See List Of Lagos Routes Where Okada, Tricycle Riders Can No Longer Operate

The Lagos State Government on Monday, commenced enforcement of the law which bans the operation of Motorcycles (Okada) and Tricycles (Keke) in select Local Governments (LGs) and Local Council Development Areas.

This development was disclosed in a statement released by the Commissioner of Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso and said the full enforcement begins on February 1.

Omotoso said that the safety and security of lives of Lagosians are paramount which is why the State and its Security Council decided to enforce the ban.

“The figures are scary. From 2016 to 2019, there were over 10,000 accidents recorded at the General Hospitals alone. This number excludes unreported cases and those recorded by other hospitals. The total number of deaths from reported cases is over 600 as at date.

“The rate of crimes aided by Motorcycles (Okada) and Tricycles (Keke) keeps rising. Motorcycles (Okada) and Tricycles (Keke) are also used as getaway means by criminals.

“Therefore, after consultations with stakeholders, the State Security Council, in compliance with the extant Transport Sector Reform Law 2018, has decided to commence in the following LGAs and LCDAs:

1. Apapa LG and Apapa Iganmu LCDA
