Nigeria’s roads have long been dominated by aging imported petrol and diesel vehicles. That picture is beginning to shift. Rising fuel prices after the 2023 petrol subsidy removal, ambitious climate targets, and a wave of local assembly and innovative business models are pushing electric vehicles (EVs) from niche curiosity toward a meaningful force in the country’s transport sector.

How do you sustain this in a country that generates less electricity than the city of New York which has a population of 10 million?

That's easier said than done.

You need a good Infrastructure in Place to make it work - I mean a good, working Infrastructure with a Complete Supply Chain System that would support that Infrastructure.

Even here in China which is the best in this Area, the Electric (Smart) Vehicle Industry is continually (daily/weekly) working on Ways to improve the System.

Very well spoken. The key to achieving Sustainable Development starts with proper planning ,express execution, and strong Legislations. Nigeria plans nothing!

The country has never sat down to properly plan or lay down any Blueprint for development in any industry whatsoever.

What Nigeria is good at, is copying what others are doing - not mind whether what they are trying to copy is adaptable or sustainable for Nigeria.

A country that puts square pegs in round holes and round pegs inside square holes then pray to God Almighty the creator and all powerful to switch the square pegs into square holes and round pegs Into round holes.

This is the exact summary of what Nigeria sadly really is today.
