The federal government has finalised plans to roll out 10,000 electric tricycles for use as part of a broad plan to ease public transportation across Nigeria.

The tricycles would be distributed by the North East Development Commission (NEDC) in August this year, for use across the northeast region and beyond.

Vice President Kashim Shettima, who disclosed this yesterday, during a courtesy visit by ‘The Transporters for Tinubu/Shettima 2027,’ said the President, “has approved the replication of the initiative in other parts of the country by the various regional development commissions.”
