Grammy-nominated Afrobeat musician and activist Seun Kuti has called out the Lagos state government over the recent ban of commercial motorcycles (Okada) and tricycles along major roads across the state.
The singer expressed his discontent with the new government ban on Instagram on Tuesday, February 4.
“Nigerian professionals have shown their true colors again as largely oppressors in waiting. Children dying in the hospital every day they don’t care. Miseducated and undereducated children they don’t care.
“Police brutality, no outrage but tell them to walk from bus stop to the office oh no the worst has happened!!!
“If u wish for your children or loved ones to be Okada and Keke riders please raise up your hand! We know these ain’t jobs.
“We pacify those we have failed with slave labor and slave wages and we are ready to fight for them to continue slaving away!! #getthesax,” Seun shared.
The ban officially took effect on Saturday, February 1 and many Lagosians have since been lamenting at the difficulty this has possed in navigating the city.
Just last week, commercial motorcycle operators with ride-hailing companies, MAX and Gokada, protested at the Lagos State House of Assembly.
