Since the enforcement of the ban, residents complained of gridlock, hike in transportation fare and unavailability of vehicles to convey them to their destinations.
During his eight-year tenure as the Lagos State Governor, Fashola also banned Okadas,“If you are concerned about security you must support the present Lagos governor now on Okada ban. As the Center of Excellence, motorcycles should not be our choice of transport,” he added.
While giving reasons for his support for Okada ban, Fashola narrated that he was once robbed in his home. He said, “Do we stand in reacting mode or proactive mode. If reacting, there is already a victim and a criminal. If we are proactive then how long can we sustain that?
