Taking to his Facebook page after the filing, the MP said: “I am grateful for the profound solidarity exhibited by ‘Okada’ riders who led me on an exciting procession through the streets of Mepe, Battor and Aveyime ahead of the formal filing process. Undoubtedly a clear demonstration that former President John Mahama’s pledge to legalise and regulate the ‘Okada’ business is practical, popular and possible. The NDC’s People’s Manifesto continues to galvanise many sections of society.”
