Former President and flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress, John Mahama has said he will legalise Okada business (commercial motorbike transport services) should he win the 7th December, 2020 polls.
He disclosed this to the people of Kpando in the volta region on Friday, 21 August, 2020
“I’ve been seeing young people who have finished school and they can’t find a job and, so, they are looking for something they can do and many of our young people are riding motorcycles and transporting people from place to place, and we call them Okada”.
“But in our law, it says Okada is illegal but Okada is a reality, it has come to stay, you can’t stop it, and, so, I’ve suggested and I say when we come into office, we will legalise Okada but we will regulate it”.
“We will regulate it and we will give them training so that they can do their business safely without causing the lives of people, they must obey all the traffic regulations in order that they be allowed to pursue their profession”.
