Lagos State Government on Friday banned activities of National Union of Road Transport Workers across the various motor parks in the state.
The state Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Kayode Opeifa, disclosed this in a chat with journalists in Alausa, Ikeja.
The briefing was also attended by his counterparts in the Justice and Information and Strategy Ministries, Mr. Ade Ipaye and Aderemi Ibirogba.
The meeting was convened to highlight the operational mechanism for the newly signed Road Traffic Law in the state.
Opeifa said, “The government recognises the right for NURTW members to associate. But it believes that the motor parks should be made easy for those who want to carry out their business of commuting in the state to do so without interference.
“Henceforth, union activity is no longer allowed in all the garages in the state. What they need to do now is to operate the way other unions in the state operate by using a recognised office.”
The commissioner revealed that the development also prohibits members of the NURTW from collecting money on the roads from commuters.
“No union member should be seen on the roads collecting money from transport operators. It is illegal and this is how it is contained in the white paper adopted by the state government,” he told journalists on Friday.
He said drivers and conductors in Lagos will be required to wear uniform, adding that this is meant to improve the safety of lives and property within the state.
“Government will soon commence the re-registration of motor parks across the state. The situation where people just park vehicles in some areas and converting them to motor parks is now illegal,” Opeifa noted.
He said there will be differentiation between motor parks, garages and bus stops.

naijapatriot: Dedeike didnt mention the road in question...Inasmuch as I have reservations on GEJ's method of governance, It wont be nice to give a dog a bad name in order to kill him

chucky234: You were one of the first people to buy SGS3 in Nigeria bu[b]t I was one of the few people that imported the SGS3 into Nigeria,[/b]do you see how stu:pid you are?
You claimed to have used all iphones,SGS3 and One X without evidence, but I said I have used them and you can find evidence on the NL phone ad section. I have been importing high-tech phones for over five years and has been one of the consistence sellers on NL for the past three whole years,I just bought 20 pieces of the Samsung galaxy pocket from Samsung at the rate of N18,900 per unit then decided ti sell them out to NLanders for N17,000 per unit.
I have sold laptops on NL at unbelievable prices that's because I was the West Africa sales manager for an American tech company for three years and you foolishly think my appointment was a fluke.
So tell me what makes you think you know jack about tech
You keep talking about 2gb RAM and GPU and CPU, benchmark and yet claimed to know shit about tech,I still repeat that the One X is a better phone. If you mention benchmark PI then take the One S as it flop both the One X and S3 in that regard.
All your empty ideas were copied from the internet where junkies analyzed phones they never thave the opportunity to use,my argument are solely based on user experience.
Sure, the S III has a bigger battery (2100mAh), but
the Exynos chipset clearly lacks the extra
power-saving core of Tegra 3 while the One X has a power-saving fifth core to backup its battery which guarantee a long usage duration.
The polycarbonate boby of the HTC One X eclipsed the glossy plastic body of the S3, the HTC sense UI is amazing.
The music experience on the One X with the Dr. Dre beat audio earpiece is unrivalled not even the Samsung TouchWiz can beat the Sense UI, the 3D performance of the One S is also better than the One X and S3.

jennykadry: Cheiii una wey dey naija no know wetin una get. I last ate cooked groundnut 2 years ago, agabalumo don reach 5 years, liki-liki nko

PetroDolla: don't joke? but your country is a complete joke all over the world, the mention of nigeria invokes something like......'oooooh that country?' most of you are not only foolish, but completely deluded morons that is why you can't see what the rest of the world sees in your useless country. any wonder your country is in the gutter at the moment. chei, naija we haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaail

PetroDolla: You are so sick,just like your sicko countrimen and women. you are this, you are that. so tell me, how come so many nigerians are so desperately poor-90% of your suffering massess survive on less than $2 a day, how come nigeria has one of the highest child and maternal mortality rates in the world, how come your roads have become a death trap, how come you are the 7th largest producer of oil and yet can't get regular power and even more puzzling you are incapable of refining your own crude? how come most of you university students are either prostitutes,kidnappers armed robbers or secre cult members,how come people finish university in nigerian today and can't write or read english? how come the biggest industry in your phucked up country today is kidnapping? how come your country that has become such a great embarrassment to Mother Africa occupies the lowest ranks in the United Nations Human development Index profiling? And for God's sake why is your country so fucke-d? And ooooh talking about dicks, our Ghanaian women don't suck the dicks of dogs, that is reserved for nigerian women in Italy

PetroDolla: You ain't seen nothin yet. the fuckin boko-harremed, generator fumes-induced eeeeediots are hysterical because of yellow fever card? you ain't seen nuthin yet, bokoharamic dogs

PetroDolla: So why is your nonsense country so phucked up today, if you have all the human and natural resources?

igbo boy: na wa o, the more you write the more apparent your daftness is...you just dey switch flow anyhow from "ibori being an igbo governor" to "did i mention igbo state" ....my guy just sharap there and manya like 5 bottles of beer cos u are a certtified dafteee...

ara-wolowo free schools are dumb people producing factories as evidenced by your type.

I am a Magnified nicompoop, infact my parents are orastracized village donkey..your schematic incoherent discourse on NL is blatant rubbish...

my lineage is Onye ara

xwolverine: This is called intelligence and calculation. You assume if he died during the June12 struggle, his dead body would become the governor of Lagos state? even you god Ojukwu was rejected by his own people.





Second class citizens? PDP has been ruling you guys in the east since 1999, and your regional party apga doesn't even have a foothold, who is really a second class citizen to the Hausas?
shows your level of intelligence

We know you are pained by the war and you lost a lot, why dont you just move on with your miserable life and stop calling people names because they dont support your agitations?

stop waiting till when the country splits as if that will decide if you will be succesful in life. No region has monopoly of corrupt politicians, and marginallisation, what is the assurance that your biafra would not be controlled by the ruling class? check what has been happening in [b]the present eastern states, with odili, ibori, amaechi, orji and the likes, [/b]embezzling money. even when the country splits, its still going to be business as usual for the politicians, @Jp philips rightly pointed out that the war was premedidated based on the self ambition of ojukwu, simples.

Abeg make we hear word.

Mind you I am not Yoruba, but you need to learn self believe and know what you can do for yourself, not what the region or country can do for you.

igbo boy: chai which ara-wolowo school you go? the one foe ife or the one for ekiti?

Ok nigeria was part of the british empire so goodluck jonathan is a british president smh...daft boi...rivers was part of the eastern region does that make governors of present day rivers governors from the east?

Abeg no dey talk again cos this so called sophisticated school una dey attend for the west baffles me....Abeg just go Alaba make one Nna take you under his wing as an apprentice cos your father has wasted his money in sending you to a half baked ekiti school.

loquacious non entity like you, you are the epitome of arrant display of unsophisticated madness..abhorrent im.be.cile...

One_Naira: I just need to ask what joy una get from this?

From brixtonye pretending to be british, to an old member that pretended to be latin american to you pretending to ghanaian. Im not even going to include those pretending to be from other ethic group. Wtf joy do una get from this.

Dude you are nigerian. Most certainly yoruba. You wanna know how I knew
1.) The landlock comment.
2.) The oil comment and ss comment.

Most of the people I hang out with are ghanaians and i've traveled to that country many times. Till date I have never meet a ghanaian that knows what is igboland, yorubaland, hausaland, ijawland, etc or where or which regions belong to whom. Ive never meet one that knows ethnic groups in nigeria excluding igbo and yoruba nor the cities or states which inhabit those tribe including igbo and yoruba. Many thinks the hausa population in nigeria is the same as there's [which is minority]. The ignorance nigeria has about ghana and its indigenous (knowing very little about the country) is the same ignorance ghanaian have about nigeria.

Dude una need to stop with the pretense. Its getting pathetic

igbo boy: This is how i know you are Yoruba....you called odili and ibori governor of eastern state...
No SS man will say Rivers state or Delta is in the east
North knows the difference in region.


So this leaves ofemanus as the option for you, since Yoruba's idea of Nigeria is if your name has arabic origins then you are hausa (very son dem go call oshiomole hausa cos his middle name na Aliyu)
if your name has say Mofe,you are Yoruba...
if non of the above then you are igbo (so efemena is igbo, nosa is igbo, ufoma is igbo, elohor is igbo, edet is igbo, rukwevwe is igbo, priye is igbo, jumbo is igbo). Una daft well well sha no be today.

Kanto: @lagcity: the first thing you notice about a coward is that they are loudmouthed, all noise and no action. That is why Brigadier ogundipe instead of assuming office as head of state became ben johnson and ran away, that is why Adekunle, Lt general akinrinnade, bola tinubu and others ran away during the june 12 crisis before any war had even started,

Kanto: that is why General Oladipo Diya was crying like a baby, that is why when yorubas were being killed by the Abacha junta during the june 12 wahala you only make noise without action. Declare war and fight you couldnt, because you were too afraid to contemplate how you would have been used for mincemeat and so you choose the cowardly route of dieing many times before your death. You guys are quite simply bed wetting wimps and slimy cockroaches.

When awolowo was imprisoned for coup plotting and the yoruba region was on fire with yorubas killing themselves, yoruba officers in their usual cowardice chickened out. If not for the Eastern officers who made the mistake of acting to stop the carnage in the west not knowing that the people they were helping are slimy backstabbers, the yorubas would have totally destroyed themselves while all the cowardly yoruba officers did nothing.

William shakespeare said that cowards die many times before their death while a brave man dies but once. you yorubas die a thousand times before your deaths because you are bedwetting wimps.

Because of your corwardice and parasitic nature you joined your hausa masters to fight a war were you preyed on defenceless people, after the war you ended up as 2nd class citizens serving your hausa masters. What a shame! That is what happens to loud but empty wimps like yorubas who cannot stand and fight for their rights. It is better to fight and loose a war than to fight on the winning side and end up a 2nd class cockroach.

Not to worry, very soon religious war will start in your area and this time there will be no eastern officers to do a coup and save your dirty arses. This time around all of you will perish and nigeria will be better for it because you cockroaches introduced all the vices that ruined the nation from the first republic when you introduced coup plotting, the first state of emergency, election rigging corruption, thuggery, arson, mass murders etc You yorubas also introduced the most heinous vice of mass murders and genocide of defenceless civilians including women and children not only in nigeria but in africa. From Adekunle-Awolowo in Biafra, major paul okuntimo in the niger-delta task force and obasanjo in Odi bayelsa state and Zaki Biam benue state where he gave orders and the whole odi and zaki biam community were totally wiped out. In all these incidents yoruba cowardly mass murderers who are expert in preying on defenceless people were behind the mass murder of defenceless civilians including women and children.The most recent yoruba genocide being the mass graves in Odi and zaki biam is there for all to see.

It is obvious that without you cockroaches and all the destructive vices you introduced, the nation would have been better. But the wheel is turning and i urge you to write down todays date and mark my words, because the price will very soon be paid by you cockroaches.

I dont have time to be engaging with ignorant and cowardly cockroaches. Am off on vacation to do better things with my time and dont forget to take a bath because yorubas are well known for being very dirty and ugly!

Beaf:
What is anti-people? Your inability to believe in yourself enough to manufacture pins?
[s]GEJ did not manufature the low self-esteem that plagues the majority of Nigerians so much that they will pull their neighbours down and refuse to apply their hands or engage their brains.

Every year, you hear that the economy has grown, yet you feel poorer. Doesn't it occur to your kind to sit down and deeply analyse what the countries set up is? If the economy has grown, it simply means someone has gotten richer; but who? The only thing of significance we are trading is oil, so it wouldn't take even a r[i]e[/i]tard an hour to conclude that the increase in the economy is limited to the oil marketers. They take your money, phuck your woman and then you leap into the streets to fight not them, but GEJ.
Clever hunh? Anti-people indeed.

Those who demonstrated, unwittingly did so to continue feeding the oil marketers; some out of innocent ignorance, many because they were paid and the rest because they are id!ots. It is incredible for anyone to be given the keys out of jail, only for them to demonstrate to remain in jail. Bruv, thats mind boggling shiit right there.[/s]

Omo_Tier1:
This truth remains! NIGERIA SHALL OUT LIVE GEJ.

To all Nigerians, whether home or in the diaspora that live daily, praying and walking justly for a Nigeria where competence and National patrotism is the order of the day, I say to you, do not give up! Remember this: The darker the Night, the closer the morning.

With GEJ's government, we have been plunged into the Darkest of Nigeria's dark reign and this gives me hope that a Nigeria free of incompetent and tribalistic and unpatrotic folks like GE is arising and our children, your children would live in a Nigeria, whether North or South, that is prosperous, vibrant and corruption free. This I know is going to happen and it will happen!

@Topic,
Just look the pic posted by OMA4J. If that is truly Boyloaf and his boyz, you could deduce onething from that pic : A yes Sir atmosphere!

Why on earth do we need to send these militant abroad for training? why can't we bring these foriegn consultants to Nigeria, set up these facilities, and get the boys trained and have a ptogramme in place that would later make some of these boys the handlers of these training facilities? Surely this would create more jobs for the Nigerian economy!

Beaf:
[b]Shouldn't you be more worried about your own governors that for 51 years have relied on an official almajiri system? [/b]Why is your state a net absorber of revenue, rather than a generator? The answer to that question would deeply embarrass any one witha glimmer of morality.

I am much more worried for those whose sense of innovation and productivity have been denuded to nothingness from feeding fat on a region of the country. Unfortunately for una, dat region don tire.
If you are jealous of boyloaf for his being sent to inspect training facilities for militants; then feel free to become a militant for tin, cocao, rubber, oil palm etc. Simply occupy your own resources, make your own money and keep your eyes to yourself.

Dude, join the call for true federalism. Asking to end corruption is a fallacy when the country's economy is exploitative, or how do you exploit people transparently?

sheyguy:
keep it up, we already know ur denial tactics.was it possible for any south south man to come out and say this sort of shiit in the 50s? Even your past hero know whats up back then. I no blame u at all. For now while Nigeria sucks ur oil u can occupy my arse while u scream occupy ur oil on the pages of NL.
