Good innovation.
To make it more cheaper.
Africa must start to produce lithium batteries n stop exporting our lithium only for us to buy the batteries at exorbitant prices..
We produce batteries and export to other parts of the world.
Plus the bike should also be manufactured locally not assembled locally...

U go just dy open mouth because u can talk, do u have the technology to process lithium,? Do u have the tech to produce lithium battery?

Why the bike Kom get fuel tank na? Abo na boot ni

Some Nigerians on Nairaland and useless like used condoms. This innovations has been existing in Nigeria for years before Kenya initiated their own. Why blame and insults Nigerian government anytime?

T

We don't want Okada in any form in this country again.

these people just dey play us....today gasoline might be expensive and we move to the so called electric okada...once they know that people are densely dependent on their product, then boom they will start increasing their shit....

my friend just spent some monies to convert his Gen to gas enabled....the Gbam!.....the stupid gas association said gas will increase next week... just stay for your lane and watch wella

BarrElChapo:
Corruption is a very very bad thing, I struggle to imagine the political bottlenecks this innovation would face in Nigeria.

We still have a very long way to catch up with our Eastern and Northern Brothers'.

... even in nigeria where do we have constant 24 hours everyday electricity to be charging the battery... what nigerian politicians know is to be sharing money among themselves and looting money

See how Kenya is more better and developed than nigeria... nigeria politicians is just to be looting money and sharing money among themselves

Even in nigeria where is the 24 hours constant electricity light to he charging the battery.... nigeria has s long way to go

Just like on the Mustapha Gajibo thread, I bet that there will be some people that don't know the meaning of solar powered

The end of the oyel era is at hand

Story.

Your government just took a $3b crude oil-backed loan from Afrexim.

This kind of innovation is only feasible in a country with steady power supply.

Solar power supply is highly inefficient during raining season.

Sweet innovation.

Solar power supply is highly inefficient during raining season.

But that's what both Mustapha Gajibo in Borno and this Kenyan programme are using. Mustapha Gajibo has been providing the service in Borno for years.

Do you know more than companies that are actually doing it??

Little developments like this are what gives a country edge over others.

Solar power supply is not readily available through out the year. In raining season, Solar panels output poor energy.

This kenyas always innovate too quickly...

Reapeating the same thing over and over will not change the fact that companies like Mustapha Gajibo's in Borno and Roam in Kenya are providing solar powered public transportation and both drivers and passengers prefer it.

They cannot completely rely on their solar system to meet high demand. I'm certain that they complement their energy need with the grid supply.
Solar panel designers are yet to create panel that perform better under the worst weather conditions.

This is a game changer!
Fuel consume the most money in Okada.
I hope somedays, the battery would be self recharging as it's being used or whenever the engine is not running.

This can also be found in Cotonou, Benin Republic.

Nigerians can carry an empty plastic ,and use it to swap real battery.

Kenya is even far...This Electric Okaka is everywhere in COTONOU,they have been using it here for long without the Government or anybody making noise about it.

I know ones it gets to naija it will start making news headlines from our corrupt government and politicians.
Too bad

dfrost:

Yeah, that's why Governor Dapo Abiodun went there to see how it's operating. An Indian company has started installing electric motors in motorcycles in Ogun State. Dapo Abiodun was invited to Benin Republic for their anniversary and the company invited him to check out their operation there.

Solar charging,

We will soon start drinking our oyel.
