The Chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Lagos State, Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly called MC Oluomo, has said he is talking to the Lagos State Government to review the ban and restriction on okadas and keke riders in the state.
Oluomo, who made this known to newsmen through his aide, Jimoh Buhari on Monday, February 3, 2020, also revealed that he was in a meeting with bus drivers, and had warned them not to increase bus fares.
This is coming three days after Lagos Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, banned commercial motorbikes known locally as okadas; and three-wheeled motorized rickshaws called kekes, from the state.
