Although Okada seems to be a very fast mode of transportation especially when you’re too tired to walk from your bus stop to your house, so also does it have it’s disadvantages – According to recent reports from Vanguard, a woman’s baby fell off her back while she was on an okada and before you would say ‘JACK’ a truck comes behind and crushed the little child:

As the newspaper puts it:
UGHELLI—A heavy duty truck, conveying crates of soft drinks, yesterday, at the Okorodafe Roundabout in Ughelli, Delta State, crushed a four-month-old baby girl, who had fallen off the back of her mother travelling on a commercial motorcycle, popularly known as Okada.
According to witnesses, the mother of the baby, who is in her 30s and simply identified as Ese, was said to have been struggling to adjust the wrapper with which she strapped the baby to her back, while the Okada was in motion.
One of the witnesses, identified as Efemena Okiemute, said that the baby fell on the middle of the road and was immediately crushed by the truck, which was directly behind the Okada.
So pathetic isn’t?
