In February, 2020 the Lagos state government banned Okadas and Tricycles in some areas in state which caused public outrage with a lot of middle class Nigerians condemning the ban.
Some Lagosians blamed the government for not providing an alternative before the ban took effect in the month of February. Some of the riders cried of untold hardship the ban had caused them but the government said there was no going back on it’s plan to rid the city of Okadas and Tricycles.
The Lagos state government also said that okada related accidents had reduced since the ban which is a good development but Nigerians sho have to trek a certain distance to board a vehicle do not find the situation funny.
A few hours ago, Innoson was trending and Nigerians called the Vehicle company to come up with affordable cars for the ordinary Nigerians to purchase to make lives easy for Lagosians. The mini sized car below was spotted in Lagos and rumored to be the cars to replace the Tricycles.
See reactions to the mini cars below:
