Keke-marwa: The Latest Menace To The Society by autojosh: 12:50pm On Nov 30, 2018 |
In Lagos, Keke Marwa became very prevalent on roads after the ban on Okada activities in Lagos state. They were considered a blessing – especially to those who plied routes that Okadas were prohibited from plying. Sadly, Keke Marwa has become a terror on wheels on our roads. Over time, Keke Marwa has degenerated into a terrible nightmare for road users in Lagos. They have become prime sources of trauma to commuters and other motorists. These terror on the road have become notorious for reckless over-speeding, disobeying traffic rules and meandering through every available space between vehicles on snarled- up traffic situations, leaving paint marks on other vehicles, etc. Clearly, Keke Marwa poses a great danger to the lives of those boarding it. Some are wont to call for its outright ban. However, another school of thought believes a ban on Keke Marwa would lead Lagos state lead to a great traffic fiasco. Indeed, Lagos state, with an incredible reputation for traffic gridlocks, is in a dilemma. What do you think should be done to check the excesses of the Keke Marwa menace?

Just like Micra drivers in Ibadan. The problem is with the drivers trying dangerously to meet up a daily target, as most are acquired through hire purchase from a microfinance with interest rates as High as 25% and late payment penalties. Failure to meet up payments usually means forfeiture of the tricycle and previous payments, State governments really need to step up their games on Mass transport systems, like metro buses and tramcars 60 Likes 3 Shares |

Nigerians are very ungrateful. They keep shouting development but not ready to embrace it. India has more than 100million keke in their country, and their economy is booming. Why can't we emulate the increase in keke so that our economy will also grow?. God bless Buba Marwa for introducing this great economic achievement. I will sign an Executive order to make the importation of keke duty-free, so that i can create more jobs for graduates like i promised in 2015. ~ProsidentBuhari 22 Likes |

A safer alternative to Okada in my view. And in areas I'm familiar with, they don't compete for main lanes of the road with cars, they only manouvre through the side spaces that would have hardly been useful to cars anyway. I don't see them as menace. 47 Likes 2 Shares |

Expect more Keke on our roads seems it is the last hope of Buhari's impoverished citizens. Jubril Al-Sudani is a disaster. 1 Like |

Thanks for this piece. Honestly, kèké drivers are something on our roads nowadays. I think their operation seriously needs to be well regulated. And if not possible, they should be banned! 1 Like |

There is no fender or bumber in Lagos state without Marwa marks. We are kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. Whenever I am driving i hate coming across them, especially in traffic. But i can never forget the night i hired one to take me from Abule Egba to Ikeja at night. Dude made the journey through the crazy traffic in a few minutes. I am sure cars stuck in that traffic will take at least 2hrs for the same journey. Perhaps a ban on major roads? 7 Likes |

I hate keke marwa. I even feel okada is safer. They never use their side mirrors. Even where their side mirrors are located can't make them see. They ride as their spirits lead which is so dangerous. Only God saves people in this country. No sensible regulations. 3 Likes |

Here in Anambra state, the use of Keke over motorcycles has been a blessing that is still celebrated till today. Before the ban of motorcycles in Anambra state, the rate of accidents and crime was so high as to be happening almost everyday but now it is no longer so. 6 Likes |
