Majority of the population agree that okada are a menace we can do without. However, the way this mandate affects us differs from person to person.
Which one of these categories is your table?
1. The Thrilled Bus Drivers

Truth be told, bike men too were doing the most–popping out unexpectedly and causing accidents all the time.
Bus drivers are also winning in terms of cash, they get to inflate fares as they wish since the footwagen brethren no longer have the bike option.
2. The Footwagen Brethren
These WhatsApp group are probably the ones feeling the burn the most because they literally have to trek the distances that buses cannot reach.
It is well.
3. The Over Zealous Government Task Force
