FG To Introduce Solar-Powered Keke And Motorcycles In 2019 by obafemee80(m): 6:20pm On Apr 20, 2019


The Minister of Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi,on Thursday, announced Federal Governments plans to introduce solar-powered tricycles and motorcycles into the Nigerian transport system in 2019.

He disclosed this at the swearing-in ceremony of newly elected executives of Amalgamated Commercial Tricycle & Motorcycle Owners, Repairs and Riders Association of Nigeria (ACOMORAN) in Abuja.

The minister, who was represented by Dr Anthonia Ekpa, Director, Road Transport and Mass Transit Administration of the Ministry, said the initiative would solve the fuel challenges faced by motorcycles and tricycles riders.

“What we have done is to ensure that we introduce into the Nigeria environment, solar-powered tricycles, we are going to introduce into the sector tricycles that will not need to use fuel and also electric tricycles.

“I want to use this opportunity to also say that we have put it in the 2018 budget to be implemented in 2019 because in the 2018 budget we have what we called green transportation, which under it we have the solar-powered tricycles.

“We also have in the 2018 budget what we called amphibious vehicles, which is going to be in form of a tricycles which can be used on water and on land for those of you in the riverine areas, we hope to purchase that in 2019.”

He, however, said that road transport remains the most critical and accessible to all Nigerians, urging the new ACOMORAN president to ensure that his members obey all traffic laws.

Nice Move? What Do You Think?

Is he sure?

Thinking about it, reduced dependence on petrol also reduces importation volume and subsidy.

Hmmmm........

Useless move.

Get existing Keke
Mount solar panel on the top.
Get one inverter of 0.9 KVA
Put one dry cell battery 100 mAH
Connect the following: kick starter, full lamp, sound system and rear lights.
Carry and Go angry

I think it's totally anti-developmental to continue using these disgusting tricycles in 2019. They ought to be phased out just the same way bikes have been phased out in many state capitals and Lagos is planning on bringing an end to the era of Danfo buses.

As usual, another move of retrogression by our government.

Way forwards, get power stable in the country, build trams instead.

Keke... 1724 AD method of transportation.

When is your model coming out? Talk is cheap. One person that I believe so much in is Rotimi Amaech, he helped kick out Mama Piss and her drunk husband, he delivered Kaduna-Abuja railway which the ineffectual buffoon started, he delivered Warri-Itakpe railway which was abandoned for about 35 years, he is few weeks away from delivering Lagos-Ibadan railway. Why wont I trust in then?

I thought they want to sell their fuel

Ekweremadu said, “Besides, in economic sense, we are an oil producing country. So, we should do everything possible to frustrate the sale of electric cars in Nigeria to enable us to sell our oil.”
