SANWO-OLU GOES AFTER OKADA RIDERS PLYING ‘ONE-WAY’
On Tuesday, Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu took aim at commercial motorbike riders, also referred to as Okadas, who were obstructing traffic on the Lagos-Badagry Motorway.
The governor halted his motorcade and pursued the riders, as seen in a viral social media video.
The Okada riders fled, some abandoning their motorcycles and passengers, as soon as they spotted him. But Sanwo-Olu’s team managed to apprehend five of them.
This morning, when lawless Okada riders spotted Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s convoy travelling in one direction on the Lagos-Badagry Motorway, they abandoned their motorcycles and the people within them. One of the perpetrators, an Army Lance Corporal, was taken into custody while riding his bike. pic.twitter.com/TTCYqYjuZs @jidesanwoolu

“Hey madam, you are a graduate and you allowed them to take you on a one-way… if you fall and you die, they will say the government killed you. What a shame,” Sanwo-Olu said in another video shared by his media aide Wale Ajetunmobi.
