No decision yet to ban Okada operations in Nigeria – FG

Tamarauemi Ebimini

The federal government on Thursday declared that it was yet to take a concrete decision to outlaw the operation of motorcycles, popularly called Okada as a form of commercial transportation in the country.

Minister of State for Transportation, Ademola Adegoroye, made the clarification in Abuja while speaking at the Annual Strategic Stakeholders Summit of the Amalgamated Commercial Tricycle & Motorcycle Owners, Repairs & Riders Association of Nigeria (ACOMORAN).

This is coming in the wake of trending reports of plans by the authorities to ban the mode of commercial transportation and mining activities to curb arm supply to terrorists.

Specifically, the Attorney General the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, had given the indication in July saying: “Placing a ban on the use of motorcycles and mining activities will cut the supply of logistics to the terrorists. This will be done in the national interest.”

However, Adegoroye, at the event, Thursday, clarified that the Federal Executive Council (FEC) has not taken any decision on the proposed ban.
