The Abia State Government has activated a sweeping public safety and transit regulation policy following an executive order issued by Governor Alex Otti enforcing an absolute prohibition of commercial motorcycle operations, locally known as Okada, across the state's primary urban networks. The regulatory ban takes statutory effect across the metropolitan areas of Umuahia, Aba, and Ohafia.
The structural transport adjustment forms part of ongoing internal security optimizations designed to eliminate rapid getaway mechanisms utilized by criminal syndicates, improve urban traffic flows, and clear congestion loops. Information Commissioner Prince Okey Kanu confirmed that relevant law enforcement desks have been given strict mandates to arrest violators and confiscate non-compliant hardware.
The administration called for total cooperation from community leaders and transport unions during the transition phase. The Ministry of Transport has been instructed to synchronize alternative high-capacity minibus networks within the restricted zones immediately, ensuring that urban commuter connectivity indexes are preserved without compromising public security baselines.
