Writing this from the place of action, Lasu Ojo Axis.
Over time there has been growing tension/dispute between the transport union of that branch (Iyana-Iba-Agbara) and the okada riders. Reason being the fees charged by the union on the operation of the riders.

...And today, hell broke lose, as fight ensured between the two parties. The cause of distress hasn't really been identified. But in speculation, it should be related to the charges.

For one, these people are distorting the safety of inhabitants of that axis.
...

...and it is painful as the union involved are a supposed extension of the government. Efforts by the police have been made to curtail the spread of this unrest, by the way.
That it is not the end point of this thread.

Aren't Okada riders banned from operating in Lagos State?

Because of them, the junction that connects Igando road and badagry road together is always blocked. Traffic is the order of the day over there.Disregard for traffic laws isn't left out even.

In fact these people have made commuting to Mile 2, en route down to Orile difficult.

... I do not think Lagos state government is giving enough look into these issues.

To think that most of them are the shortcomings of underperformance of the northern governors makes it more painful
even. Do governor Sanwoolu have to keep allowing them constitute nuisance in
