Some major roads and streets in Abuja seems very free this morning as most of them are without the usual hustle and bustle of Keke and Okada riders.

Upon the resumption of work today after yesterday's public holiday, many workers were left stranded along some major areas like Wuye, Finance etc because they were not able to get tricycles to take them into their streets.

The National President of Tricycle Owners Association, Austin Apeh, and Chairman, Welfare Enforce Enforcement in FCT, Thomas Danjuma, told journalists in Abuja on Monday during the protest that they would also ask the Court to determine whether the FCTA had the legislation from the National Assembly before the clampdown.

“Politically, they are betraying our trust because the present administration approached us for assistance during the 2019 general elections and we did our best to bring them to power. It is unfortunate that the people we brought to the office have turned against us. A tricycle costs N680,000 and if you multiply it by 40,000, you will know the investments that will be wasted.
