LAGOS State Government will from July bring in what it describes as First Mile and Last Mile (FMLM) mobility solution to replace banned Okada and tricycle.
According to the Transportation Commissioner Frederick Oladeinde, speaking on Wednesday at the 2020 ministerial press briefing at the JJT Park, Alausa, Ikeja, he said: “Following the restriction of motorcycles and tricycles for commuter operations in some areas in the metropolis, the government is working on implementing a First Mile and Last Mile (FMLM) mobility solution.”
He explained that Okada and tricycle are not part of the state’s transport architecture, adding that they are constituting nuisance on the roads and responsible for the high rate of accidents and crimes.
