This study investigated effects of socio -economic survival of Okada riders in Abeokuta and Odeda Local Government Areas of Ogun State, Nigeria on African cultural values. The study was carried out using the questionnaire method to elicit vital information from one hundred respondents who were randomly-selected from ten Okada parks within Abeokuta metropolis and Odeda township respectively. Simple percentage and t-test statistical tools were used to analyse the data. The findings showed that Okada riding, though a lucrative enterprise has its direct and indirect bearing on the cultural values of the society. The recklessness that is associated with the business tends to erode certain cultural and moral values including respect for other road users, respect for authority and elders within the immediate environment. Majority of the riders engaged in the business because of the pressing need to survive and sustain their families.
