The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, has urged the Lagos State Government to impose a ban on commercial motorcycle operations across the state, citing growing security concerns.
Speaking in a video shared on social media, the cleric warned that criminal elements and suspected terrorists could exploit motorcycles, popularly known as Okada, to carry out unlawful activities in Lagos.
Ayodele called on authorities to strengthen security measures by cracking down on commercial motorcycle operators involved in criminal acts, while also increasing surveillance of individuals and groups he believes could pose security threats.
He further cautioned that insecurity remains a growing concern and urged the government to take proactive steps to prevent potential attacks that could destabilize Lagos and surrounding areas.
The cleric also appealed to security agencies and government officials to intensify efforts aimed at maintaining public safety, stressing that preventive action is necessary to safeguard lives and property.
According to him, swift intervention and stricter monitoring of vulnerable areas would help reduce security risks and preserve stability in the state.
