Keke Drivers Protest In Umuahia Against High Extortion (Photos) by Udmaster(m): 12:57pm On Jun 13, 2018
An angry group of Tricycle riders (keke napep) today protest against the high level of financial extortion by the task force set up by Abia state government,
The protest was held in Umuahia, the Abia state capital!
According to the drivers, they are tired of paying #1000 as daily dues every day and then being asked to pay 5000 monthly as infrastructural development fee.
Many of those who couldn't meet up with these dues had their tricycle seized by the task force

Government extorting the masses since 1960 undecided

Abia wey no even get good roads undecided

These tricycle riders will still pay multiple tax, maintenance, feeding, accomodations, fees, miscellaneous

Then tomorrow, one wonders why there is increase in crime undecided

Abia is just so so unlucky with ideal governors since inception

Hmmmm
Can someone please recommend a tricycle management that regulates hire purchase, I want to buy a brand new tricycle that I will put up for hire purchase but need a body/management that will be in charge of it.
I don't have strength for stories between me n the person riding it hence management would be better for me. If you have any do holla at me pls...

The management must be in Abuja. Thank you!

When will Abia get it right. These extortion from task force is not inclusive of that of the police. How do they want these guys to meet up with the weekly payment they are supposed to make towards acquiring the keke as per higher purchase. Not to talk of feeding their families.

It's so pathetic and worrisome that some sets of people in collaboration with the government will be exhorting their fellow men. They pay from their nose to even get their keke painted in the government accredited colour. Abia state Ehnnnnn.
