Oyo State Begins Motorists And Cyclists Registration. by isaiahblessin: 3:42am On Nov 23, 2012 |
Oyo State Government on Thursday met with commercial drivers, operators of commercial motorcycles, popularly called okada, and other stakeholders in the transportation sector in line with the enumeration and registration of stakeholders in the state. The meeting, which held at the Oyo State Secretariat, Agodi, Ibadan on Thursday, was to sensitise stakeholders on the enumeration and registration exercise billed to hold soon in the state. Declaring the meeting open, the Special Adviser to Governor Abiola Ajimobi on Information and Orientation, Mr. Gbolagade Busari, explained that the initiative was aimed at improving the transportation sector. The programme tagged, ‘Oyo State Transporters Enumeration and Registration Scheme,’ is aimed at providing training and safety briefing to drivers and riders in order to minimise accidents within the state. Busari, who described the move as part of government’s transformation agenda, added that the enumeration and registration of operators and their owners became necessary in view of crimes committed with motorcycles and commercial vehicles in the state. According to him, the programme is designed to identify genuine stakeholders in the state transportation sector and also help government meet their needs. Busari said, “We want to transform Oyo State and change the orientation of the people.” Giving details of the programme, the Chief Executive Officer, Synercom Group, Mr. Adewale Adebiyi, said, “All taxi, okada, tipper and lorry drivers would be registered on local government basis. “They would enjoy free eye and blood tests and would be given free high visibility jacket that were already numbered. “All these would help commuters and other members of the public identify genuine commercial drivers and cyclists as well as help government offer free medical service with up to N10,000 value in cases of accident. The programme will cost each operator between N1,500 and N3,000, depending on the category in which they fall.” Source: Punch Ng What's your think about this? |

Can't anything be done within hundreds of Naira? Must everything always amount to thousand and above in Naira? |

This is what the egg heads in lagos should have considered Rather than frustrating young people when employment rates is at its lowest and traffic congestion is at its worst. Regulation rather than an outright ban The major problem attributable to the use of commercial motorcycle is the security lapse it engenders. It's very easy to commit crime with a motor cycle. That's why I support its ban in some states (especially the north). but all in all you have to consider that generally road networks in Nigeria are so poor and . . . . has any body ever connected the increase in demand for PMS to the ban on okada. It is a far cheaper alternative for the citizenry and even the nation 1 Like |
