Residents of Ajao Estate in Oshodi-Isolo Local Government Area, on Thursday, appealed to the Lagos State Government to include their community in the `Okada’ ban list.

The concerned residents under the aegis of Ajao Estate Central Community Development Association staged a peaceful protest to the State Secretariat in Ikeja.

Adegboyega said residents of the estate could no longer sleep well as a result of fear and insecurity arising from uncontrolled operations of commercial motorcyclists.He said the presence of Okada in the community was an unwarranted invasion, alleging that the residents of Ajao Estate were no longer safe with the continuous operations of Okada in the community.

”Their activities had been banned in the estate since 2015 after they engaged the police in a fight. These criminal elements are back in our community in full force.

Which okada are they banning in Ajao estate again? Spiritual okada? There's no Okada in Ajao estate. They know not what their protest is about.

Another man's meat is another man's poison.

The yeye ajao estate wey no get road? They're more than mad oo!

The jidesanwoolu Govt of Lagos need to heed to the ply of these residents. Moreover, that vicinity is close to the international airport, hence, the need to sanitize the environment.
