The Lagos State Government has extended Okada ban to four more Local Government Areas and five Local Council Development Areas(LCDAs).

Commissioner for Transport, Dr Frederic Oladeinde confirmed the development, noting the decision was approved after a review of the earlier ban on commercial motorcycles operation in six local councils.

The councils where the total Okada ban would be enforced include Kosofe, Oshodi-Isolo, Shomolu and Mushin.

Others are: Ikosi-Isherri LCDA, Agboyi-Ketu LCDA, Isolo LCDA, Bariga LCDA, and Odi-Olowo LCDA.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has ordered full enforcement from September 1, 2022.

In May, he had announced indefinite and total ban operation of commercial motorcycles on highways and six local governments and nine LCDAs.
