The statement said “Consequent upon the resistance of some members of commercial Okada riders’ association in the state on a daily ticket consolidation of N100 fee payable to the association and N100 payable to the State Government as road tax agreed upon by the Commercial Okada Riders’ association and the State Government, the Governor, Mr. Gboyega Oyetola, in his magnanimity has once again exhibited a portrait of virtue to continuously create a bridge of peace and
tranquility among the citizenry by ordering suspension of the exercise till further notice in order to entertain all concerns.
“All commercial Okada riders in the State are therefore enjoined to continue with their daily activities devoid of rancour.”
