Don't put yourself under unnecessary pressure make you no die before your time. The money is not enough. Keep saving up and buy the keke to generate daily income for the family in the long run.

I thought keke was a skill?
malcom1X:
Guy buy that Keke first. Tell her later.
Don't take her to work she will feel ashamed but use that Keke to run business.


My idea is this. Time waits for no man. That Keke is like you buying yourself time.

Use that Keke and make money

Make some money but the disadvantage is that you will become a Keke man fir a very long time 🤣
Once the money starts coming in you won't want to have any other job again.

Bro,lemme be honest with you, if you must buy a Keke,it shouldn't be a second-hand keke. I said what I said cuz with that 800k you have presently can only go for a second-hand keke which could mean the end of your many tears.

I wish you well. The good part of the idea of buying the Keke is that you can still use it for transport. You may say you wouldn't use if for the transport but na small small e go take enter your body.
You meant the beginning or the end? grin

Thanks for the advice. It makes sense.
E no make sense o.

Marraige of 4 months and you are already feeling so much heat and desperate like this. Smh.

When you use the N800k saved up to buy keke, what is now left to take care of you, your wife, baby, your parents? You are clearly not financially literate.

If you want to do Keke business, first go and learn the trade then start with hire purchase Keke. That N800K will be compounded over time in fixed income like TB and you will not be more miserable when you are later saddled with the serious financial demand of nursing a baby.

To nurse a baby is not cheap o and clearly you don't have the experience. Even her delivery will incur cost as well. Some incur bills as much as N1 million for delivery! So get your priorities right.

A baby is not an investment but liability o.

Plead with your wife to bear with you for now.
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by Emmabyte: 8:54pm On Sep 25
Op if you are buying the Keke only because of taking your wife to work then is wrong don't do it because even the amount you have at hand now can't get you something clean unless you want to also use the Keke for work.

Sit your wife down and talk to her keep talking to her until she understands that she needs to be strong

Then fix the money you have at hand and save more from your work until maybe next year before thinking of being mobile

Greetings to you all.


I got married early this year, it’s been 4 months in and I am in a dilemma. My wife is pregnant and she keeps complaining of using public transport to and fro work.

I am the kind of man that always want to solve my problems ASAP.

I am thinking of buying a car, but I don’t have enough cash to buy something decent. I have been thinking of buying Keke, not for private business but to be mobile at list. I haven’t discussed the Keke idea with my wife sha.

The plan is to be able to take her to work and pick her after work. What are your thoughts please.

I have 800k saved up. Just so you know.
Hello, Why cant you emulate Rich men, Dangote is yet to conclude his fund raising to enlarge his business. Go and decide which car you want and know the price. Then you too set up IPO for we people to contribute for your dream car. Think normal now grin

The wife is pregnant, how are we sure that the baby stuff, hospital stuff, medical bills, naming ceremony won't chop that money if he doesn't decide soon?
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by professore(m): 8:58pm On Sep 25
Don't mind people here.

Discuss about buying the keke with her.

You no go reach her office domot, you go drop her at a working distance and if you go reach her office domot pretend like say no be you be the man wey get the belle wey dey inside that woman.

The important thing to worry about here is your (the couple and the baby) SAFETY while inside the keke.

Life na by wisdom.

See am! Dem don start. Why your wife dey over stress you na? She no know say she go get belle after she marry and she go still need to enter bus go work?

Make she behave. If you buy keke, she go still shame and she no go enter am. If you buy old moto, na d same thing.

Guy, ignore am and stick to your plan. No change am. Ignore that woman.

Infact dis na sign say she be bad wife
The wife is just stressing the man.
She can as well add to the 800k so that they can get a car.
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by galantjoe(m): 9:01pm On Sep 25
Over pampering of wife at early stage of marriage is not good. Because whenever you stop, there will be an irreconcilable problem

Walking is a part of exercise pregnant woman must do in order to have safe delivery
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by TemporaryHansel(m):
When some of us say if you're not financially secure 100% don't enter marriage or raise kids, it looks like we are end timers or irresponsible.

Car is a necessity for a family, how can you be trekking with your wife and kids.

Mehn, personally, I can't do it oh. I rather not marry, than marry when I know some things are not already in place. I'm big on comfort. Quality over quantity.
No need to rush anything in life.
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by Pocohantas1: 9:12pm On Sep 25
You have 800k and how much do you think is Keke as at today 1.5 million? Dey play 😁😁😁

Keke is not less than 3 million Naira as today if not up to 4 million.

Also, even if you have the money, don't buy Keke because in many states Keke are banned from entering my streets and roads. In a state like Rivers State, you will.have to register the Keke to fly a particular route and you can't enter another route.


Let your wife occasionally take a drop to and fro her work
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by Spiff20(m): 9:18pm On Sep 25
You should have thought about this before getting married. Anyway, the deed is done. Don't buy any Keke unless you plan on using yourself for transport business. Be booking bolt for her wherever she wants to go in the meantime and use that 800k to invest in a business that will guarantee returns of at least 10k profit daily. 800k won't even get you a Keke. Order bolt for her.

There should be an 800k car. Search on YouTube. There are car dealers still with such cars. Contact one, and buy.

It's the same reason I haven't married yet. I made a vow to myself to get my first car before marrying to avoid jumping buses and Keke with my beautiful wife. Let me suffer alone than suffer with wife and kids. It'll be too painful and will add a lot of pressure on my life. It's better to eat once a day as a single man than with your wife and children. No good woman or unborn child deserves to suffer that way. God willing I'll get that car soon. It's not for pride or luxury, but a necessity and for some little respect.

Instead of buying Keke. Look for a reliable cooperative society around you. Save up to 6 months. Collect ×2 of your savings as loan and get one good naija used Honda. You can use the ride for e-hailing service to shore up maintenance money and your loan repayment.

Marriage isn't for boys

Imagine you want to buy Keke of 800k cos your wife is complaining

Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by oylam(m): 9:49pm On Sep 25
I like the advices so far. Buy the keke. About your wife, you can find someone to share the keke with who can take her to and fro.

But never treat it as a hands-free business where you don’t need to drive it yourself - especially in the evening if you want the anonymity.

Everything depreciates so fast. Keep that 800k and you will eventually take from it. If you buy it, even if it’s one evening you see someone you don’t mind giving a ride from the street, carry and charge am only.

Imagine giving birth to a daughter who you will buy a car for if you’re opportune. Would you give her to a man who wouldn’t do the same for her? Why would you treat your own wife like this?

Just 4 months and she dey pressure you and you dey bend? Hmm, e go long for you o.

Anyway, buying 800k Keke will likely reduce your lifespan by 70% because, nah 4th hand e go be. So, be VERY VERY careful.
Re: Recently Got Married, Thinking Of Buying Keke by criuze(m): 11:23pm On Sep 25
Don't buy the Keke if you're not willing to be called a Keke man, anyway you're a family man

Aside that, buying Keke is a nice side hustle, that help you out in emergency


If you must buy make sure it's tvs don't buy Bajaj, tvs last very long,

I bought mine after a seven years use, and I managed it well before I dropped it , still working fantastic

Equally know that Keke parts are quite expensive, secondly you must ask out for the best mechanic in your hood, otherwise, it can be frustrating repairing it
