By Adeola Badru
Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has imposed a statewide night-time ban on commercial motorcycle operations in the state, barring okada riders from operating between 10:30 p.m. and 5:30 a.m. as part of a broader security crackdown aimed at curbing criminal activities and enhancing public safety.
The restriction formed a key component of Executive Order No. 002 of 2026, signed by the governor on Friday to strengthen security, enforce vehicle registration regulations and improve traffic management across the state.
