Why Don’t Taxi Drivers Take Care Of Their Cars? by LucemFerre: 5:05pm On Aug 09, 2021
It baffles me when I see “every” Taxi looking dirty af, dented from front to back, panel beating looking like it was done by minions… just generally looking unkept.
Why don’t they clean it and make it look neat and tidy?

The chicken change you pay them isn't enough to take care of their vehicle.

I feel NURTW should organize them from the ground level up and regulate their prizes to enable them to keep up with standard services

Moreover, the nature of our road is one major reason for the substandard taxi we have.. When the vehicle keep breaking down, they will have no choice than to keep managing it.

The main reason is that there are more than one driver to each taxi you see, if a driver now decided to use his allotted time to care for the car that means he won't be making enough money for himself that day, so everybody is out to maximize their time

Come to Ibadan and see Nissan Micra Taxis, and their drivers. Their own is the worst, rickety cars, no order, reckless, rude and looking for a private car to hit, as long as it starts, they are good to go. Terrible condition, no standard at all, at this day and age such cars as a Taxis, shouldn't be seen on the roads, Omo our redemption in this country is not in sight.
