses, the long white rickety Oshodi to ikotun buses? Are they danfo?

i dont like the way people are using hausa bikers has a case study. please lets be considerate the hausa bikers later grow to do better in lagos, send their children to sch and also take returns back home. b4 u knw it we would have elevated the mentality of the northerners here and when they go bck theyll correct their brothers on how people here live with religious tolerance, together we making like better.
to me this is a non diplomatic strategy and to claim the security benefit undecided is a proof that lagos government cant secure the state without tribal discrimination.
mind you many yorubas are also affected this policy is against the poor not even one particular tribe
You can take a horse to the stream but you cannot force the horse to drink water. What about the schools goodluck Jonathan built for them during his tenure as a president what happen to the schools. Bros forget talk.

MY MAIN QUESTION IS KEKE AND OKADA THE PROBLEM OF LAGOS STATE ? A STATE WITH PLENTY BAD ROADS, NO PLAN , NO NOTHING. EVERYTHING JAM PACKED TOGETHER . THE SO CALLED TOP OFFICIALS AND FAMILIES THAT BRING THIS DUMB IDEA HAVE ALSO RIDE BIKES AND KEKE AT ONE POINT IN THEIR LIFE IN ORDER TO MEET UP WITH AN APPOINTMENT. BUT OUR PEOPLE ARE SO DUMB AND THINK EVERY DECISION THE GOVERNMENT TAKE , IS ALWAYS THE RIGHT ONE AND ADAPT IT EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW IT'S A BAD MOVE . PROTEST KWA? NEVER THEY WON'T . I READ MANY COMMENT SAYING THAT IT'S A SWEET MOVE. IMAGINE YOU'RE A FATHER OF 3 CHILDREN AND YOU HAVE AN HAND WORK THAT DON'T PAY THAT MUCH OR COME STEADY AND YOU HAVE A BIKE THAT YOU USE AS A SIDE HUSTLE JUST TO PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE AT NIGHT AND BE ABLE TO SEND YOUR KIDS TO ONE OF THE AVERAGE PRIVATE SCHOOL IN YOUR AREA. NOW THIS YEYE GOVERNMENT HAVE BLOCK THE SIDE HUSTLE NOW . HOW WILL YOU SURVIVE NOW ? HOW WILL YOU TELL THAT KIND OF PERSON IN THAT SITUATION, IT'S GOOD MOVE ..

THE OP SHOULD HAVE WAIT TILL MONDAY BEFORE HE/SHE ASK THAT QUESTION . I TRUST MANY PEOPLE WILL SWEAR FOR THIS CLUELESS GOVERNMENT

Sweet move by my state governor.....Those Keke Napep has really dented my car with their yeallow paint...

We still have Molue in Lagos o, they ply the Abule Egba, Iyana-Ipaja Route. While the white ones Oly the Ikorodu route. You should see these buses at oshodi, most of them don't even have breaks and the drivers usually spark two cables together to start them.

No be today dem don dey ban okada.

Right from when Tinubu was governor to Fashola and then Ambode till now.

Las las Okada full everywhere.

The problem is not making the law but is in enforcing it.

With corruption still in the force, ban on okada is lip service

With no alternative provided, Okada will return.

I was traveling through Niger state, the number of used bikes I saw at location and a crowd of people inspecting the bikes, it seemed to come from Lagos as second hand.

Those who invested on the bikes and keke will lose heavily. Demand for used bicycles will increase while the huge number of bikes and keke from Lagos will increase pressure on neighboring states.

I literally trekked from ojuelegba to yabatech this morning.. On my way back from shoprite, I trekked to doyin

What is the way forward my people?

How has the ban on keke and okada affected your movement in Lagos?

Lagos residents only..


Any city that want to develop to live comfortable don't need commercial transport such as Okada, keke and the less. what lagos need is light lane, standard water transport and government organize commercial buses. we don't need Niger republic, Benin and Togo republic to be mess up Nigeria biggest city with Okada. No tax, not ready to obey traffic laws. what will happens if a Nigerian living in lagos walk down to bus-stop to take a bus? in Europe is must to walk from your house or mall to Taxi rank. In our neighboring Accra Ghana, poor Guinea Bissau, Senegal, Gambia, Onitsha,Awka Abuja you must walk to Bus stop to take a bus or Taxi so what's wrong when people in lagos walk?. we need to contribute to make Lagos a good living place, we don't need to allow all this aboki to mess upo every where. they don't pay house rent, they live in batcher houses along badagry express road demarcation, is road demarcation a living place? I am support lagos state government 100%. is time we stop some nonsense
