Anambra joins other states in the ban of commercial motor-cycles (okada)

Anambra joins other states in the ban of commercial motor-cycles (okada) from major metropolitan cities (Awka and Onitsha) in the states.

We have procured 1,750 unites of tricycles at the cost of 765million naira.

Existing commercial motorcyclists, popularly known as Okada operators will purchase the Keke Napep at a subsidized cost of N170,000 each as against the open market price of N550,000.

The tricycles were strictly for commercial motorcyclists popularly called okada, warning politicians to keep off as it was not meant for political patronage, i advise the politicians should go to the open market to purchase their own if theywere genuinely interested in empowering their boys with tricycles.

We have decided to phase out Okada Operations in Awka and Onitsha to quicken the process of turning the state into a Morden place like Dubai.

Purchase can be made through the Anambra Small Business Agency (ASBA). Or contact the Director of the Scheme Hon. Ezeugo James.
