In a bid to enhance security and streamline motorcycle operations within the local government, the Executive Chairman of Bokkos Local Government Council, Hon. Amalau Samuel Amalau, alongside his Deputy, Hon. Wallangko Mahwel Joseph, has officially commissioned motorcycle rider uniforms and identification stickers.

The, initiative which was launched today, was met with high praise from motorcycle riders across Bokkos Local Government Area. The program aims to enhance security, regulate motorcycle activities, and prevent criminal elements from infiltrating the community.

Hon. Amalau welcomed a broad security team, including representatives from the NSCDC, STF, DSS, FBI, RST, Immigration, NPA, and other security agencies. Also in attendance were key traditional leaders, including the District Head, Monday Adanchin, alongside various community stakeholders.

In his opening remarks, the chairman emphasized the importance of security awareness and urged the community to remain vigilant. He highlighted the registration of motorcycles and proper rider identification as a strategic measure to curb crime, especially as motorcycles are often used in kidnapping, robbery, and other criminal activities.

Hon. Amalau called for community-wide cooperation in sharing intelligence with law enforcement agencies, ensuring that facts prevail over false accusations. He reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to eradicating violence, motorcycle theft, and insecurity in Bokkos.


The President of the Motorcycle Riders Association, Alhaji Bashiru Mustapha Bala, commended the chairman for recognizing the significant role of motorcycle riders in the local economy. He pointed out that 90% of riders are youths and graduates who contribute meaningfully to society but are often overlooked in governance. He pledged full cooperation with law enforcement to ensure a safer and more structured motorcycle operation system.

A Road Safety representative acknowledged that criminals frequently exploit motorcycles to commit crimes and stressed that the new registration system would improve tracking and accountability. Plans are already in place to replace old motorcycle numbers with newly issued ones.


The STF Commander, Hassan, expressed gratitude to the chairman for his swift response to security concerns, including providing fuel for security vehicles to enhance their operations. He cautioned against registering criminals under any political or personal influence, emphasizing strict adherence to due process.

The NSCDC representative urged all stakeholders to enforce implementation effectively and ensure that only registered riders are allowed to operate. He recommended widespread awareness campaigns in local markets to inform the public of the penalties for fraudulent registrations.


The SIB representative highlighted the importance of clear communication between riders and security agencies, urging all motorcycle riders to always carry valid identification for verification.


The District Head of Bokkos, Monday Adanchin, commended the chairman for his decisive action in promoting peace and security. He prayed for continued wisdom and guidance for the chairman as he leads the community toward greater safety and development.

At the conclusion of the event, Hon. Amalau officially commissioned the distribution of uniforms and stickers to registered riders. He also announced plans to establish a new office for the Motorcycle Riders Association and the appointment of new leadership to oversee the initiative’s implementation.

The color-coded sticker system is as follows:

* Blue Stickers – For private motorcycles
* Red Stickers – For commercial motorcycles

In his final remarks, Hon. Amalau declared:
"In the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, I decree and declare, Amen."
