I was speaking to someone about this issue of Agberos, and I told the person...Governance is like whac-a-mole. If you solve one problem, another rises. That is why I was praying GRV does not win because he would have turned Lagos into chaos...even those in Lekki would not be able to stay clear of major issues.

If you eliminate Agberos, what will you do with thousands of guys? Retrain then...some of them are drug addicts and drunkards...there is a reason they are doing agberos and I doubt they can do any formal education. What about artisan work? Have you seen some of these guys..you think they will learn plumbing or agriculture and wait for harvest and yields or for someone to call them for work before they can eat?

Lock them up in Jail...how many prisons will you build, how many staff, cost of feeding them and getting all of them through the court systems would be a major disaster.

So should we just accept this norm...NO

1. You normalize them like Lagos agreed to do...Lagos should print the tickets

2. Allow these guys to sell them - maybe 500 tickets @ N1000 = N50,000; Private vehicles can pay N100 per day...that is N2k - N3k per month and it will be used to pay for people to maintain roads, clean gutters, and so on.

3. Pay them daily - like N5000 (N100,000 weekdays) which is 10% of the total take in and their Ogas will take N2500 (5%) per person

4. Create a hierarchy of leadership - One oga will have like 10 guys under in covering major areas...so Oga will cash in N500,000 monthly

5. This process for this Team will generate N42,500 per person (85%) which is N8.5million monthly (Salary N1.5m from Revenue intake of N10m monthly) for one area...Lagos can easily have 500 of these areas raking in N5billion and N60 billion annually. Anambra, Onitsha can do the same and the money will be channels to fix roads, drainages and revamp the markets.

6. Give or take the Govt can play with the figures and bring in 70-75% and increase the payment for Oga or boys or Ticket sale

7. You can also sell Morning, Afternoon, and Evening and use different sets of boys so you generate 3 times the revenue, multiply the employment by 3 and use 2 sets of Ogas or Same...

8. They will have distinct wears that they pick up at the Oga in the morning, afternoon or evening and they can switch them so it will be difficult for copycats to make them or have companies that will supply them these wears with random colors weekly.

9. These will eliminate the fake agberos and also provide employment chain for the uniform or vest suppliers...they will also take care of the dry cleaning needs.

10. Youths need employment..money must flow...you need to cater to different types of people. Eliminating them is not the answer.

Sense no go kill you....

Continue to grow in wisdom....

Only the wise can recognize wisdom when they see it..

Sorry to have to quote your long epistle, but do you see the flaw in what you're proposing?
Youngsters, and even parents,yes! Will see no need for education, formal or informal and will see thuggery as the easy way out. Heck, even potential law enforcement recruits will not be left out in the hysteria.

Unfortunately, while you will avoid an immediate problem, you will be creating a bigger problem of perpetuating thuggery as more younger ones will see it as a very profitable way of life.. and then cycle never ends . And thuggery becomes very rife in the society. It will become a menace.
No don't manage evil.. deal with it once and for all!!

This is something the likes of tinubu and fashola had figured out long ago.
To some extent ajimobi and current seyi makinde is doing the same.

Not all problems can be solved with textbook approach.
Despite the huge number of agberos in Lagos, Lagos still functions properly and it's one of the safest cosmopolitan city in the world if you consider the crime level to other cities with same population all over the in the world.

But everyone wants to do gra gra and use Lagos agbero catch cruise during election.

I just laugh at Ibos that complain of Agberos in Lagos. If you check very well, a sizeable number Agberos in Lagos are Ibos and other non-Yorubas. I remember in 2017 in Ijora, these guys almost robbed me and my friend with the guise of getting Passengers. All attempts to tell them proved abortive as they insisted on taking my bag. I had to scare them off by calling a security operative on my phone. These guys were Ibos o.
Moreover, if you go to the East, anywhere in the East, and your Car breaks down, be ready to pay for that space or get your car moving. These are the same people complaining of Agberos in Lagos. Hypocrisy!

I'm 100% certain the number of agberos from Okoko to Mile 2 alone is enough to outnumber the entire number of agberos in Onitsha.

I invite those with knowledge of both axis to counter 😎

That being said, these people cannot be wholly rebranded all at once but the government should take over the entire operation and make it civilised. In Anambra, it's possible. In Lagos, hmmm.

You see the way they are speaking up against it. If it were to be in west they will come out to defend evil. The difference is clear, Igbo don't support evil.The speak against Buhari maladministration people from the west tagged them children of hate. They speak against having a drug lord as a president because of the future consequences you guys tagged it that Igbo hate Tinubu.

I can't believe I had to create an account just to reply to this comment. I was thinking you're making sense until I saw the part where you boldly wrote that an agbero should be paid like 500k monthly. Got me thinking, if an agbero should earn about 500k monthly with a lot of educated fellas earning not up to a fifth of that. What's stopping them all from dumping their different certifications for agberoism?
If this your solution is to be applied, then I'm seeing the number of agberos we have in Nigeria increase significantly.

T for thanks!
