The first 500 of the 5,000 last mile buses proposed to replace okadas will be launched next week, Lagos State Governor Bababjide Sanwo-Olu said Monday.
He spoke at the stakeholders’ meeting on security held at the Adeyemi Bero auditorium in Alausa, Ikeja.
According to the governor, clamping down on okada was part of measures to ensure security of life and property of residents.
There have been outcries against the okada menace, especially the lawlessness of riders and tendency to commit crime with the motorcycle.
