 Alia’s car gift to Benue judiciary in order – Attorney General The Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice and Public Order of Benue State, Hon. Barr. Fidelis Mnyim has said the car gift to the judiciary by Governor Hyacinth Alia is a symbol of support and commitment as promised when he assumed office. Barr Mnyim was reacting to a query posed by Prof. Ernest Ojukwu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, in a tweet on Monday, 7th May 2024, challenging the viability of the autonomy granted to Benue State Judiciary if the State governor was still buying cars for them. MAGIC FM recalls that Governor Alia donated six (SUV) vehicles recently to the judiciary. The Professor had wondered why Governor Alia of Benue State should procure vehicles for the state’s judiciary when the funds allocated to the judiciary could be utilized for that purpose. The Attorney General of the State said that the procurement of vehicles for the judiciary constituted an additional benevolent gesture by the Governor.

The Lagos State Government has inaugurated an anti-Okada squad to enforce the ban on commercial motorcycles in six Local Governments and nine Local Council Development Areas. The team will join the Police to maintain the ban in line with the Transport Sector Reform Law (TSRL) 2018.

Speaking at the inauguration ceremony, the Commissioner for Transportation, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde, said the Special anti-Okada Squad will report to the Police and urged the citizenry to collaborate with the State Government to combat the Okada menace across the State.

The Commissioner, however, stressed that it is the responsibility of the public to report any nefarious activities of the squad to the Ministry of Transportation or through the help/complaint lines: 09038208154, 09034810153, 09033090826 and 09169655855, adding that such reports will help the government generate feedback to fine-tune strategies for the protection of lives and property.

Warning that individuals arrested (riders and passengers) will be made to face the full wrath of the law in accordance with the provision of Section 46, sub-section 1, 2 & 3 of the Transport Sector Reform Law (TSRL), 2018, Dr. Oladeinde reiterated that motorcycles impounded will be crushed in a public space.

The Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Transportation, Mr. Kamar Olowoshago, also urged the anti-Okada personnel to be diligent and honest in the discharge of their duties.

Also present at the inauguration was the Commissioner for Housing, Mr. Moruf Akinderu-Fatai, who later presented Completion of Training Certificates to the squad.
