. Na generator oh bro........na small small I go upgrade enter solar ..
Solar is not good for charging biz coz you can't use it to charge powerbank and some stuff like like dat.
It's also phone selective

bro,it's all about determination and focus... and most importantly,put God first and believe in him......

And don't play with your savings,and you must not overlook that...cuz it's when the Keke is new,that's when you'll be enjoying it but once it's getting old,na steady problem......

Anyways,I wish you well and success in the hustle my brother.....

Fuel it depends on the distance, per day 8k to 20k
Gas is 3500 will fill the cylinder .
Cost of maintenance depends on the tricycle,..pls do not buy old Keke if you don't have any experience.

Good day my fellow Nairalanders......Happy new week and I hope y'all are having a great day? grin.......

Well, lemme start this thread by thanking every Nairalander out there who stood by me and believed in my hustle right from the beginning cheesy. Mehnn, It was indeed full of memories upon memories but I think it won't be a nice idea to finally hang my boots out of the Keke hustle without telling you guys how it has been all these years...

Honestly, there were good days, as well as bad days and there were equally days I wished I didn't start it all, but all thanks to y'all for your words of encouragement cheesy.........

3 years+ it has been since I got my first Keke via a higher purchase.....Glory be to God almighty that I was able to pay back every dime which was attached to it and it actually became mine...... unfortunately, last year, I sold it off due to numerous engine problems angry. And the sad part was when I got into series of troubles after going for another one angry. From police cases to other problems but thank God I was able to scale through all of them at last....

Fast forward to early this year, God did blessed me and I was lucky enough to buy another one, but this time around a second hand keke.......Besides that, I was able to start up a side hustle....

But now, I think I'm indeed fed up with the transportation life angry. Fed up with the lots of fights from agberos......And I'm so fed up engaging with different task force parading themselves as government officials....And also fed up with passengers who find pleasure in hawking their anger issues, looking for who to channel their frustrations in life on angry....infact, I've sold the Keke and I just want to put all my resources and effort into my business......

So , I just want y'all to stop seeing me as the Nairaland resident Keke rider as from henceforth cuz God has uplifted me above that cheesy .......

Mods. Please you guys should help me push this thread of mine to the promised land so that every Nairalander who insulted me in the past should know how their insults and disbelief pushed me into becoming who I'm becoming today angry .....
Hearty congratulations mate... I'd hope to quit someday soon. The wahala associated with riding keke in this Delta is just too much....
If keke wahala start man go catch winch... I don become self mechanic to my keke... Can't continue to work for spare parts sellers n mechanic.... Agbero n useless task force wahala dey corner....

Only today at Robert road Warri, i had an encounter with a task force tagged Keke monitoring team... They said i ought to have inscribe the code num twice on d body of the keke... No be small argument, till i identified two members of the team and they stood their ground saying they must free me... That was how i got freed....

Congrats to you again. This business you're doing is what i have in mind to do too... Paid charge and gas refill... Well ma still dey gather osusu... Though e no easy for young married man ooo...

You no go let that your naija husband rest. The guy na real hustler. I have been following him on his business experiences. It is good.
I will soon come up with my side hustle here. I'm into farming. I will create a thread on it.
My challenge is goats that are attacking my farm.
Re: My Journey As a Keke Rider Has finally Come To An End... by Samantha125(f): 2:09pm On Aug 06, 2025
Oh! So you're a crop farmer? That's nice... Build a fence to prevent the those thieves from having access to your farm.

I did with bamboo but somehow dey still find a way to break through it. The problem is I work in another state different from where I farm. Monitoring is a challenge
Re: My Journey As a Keke Rider Has finally Come To An End... by Samantha125(f): 2:43pm On Aug 06, 2025
Wire fencing is always the best... And don't you have family members who can help monitor the farm?

I have. The person even have a shop close to the place. When I ask I'm told it was done but in the end I still come back and see my farm overrun by goats. Sincerely I lost all the maize I planted this year.

I would have done wire fencing but the land doesn't belong to me. It is a leased land
Re: My Journey As a Keke Rider Has finally Come To An End... by Samantha125(f): 6:46am On Aug 07, 2025
I'd advice that you get your own land because one day the owner of that land might see you prosperity and get envious.

Owning your own land will also give you peace of mind and assurance, you can then hire someone to overlook the farm while you're working in another state because it's like your family member is not trustworthy.
