Sequel to the ban placed on motorcycles a.k.a Okada and tricycles in Lagos state, several Lagos commuters have been rendered stranded with many reporting late to work due to the insufficiency of buses to cater to their transportation needs.
Nigerians known for their ability to create jokes out of impossible situations have taken to Twitter to trend Otrek meaning commuters should make use of their legs to get to their desired destinations.

Let’s make friends (new&old) as we make use of the #Otrek app. Walk in groups and gist, you wouldn’t even realise the distance you have walked.
