Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike has said his administration will suspend the operation of tricycles, popularly known as Keke Napepu, in some areas of Abuja.
The minister also said there would be no Keke Napepu operations in Asokoro and Maitama, promising that the Wangchan menace in the Nigerian capital would soon end.
Wike said the FCDA would soon introduce buses and taxes to solve the transportation problem and one-chance criminal activities in the FCT.
“These buses and taxis will ply all routes in Asako-cho and Maitama-cho. We will get rid of the keke napep in these areas at least. Some of these keke napep are agents of criminals. There are some,” Wike said.
The former Rivers State governor added, “With buses, people will prefer to come from their own areas to come to work and go back.”
Addressing real estate developers and residents’ organizations in the Federal Capital Territory, the Minister called on residents to cooperate with the FCDA by paying their taxes.
“It is painful but it is an inconvenience that we have to face,” Wike added.
