PDP blames President Buhari for Lagos Okada ban - Edoman - 02-06-2020 PDP blames President Buhari for Lagos Okada ban The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has blamed President Buhari for the ban of Okadas and tricycles better known as Keke Napeps in Lagos state. In a statement signed by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, the party said the excruciating ordeal residents of Lagos state are facing following the ban on the use of commercial motorcycles and tricycles (Keke Marwa) in the state should be blamed on President Buhari who, in 1985, terminated the initial Lagos Metro Rail Line project started by the government of Alhaji Lateef Jakande to facilitate mass transportation within Lagos, as Nigeria’s commercial nerve center, and surrounding cities. The PDP in its statement, said if President Buhari had not terminated that laudable project by the Lagos state government, Lagosians would not be suffering the transportation infrastructure deficit they are faced with today. Quote:''By now, Lagos state would have been boasting of state-of- the-art transportation infrastructure and facilities with associated economic boom like her peers in other parts of the world.The PDP counselled the government of Lagos state to immediately adopt alternatives to ease the suffering of the people as their welfare ought to be its primary focus of governance. The party said the Federal Government should also apologize to Lagos state for terminating the metro rail line and take urgent steps to address the transport situation of the state. |
