Fahim Salem, CEO of Gokada, has given a speech following the ban of motorcycles and tricycles in certain part of Lagos.



The ban on commercial motorcycles - known as okada - and commercial tricycles - popularly called Keke Napep - also affected motorcycle ride-hailing services like Gokada and MAX.



Nigerians affected by the ban took to Twitter to express their displeasure at the ban. Some complained that they had to trek long distances to get to work.



In reaction to the ban and the tweets about it, Fahim Salem released a video.



He said he's been quiet regarding recent events because he's trying to "process it" and decide on how to react to it.



He went on to speak about the Gokada vision, why he started the company and how much money has gone into it. He also spoke about efforts made to train drivers extensively, how they were provided with materials to work better and how they monitored riders to eliminate the bad ones immediately so as to reduce bike accidents on the road.



He added that their efforts resulted in an accident rate of less than 0.1%.



He added that Gokada isn't just a job for many, but a means of funding their dreams, and the ban on okadas, including Gokada, effectively kills this dream and renders the riders jobless.

Sad but why would anyone want to use motorbikes or keke as a means of transportation? In London or New York or Dubai where all these people visit regularly do they use motorbikes or keke as their means of transportation?

what's your point biko??

Some actually do, but being wicked or trying to show power

Why compare UK/USA to Nigeria?

Is UK/USA running a blackout economy, Unstable policy/economy, pothole roads, insecured environment?

Do you think people had an alternative before choosing to ride okada or average passenger is comfortable flying bike around?

You can’t wake up one morning and declare Lagos a mega state, when the fundamentals of structured human existence are not available.

Let them solve basic things; power, jobs, roads, security and see what becomes of the state or country.

Politicians neglect their core responsibilities and pounce on the poor for distractive justification.

Those places have a proper transport system and infrastructure made up of railway, monorail etc and good roads.
Does Nigeria have any of these? You think you can just wake up and turn to New York or Dubai?
