Why not ban importation of this bikes ,govt will collect money from importers during the day then collect the bikes at 9te from buyers .

O' wrong now.
There's nothing wrong with bike taxis, but the guys operating them in most parts of Nigeria are lawless- lagos being the worst. They use bike taxis in other countries like Thailand but well regulated. Here, okada guys operate outside the law.

You are right. They are so lawless. Gokada and max were the best but unfortunately they didn't last long in Nigeria.

Re: Lagos State Taskforce Team Confiscates 80 Motorcycles In Yaba by T4taiwo(m): 6:22am On Feb 04, 2021
the only way to go is outright ban of okada, it's shouldn't have been an alternative to commuters in the first place, but because we don't have a visible plan for transportation in the country. and the greedy monsters in power leverage on this to massively import okada into the country.

I stay in lagos, and I had omitted okada from my list of transportation, because of their lawlessness and recklessness, they had turn many breadwinners to bread scavengers, cause havoc to sa many homes.

always plan yourself before going out, atleast 1-3 hours before schedule, if you can do away from okada please don't hesitate, life is precious.

U want Lagos state to shoulder all Nigeria problem? The last time Lagos state ask for special status, guess who voted against it? North and south East voted against it yet their people keep trooping into Lagos, Lagos is dying and since the fed govt is not ready to help, Lagos govt has no choice but take action.

These bike guys are 80-90% Foreigners. They are either staying here illegally or overstayed their time. It’s a real security threat having them litter everywhere, yet some people are saying govt shouldn’t seize their bikes. I’ve been waiting for this development, and the task force are now doing it. When Fashola banned them completely, did crime rate increase? Abeg leave sentiments, these guys are so carefree and constitute nuisance everywhere. Why would a bike drive against traffic on an expressway? Go to Mile 2 down to Ijesha expressway you’ll see these guys against traffic, for pedestrians to cross sef na war, cause they may be coming through one way and you’ll think you’ve cleared the road before crossing only for one idiot to come blaring horns or you hear vehicle sounds.

The government needs to ban all these guys and send them back to their countries. A country without laws has no sins.

Rubbish. Good riddance.

Why do you all pretend and make the state government look wicked? Government provided routes where okadas would ply. Government also provided routes where they must not ply. Some greedy okadas supported by get-there-quick citizens deliberately flout the order and expect not to get punished. What kind of people do we have in this country? Why must we continue this act of brazen lawlessness?

Greedy and make-it-rich-quickly okadas will always lose their okadas. Foolishly they quickly get other bikes and continue with their lawlessness on the same routes. Okadas must be totally banned in Lagos.

A lot of states have banned them. As we speak we have a lot of northerners coming to Lagos on the backs of trailers with their okadas to ride. Why will they not ride the same bikes in their respective states? Must they make 20,000 daily? Those who make 2,000 are satisfied and go back home in peace.

You support lawlessness and accuse Buhari and the governors of breaching the laws. As it stands this country will continue to get worse with such attitudes.
Nigerians are not ready to be govern, one is even saying the government should provide cars n buses for them, ask the person to show us if he don pay 50k on tax annually b4 e no fit talk.
We ain't ready, lawless is killing the masses than those holding the govt offices , we are doing ourselves

I simply cant comprehend why d government is so irrational and useless. Confiscating people's means of survival and livelihood with no other provision for them. Indirectly, Ure sending them 2 d streets.

How won't crime rate be on d increase with d high level of unemployment in d country.

What a moronic post!

Why can't your brain comprehend that people using such as their means of survival should be rational, useful and responsible?

Because it is your means of survival gives you the right to violate all road rules and even drive against traffic on expressway?

Many of you are monkeys that deserve the jungle you live in.

Organized transport companies should run roads in Lagos. Buses, cars and motorcyclists should be managed by transport companies like gokada, oride etc.

Some fooools will soon tell you that you are mean. That you want to create armed robbers and kidnappers when you apply such structure, law and order.

We should not even arrest kidnappers too because it is also a means for some families?
