Gani-publicity secretary of the party in Lagos speaks out over OKADA BAN

Okada ban was banned by the state govt based on the fact that 107 were killed and 512 were harmed by this method of transportation in the last two years. Also 98% robbery has been tied to Okada riders.
 Mr.Taofeek Gani responses to the ban


He said, “Seeing the level of hardship the restriction Okada has caused, I think the reaction of a sensitive government would be to reverse the decision. Fashola should learn from Jonathan. When Jonathan saw the level of protest against the introduction of the N5000 note, he stopped it.

He also reversed the total removal of petroleum subsidy in January because of the effect it would have on people. That is how leaders who are interested in the welfare of people act.

 “In spite of the fact that internally generated revenue in Lagos has risen to N48bn per month, they are still looking for unjust ways to make money. They insisted that firms such as courier companies should purchase motorcycles from government agents before being permitted to run on the roads.”

According to Gani, the traffic law is also meant to frustrate commercial bus drivers, who the new law stipulates must wear uniforms and badges that are to be purchased from the state government. He said, “ACN wants to push out all these people earning a living by transporting people and then handing over transportation in Lagos to their cronies.

They have driven Lagos from capitalism into imperialism. “ACN is now showing what it is made of. Before the election in 2011, they gave helmets and vests to the okada riders. The okada riders were behind Fashola everywhere he went to campaign, then they were not armed robbers and they were not causing accidents. Weeks after he got the second term, he started chasing them everywhere.

The same thing they did with the Lekki toll gates. They did not collect any toll until after the election.”
