The Oyo State Government has reportedly reached a compromise with the representatives of Hausa community to relocate okada riders encroaching the Scout Camp Neighborhood Business Complex in Ibadan in a bid to ensure peaceful cohabitation among all tribes in the state.
It was noted during the flag-off ceremony of Oja Agbe recently that more than 50 commercial okada riders were encroaching the complex at night thereby raising concerns on security of lives and properties of traders in the market.
The Commissioner for Trade, Industry, Investment and Cooperatives, Mr Adeniyi Adebisi, presided over an emergency meeting with representatives of head of the Hausa community in Ibadan, to discuss the way forward on the security issue in the area.
