Instead of banning them,why not create a separate lane for them,same way it was done for BRT buses. |

Some ppl were happy because the ban was targeted at northerners, who were heavily engaged in the Okada business, lest do they know that the ripple effect will come back an pinch them.LOL! |

stevenson007: Some of the people riding okadas are in their teens. They were not even born when Okada was born in Nigeria. So they were not born before Okada cam and this was probably their first job. The issue is not this simple. It's the simpleton approach taken by the state that caused this issue. How many Okada riders are on the road? How many passengers daily? Where do passengers go? What is their job? An example. A nanny comes every morning to take care of the kids so that you can go to work. Nanny can't show up early today. Multiply nanny be 10,000 and u see the madness that happened this morning. Our decision makers decide with only them in mind. They have cars, private jets, nanny can afford to be on site etc and they bungle public policy decisions up because they just don't connect. I was shocked to realize you can get a reasonably descent meal in Abuja for 250 naira right in Central area. It's amazing how many things we assume. This should have gone through research and it should have been phased. 2 Likes |

The problem with okadas is that they did not self regulate. They allowed any riff raff with opposable thumbs to become okada rider. They ride with impunity and become an unruly crowd if you should be involved in a fender bender with one of them. Good bye to trash, here’s hoping lame a$$ Seyi Makinde will have the intestinal fortitude to do same for Ibadan. I pray, 1 Like |

According to information, the Lagos State Government intends to relocate Computer Village to this location and return the current Computer Village to a residential area. If you have money to invest, now would be a good time to buy land in this area. |

Virgin Atlantic eventually did come as "virgin Nigeria" Only for your govt to demand bribes from them ( part of which Richard Bradson, the CEO wrote in his book)... When he wouldn't yield, they started taking major routes like UK and US from from him. Why? Cause they wanted to float arik.. The summary of all this is, Nigeria is the worst place to invest money. If you take this same dedication and invest in a place like the United States, you're better off by far. Akiliogidi: 2 Likes |

stevenson007: The truth is that there are no alternatives in Nigeria. A country with a population of 200m people yet only generates 5k MW of electricity is doomed. Also, there are no other reliable means of transport. London has a population less than half of Lagos, yet the London tube probably has a higher daily traffic than all Lagos danfo and BRT put together. How can people cope in a mega city without rail service, just how? Beautifying Lagos isn't as important as making life easier for the people of Lagos. |

You are missing the point, They want those poor families out so they could buy off the lands (with tax money), develop it and have a contemporary city. The only problem is that tenacious once would remain and vehicle number would increase which would lead to more traffic jam. I would suggest you hold on, the value of your property would increase. This is real estate goldmine (we are talking 5 to 10 year only). wunmi590: |

DownChelsea: Now that is where the issue is. The populace do not have an issue with the ban. Our issue is with the clear short sightedness of the government. A better government would have foreseen these obvious challenges and come up with palliative measures to mitigate the foreseen challenges before enacting the policy. This just summarises the difference between us and those in the other side of the world. |

If the government follows up this wonderful policy properly, everybody will have the governor to thank in less than a year, due to how sane, lawful, peaceful Lagos would be. But for now, the price for a wonderful Lagos MUST BE PAYED by all. |

olisaemeka1: When the people voted, they gave the government a mandate to manage their affairs on their behalf. At the end of four years, the people can choose to rescind or renew the mandate. Democracy is not exercised on an issue by issue case, it is exercised periodically at elections. If the electorate wants it can file an order for recall with INEC, if it gets the requisite votes, it can recall the entire legislature. It can also stage protests and peaceful demonstrations but it cannot be an alternative government that runs the government side by side with the government it freely elected. |
