Governor Mbah launches the 042 RIDE Taxi Youth Empowerment Scheme. The programme is open to young persons resident in Enugu, who have a valid driver’s licence and are interested in building a transport business.

Governor Mbah is extending public transport services beyond 9 pm while also making mobility safer, more reliable, and more convenient for all.
Tomorrow is here

Only Lagos and Abuja all these car business can thrive

Only people with this your kind of mindset make our failed politicians thrive

Is that a replacement for Mbah’s failure to employ the youths to make government services and public utilities available for everyone

Never say never.
Good plan. Good play.
Let's see how it goes.

Weldone to the governor.

They used Korope because this alternative was not available. Now that it is, people will use it

People prefer mini bus than car in Nigeria towns transportation

Talk and do governor, not T-pain and Yarimo wey no get sense 😒

This man sef dey Bleep up. Give government backed loan to private sector operators to run this business. You can't sustain it. Other administration before you tried it and failed, even other states too have tried it without commensurate success. Learn from others na, this kind man sef

In other countries, their government sponsors them too in taxi ride. Now to them they have provided jobs for the youths

Funny government and it's citizens.

Come and drive your future away right now in Enugu, your tomorrow is here already...... 😂😂😂

Government know what to do... They just refuse to do it

My brother the guy didn't lie

In Enugu fine boys and girl prefer keke drop rather than a taxi and in Owerri just leave them with their shuttle buses

I don't know about PH, haven't lived there

Out of all the cities you mentioned only Port Harcourt is viable for this type of business

How many people in the town can afford to use these taxis

is it civil servants or market women..

Poverty alleviation programs should be on the top burner not asthetics

where are all the Sullivan rides

ohosi4real:

That's because they are cheaper

MarkNsukkaBread:

You are right

The government should bring in investors, Enugu is ready for serious investments, not this

Another headache for the haters to hate own... Bad Belle is allowed
Mba just dey add more pain to the pain of his haters.
He just dey pour pepper inside their eyes anyhow.

Haters over to you
What sayeth thou......

The problem with Nigeria is policy summersault, The current federal government is sharing 5k to imaginary poor households.. billions down the drain.

He mean 78cng cars for the whole state
Why can't they patronize innocin made in Nigeria cars

These cars will pack up very soon.

It happened before when innocent cleared all it old stock that refuses to sell. They were all on higher purchases for taxi.

Within few months you can't find anyone on the street anymore.

Not even the few that some people buy for private.

which current fg is sharing 5k per household? The person above made a valid comparison with sure p that was supposedly private sector backed that collapsed before even GEJ left office.

Why is the State involved in taxi service? ... that's for the private sector. This empowerment has gone too far ... everything is now empowerment. How about getting the banks to make loans available to the youths so they can finance whatever project they want to? As it is... the youth who wants to rear chickens ... to clear land and plant crops.... to modernize and expand his sandal making business ... etc ... none of these has an opportunity.... just the ones interested in taxi business... the business that will undermine the double decker public transportation business he just said he launched. This taxi business will also be competing with the already established private transport business.... how can it ever succeed? Will people use it? No doubt. Will enough people be using it to sustain the business? ... that's a no.

Please my advice to nigeria and nigerians
Please avoid hungry politicians
Please they can do do or die politics

It seems you've never visited many "cities" in Nigeria.

Mbah is a good administrator i think he can manage it but can't vouch for who he will be handing over to.

I don't know who advised governor mba in this thing. He should have used minibus. I don't even fancy taxi any longer unless I'm the only passenger or we are like two passengers

But this ac fitted taxis looks more attractive? With time they might start getting used to it.
