RE: AMORAN, DEFRAUDS OGUN STATE GOVERNMENT

The attention of Ogun State AMORAN has been drawn to a vilifying publication making rounds the media where Ogun State Articulated Motorcycle Owners Association of Nigeria led by Otunba Nurudeen Aina were accused of corruption, misappropriation of funds and printing of fake tickets.

Ordinarily, the Leadership of AMORAN won't respond to accusations of this magnitude as such statement emanates from haters, enemies of progress and devil's incarnates who are out to cause discord and to ruin the good relationship that exists between Ogun State government and AMORAN.

To set the records straight, the leadership of AMORAN led by Otunba Aina, Otunba Sokoya and others will never indulge in activities that will bring distrust to their individual names built over the years, hence the need to set the records straight and to avoid a faceless group of haters from misleading the general public.

Furthermore, on 25th July, 2020, the leadership of AMORAN investigated a case of a member of State Executives who was found culpable in a disgraceful act of printing inferior tickets. Indeed he was caught in the act and immediately handed over to the Police for further interrogation, investigation and litigation process.  "We are amazed to read a faceless person(s) feeding the public with unfounded rumours, Alowonle stated"

Obey traffic rules and avoid reckless driving, AMORAN urges Okada riders in Ogun

  The Articulate Motorcycle Owners and Riders Association of Nigeria (AMORAN) in Ogun State has implored the commercial motorcycle riders otherwise known as 'Okada Riders' to inculcate the habit of obeying traffic rules and avoid reckless driving to save lives. 

 Otunba Nurudeen Aina Alowonle, the State Chairman of the Union, gave this advice in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on Sunday, 19th of July, 2020. 

 'Members of our union and okada riders in general should always observe traffic rules and regulations and avoid reckless driving, over speeding and wrongful overtaking to avoid unnecessary accidents. 

  In as much as we all agree that human life has no duplicate, one should try as much as possible to protect the one he/she has.  The manner in which some okada riders over speed and overtake wrongfully is alarming and worrisome, thereby causing accidents leading to loss of lives. This is abnormal. The traffic laws should also be obeyed.  In the quest to make more money and meet a certain daily target, many of the Okada riders are always in a hurry. 

  They mindlessly disobey the traffic rules in order to reach their destination within the shortest period of time. This is not too good', Alowonle said. 

 The Chairman further said that the union is committed to acquainting its members on the imperative of traffic regulations to achieve safety.  He also warned riders to keep of expressways, describing it as a dangerous route for them. 

 

 'Like our amiable Governor said some days ago, Okada riders are to move passengers from interior parts of a town to the major roads. However, some of them put their own lives at risk by moving to expressways. This is very risky and many lives has been lost. It is suicidal to the rider and passenger. In the course of struggling to earn a means of livelihood, may we not meet untimely death.  Let's take precautions', he stated.
