safarigirl:You have spoken well. The main cause of concern is the keke ban. Many of the routes don't have any other mode of transport except keke and it has been sheer hell for commuters in these places. My work area is a typical example. |

TonyeBarcanista: You have never been with the masses Have you gone to Twitter to see people complaining about trekking miles? Do you know how much energy one exerts, trekking under the sun? Do you know most of those people woke up by 3 or 4 in the morning to get to work, after going to sleep at 10PM? Do you know they did not even have time for breakfast, because they had to rush out to beat traffic? Do you know people are paying up to 2 or 3k to get to work because of the hike in fares? People that just paid school fees last month, have had to find alternative means of transportation to get their kids to school, do you have any idea what that will cost them? Kids that were using keke to get to school and had no complaints. Did you see people's children packed into a pick-up truck like animals, because the ban has affected their means of transport? What about the hundreds of thousands rendered jobless by this ban? The GOkada riders and employees that have been laid off, what about them? Let me not even ask about the other okada riders that your ilk term the bad eggs. How can you claim to be a man of the masses, when you clearly don't give a sh*t about the health or financial challenges this ban has caused millions of people? You are a politician. You think like one, you don't see people, you see numbers. If you ever saw people, you would never write such uninformed garbage |

TonyeBarcanista: When you were born, did you not meet tricycles? Were you alive in that time, when there were no tricycles? What do you know of that time? Do you know the population of Lagos before the advent of tricycles? Do you know the population today? Are they the same amount of people? What about minimum wage, cost of living, are they the same as it was before the advent of tricycles? What was the working population? What time did they have to leave for work? How many cars were on the road? Let us bring back the horses to aid transportation too, since we are going back in time. See Ehn, Tonye, except you want to sound like a total dolt, bereft of common sense, you will drop this particular argument, lest you end up disgracing whatever little education you may have gotten. |

I am aware of all you enumerated my sister! But true leadership is doing what is right for the good of the society even when it doesn't feel right by a section of the society. I don't expect people not to feel effect of change like this but I know for sure that if government follow the plan to the letter, it will end in praise. Like I said, I belong to the masses and will aalways take position that I believe is of the greater good of all irrespective of popular opinion. safarigirl: |

TonyeBarcanista:which section of the society? What kind of bourgeoise talk is this? The masses that matter, the actual voting population have been greatly abused this week by a government they voted in, and you think it right? You Think it is the people riding Lexus jeeps and Mercedes Benz that voted Sanwo Olu? Because right now, that is the only section of the population that is not facing hell on the streets. Do you know who the masses are? The less privileged, those who cannot fight fort themselves because the society has f*cked them over. Those are the masses, not people like you that clearly, have little to no troubles. You are endorsing their continued suffering. You are not proposing alternatives to alleviate their suffering, you are reducing their worth to 'a section of the society', you have condemned them to a life of continued battering by the government and its policies, because you clearly do not think them worth a thought. You have gagged them more, the voiceless people you should concern yourself with, have been reduced to 'a section of the society'. They don't matter because they don't have money. And you say you are not a politician? Guy, you are a politician, your conscience is gone. 1 Like |

Ishilove: You are wrong. I live and work in Lagos, in fact I work in apapa which happens to be the epicenter of this okada cancer!! I will no say the overall safety of the majority of Lagosians should be compromised because some people want a means of transport that suit only them. |

safarigirl:All these are emotional talk my sister. Government is to implement policies that benefit the society irrespective of the discomfort it may cause a section of the populace. Election is over! It is time for BS to deliver on mandate given him... In 2023 he will face the populace to give account of his stewardship. |

we really have forgotten a time wen agberos were prohibited from collecting money from drivers n riders alike, the way crime went up isn't child's play. Those who were killed and robbed wouldn't never forget easily how one chance, pick pockets especially at oshodi (before renovation) , robberies became the order of the day, I pray it doesn't get to that |

ProWalker: Say what ![]() What alternatives are there for keke routes, you expect a worker to trekk from Guiness to Adeniyi jones every day ![]() Bike I support but keke no. Only thing is keke should be banned on the expressway which they hardly ply. |

ProWalker: I didn't ask u to spoon feed me. I only asked u a simple question which u can't answer. If u can't spoon feed urself on a subject which u say exists, how then do u want to spoon feed me? I didn't tell u that there is a law banning okada neither did I tell u that such a law doesn't exist. What u failed to do( and u failed woefully) is to intimate us on d law that u vehemently say exists. Its dont no y u are finding it difficult to state d law. D discussion is unproductive in ur opinion because u never expected anyone to challenge d validity of ur comments |
Re: Okada Restriction In Lagos: Sanwoolu Is On The Side Of The Law And Has Done Well by NoToPile: 3:30pm On Feb 06, 2020 |
TonyeBarcanista: Everybody is talking about okada. Nobody is talking about keke, is there a law banning that too nobody has been able to answer that question. My main grouse is that of keke, even the palliative measures cant take routes keke take. Is there going to be a bus from Guinness- Allen, within Ikeja GRA, Doyin- eric moore, shitta- Bode thomas etc. Would those buses ply those routes ![]() Thats the main issue. |

Pls what is "development", what does it entail and how is d ban on okada/keke without d provision of alternatives "development"? U also said "we sometimes don’t think like developed people yet we shout we want development". Pls how is d Lagos state govt thinking like d govts of "developed people"? |

I console those who were affected in this heavy change and am pleading you should find something else to do and don't steal. If u steal, that's your end of. I take off.... |

TonyeBarcanista: What is d correlation with ur above comment and d questions I asked previously which are as follows?: Are u saying u haven't read d law? Why should I go and read d law when u have read it? Tell me d part u have read? What are d "undesirable elements"? Y haven't they been rid off? What is d law banning okada? What means of transportation should we be discussing in 2020? Should we be discussing danfo and small doctor? |
