At first, i thought to myself, " This is creative, Kudos to the guys" but I don' t think it' s safe, the normal bike that carries two people sometimes find it hard to control, not to talk of 8- seater. Is this a bike or just 1001 ways to die. Yes I agree this is a show of talent but why do some people uses their talent to create death trap for people?
Pictures of a strange bike was reportedly seen in Lagos Nigeria. Instablog9ja made the post showing extremely long Okada which is designed to contain at least 6 persons at once. According to the look of things, the mechanics must have defiled the original nature of the bike, added more seats and design it to look more comfortable.
In the picture, I noticed a thing that suggest the works behind this magnificent bike is not completed is that the front tire of the bike has lessen, that' s because many people were sitting on it.
This isn' t right, it doesn' t look safe because the okoda rider won' t be comfortable riding the motorcycle and the seaters are congested. Driving such a motorcycle on major roads is highly risky. The rider would be unable to control the neck of the motorcycle due to the uneven distribution of weight which would cause great deficiency in balance.
I totally agree that " if we fear not to fall, we will never stand on our feet to walk. Positive inventions should be welcomed and not denigrated. People who condemned it ought to have commended the brain behind that invention before bringing out its anomalies. There is nothing wrong with the bike, but what will happen to eight persons who comes from the same family if this bike mistakenly crash with heavy duty trailer?
The pictures stirs Twitter with many people dropping comments and reacting to the issue. Below are some comments on the post;
Do you think this made in Nigeria bike should be used to replace keke and maruwa.
