The Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), has begged the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu to do everything possible to put an end to the menace of touts and hoodlums popularly called ‘agberos’ from the incessant harassment of truck drivers.
The Director-General of MAN, Segun Ajayi-Kadir, who made the plea on Friday during the Annual General Meeting of the Ikeja branch of the Association, said there was a need for a synergy between manufacturers and the government to foster economic prosperity in the state which is presently not feasible due to the activities of the touts.
Ajayi-Kadir also called for a payment rebate, a bi-annual consultative forum, one stop registration of vehicles particulars, beefed up security in the state, and harmonised regulation fee.
