In a statement made available to Channels Television in Minna, the government noted that adequate arrangements have been made to cushion the effect of the ban.
It also added that the state Ministry of Transportation has now taken full delivery of 1000 units of Mahindra Tricycles (KEKEN TALBA) in addition to 8 units of 18-seater buses and 12 units of 100 capacity Bus Rapid Transport (BRT) buses that have already been put on the roads to ease transportation problems in the state capital.
The statement dismissed concerns that motorcycle operators would be put out of job as a consequence of the ban, saying that the newly purchased tricycles would be distributed to Okada operators through the Amalgamated Commercial Motorcycle Riders Association of Nigeria (ACOMORAN).
