Good evening Nl

I have or save upto 700k and am looking forward to used that money and move over to Lagos then start Tricycle (keke napep) Transportation business besides rent a house with part of the money. But where am confused is

*If lagos is a good place to ride keke napep
*if there is any possibility of saving money through keke transportation in lagos
*Lagos living standard
*If 700k can get me a Keke napep and also a house to rent in lagos.

As for my age am 24yrs
Please is this a wise decision am about to take?

Keke business in lagos is not rosy o! Union/Police/taskforce will collect up to 3500 per week. Health risk. Bad road will increase maintenance cost. If you can get a route with good road like Shasha to Underbridge, you can reduce maintenance cost.

But honestly, with 400 - 500k you can get a good car and do taxi or car hire business. Use part of the balance to get a room self-contain in ikorodo or Ayobo area (house cheap)

lol, get a car and go to other calm and cheap state. where they take life so easy with lowest traffic. Lagos is too difficult for transportation business.

Thank you for your advice bro.

But am talking of getting New keke napep which the money will reach and there will be some balance left and besides I will only ride it for 2yrs maximum.

Union/Police/taskforce taking 3500 weekly is not bad at all bro

And besides I don't know how to drive a Car

Lol.
14k monthly is not that bad to spend on unions for a Keke business? How much do you expect to go home with after buying fuel, daily maintenance, and your own feeding?
Iteems like you don't really need advice, just a validation of your own decision.
Personally I'll advise you to carefully consider that guy's opinion, or save more, at least 900k to 1million naira if you are to be able to rent a house and buy your Keke as well.

I don't need validation of my own decision bro.

And besides i don't know how to drive or go about taxi Transportation business.

may God bless ur hustle

It's a good move but like someone else said,why don't u look for other state with less spendings, most of what you make in Lagos will still be spent there,Kano is a good place for such a business if u can take the risk of migrating,though there z language barrier but u can still get over that with time.

PS: I am currently serving in Kano state and due to the cheap cost of living,I plan on starting the keke napep business here also

Just be careful sha, bro. It will not be a bad idea also if you can talk to some of these Keke drivers themselves. You know, experience is always a good teacher.

wow

I will check the state sha

Carry out your feasibility study well bro. Lagos is not as rosy as many portray online.

Before thinking of buying you need to weigh the cost of living of lagos although i dont know how it is over there.(u said spending 3,500 weekly is not an issue bros it is....seems ur tinking is one way.
Simple advice to u sir sit down think all round first. Car wud have been better(wish u goodluck cos na nice move).

I will need to confirm the 3,500, might be more. I will suggest you ask your contact in Lagos to help you with a keke rider's number, you will get first hand information.

Bro napep is a good business in Lagos if you know your way.. And have it in mind that you are in Lagos to hustle don't get carried away ..I can say napep drivers do make more than 10k daily in Lagos especially when you play a free role lol I.e you don't have to queue for turn you go and come as you wish sorting the right people..and you should know the right time to hustle not just wasting fuel when most passengers are at work..God bless your hustle
