The Leader Is A Fighter! A Case Study Of Olalekan Bakare Oki, General Manager, Lagos State Management Authority LASTMA



Bakare Oki in Nigeria's traffic management authority especially in Lagos State. He exemplifies rare commitment knowledge and exceptional skill with a diverse education background.


My courtesy visit to his reputable office on Friday 13th September 2024, we discussed at length and this got my memory back to this old saying that "a thousand wishes won't fill a bucket with fishes"


Now get a seat and read little that I learnt from this proactive rare man. From our discussion that lasted almost one hour, I gathered he's a man that will never give up easily because he understood himself, he always believe that all things will work out for him as long as he hangs on to the end, real reason he remains a courageous man, and undismayed even in the face of odds, he's a man that will never permit anyone to intimidate or deter him from achieving his set goals. 

I observed from our gist, whenever this gentleman is at the war fronts and facing indiscipline during horrible traffic management within Lagos metropolis he's always determined never to surrender to discouragement or despair no matter what seeming obstacles may confront him and his team.


Bakare Oki is an exceptional leadership who has faced criticism, fatigue and instead of him to be loneliness, he would rather chose to identifying with people making unpleasant decisions, false pride and jealousy I see all these to makes him trailblazing in all ramifications. Oki's qualities and personal behaviors has obtain deficiencies and skills such as a pleasant personality, his neat appearance, his mining smile and a warm handshake are second to none.


Bakare a trailblazer and why he would continue to remain stackability is because he doesn't permit or allow the fear of ridicule from others or the fear of defeat to overwhelmed him  even as others may consider themselves presumptuous.

In conclusion and my take home from this energetic resourceful dude is what I tagged "He's a giver, and not a getter" above all an integrity man that would deliver his duty diligently without obtaining 'bribe'.

Guess what? Even in my presence a pretty young woman fair in complexion brought a critical, deadly case before him lo and behold, Oki took a wonderful, brilliant decision to clarified the issue by boiling the issue down to it's simplest form. I therefore concluded with him as most wise and knowledgeable leader have ever met.
