The Minister of Transport, Hon. Joseph Bukari Nikpe, led a high-level delegation on a strategic study tour to Rwanda, with a focus on gaining insights into the successful regulation and integration of motorcycles, popularly known as ‘Okada,’ for passenger transport.
 

The study tour would play a significant role in shaping Ghana's transport policy, particularly in the regulation of commercial motorcycles and tricycles, with emphasis on safety, efficiency, and economic sustainability.

A key part of the delegation's mission was to understand the legal framework behind Rwanda's successful implementation of ‘Okada’ operations. By drawing lessons from Rwanda’s experience, the delegation aimed to develop a regulatory framework that would enhance road safety, support economic empowerment, and promote environmental sustainability in Ghana.

The findings of the delegation would also contribute to creating an effective regulatory environment for Okada in Ghana, ensuring the successful and sustainable implementation of this transport mode.
