Sir: It is inappropriate and smacks of double standard for the state government to create a conducive business environment for the manufacturers of motorcycle to go about their business activities, only for the same government to callously ban the use of the company products within the state.
My private investigation revealed that the whole scenario has everything to do with political vendetta. Or how else can you fully convince someone that a single private business that provides job opportunity for close to 4000 Lagosians of able bodied men, should be scrapped just like that? As the Ooni Of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi noted recently, the lackadaisical attitude by Nigerian government to get our youths productively engaged is tantamount to sitting on the keg of gunpowder.
Nigeria youths are hungry and therefore angry. The federal government of Nigeria cannot continue to shy away from their responsibility to supervise the ongoings in the states particularly when it touches the welfare of the populace. Presently, in Lagos State, virtually all the formerly displaced professional riders of Opay/Gokada, owing to Nigeria resilience spirit, converted to privately owned logistics dispatch/delivery services. Even then, the Ministry of Transportation has remembered to persecute them with stringent operating licenses charges.
