Kano Almost At Standstill As People Trek Around While Keke Drivers Are On Strike by xoftxoul: 9:47am On Jan 10, 2022
Businesses are disrupted this morning as inhabitants of Kano woke up to striking Keke drivers.

People can be seen trekking from one point to the other. The streets which are usually busy and filled with yellow colored keke are completely free of them this morning. In fact, the sight of the empty streets made Kano to appear like a local city.

The reason for the strike is the high and numerous fees they have to pay in order to ply the roads within the city in Kano.

Every nook and cranny is filled with agents collecting fees and other form of charges that the Keke drivers see as too much and too demanding. Also embedded in the strike is a message to the high handed treatment of the Keke drivers by the karota (the equivalent of Lagos's LASTMA).

I took a stroll to one of the major roads in Sabon Gari Kano, court road to take a picture. This is so unlike Kano... This road on a normal day is very very busy but alas! See how empty it is and you can see people trekking to work/business.

Hopefully this issue gets resolved/addressed quickly.

It's just sand covering half of the road. You can tell they don't even sweep the road...

When it comes to environment, I will give Naija 2/10.

I'm not even bothered about the strike here or the trekking, just look at the environment, this is not about north or south or any state but how wicked our politicians are...

Eweeeeeey!

The city of Kano is dear to my heart because I visited my distant family members some time in 2016.. Omoo the journey far I no go lie you, spent close to 6 hours in Kaduna alone! The whole journey from Kogi to Kano was close to 11 hours or thereabout..

I loved the organized view of the city even tho it's predominantly Hausa.

I fell in love with Badawa New Layout and Fadawa...

I think the dustiness of the city is a trademark, it's not exactly dirt, it's just how the earth is on that side of the country.

Let me handle your writing and design jobs, see my signature below, thanks
