B-Lord Unveils Electric Taxi Service in Awka, Revolutionizing Transportation with Affordable Fares
Awka, Anambra State — In a groundbreaking move for the transportation sector, Nigerian billionaire and tech entrepreneur B-Lord has launched an innovative electric taxi service in Awka.
During the test run of this new service, he dramatically slashed transport fares, offering trips from Ebenebe to Awka for just ₦300—an impressive reduction from the typical ₦1,000 charged by tricycle (keke) operators.
B-Lord announced plans to expand the fleet of electric taxis throughout the city, with the goal of reducing transportation costs by over 600%.
He highlighted the profitability of his business model, noting that electric vehicles eliminate the need for petrol, engine oil, and frequent servicing, requiring only periodic charging.
To support this eco-friendly initiative, B-Lord is establishing solar-powered charging stations at key locations around Awka, ensuring sustainable operations.
He also expressed intentions to extend this initiative to other cities in Anambra State, furthering his commitment to affordable and environmentally friendly transportation solutions.
This initiative is set to disrupt the traditional transport sector, providing commuters with a cost-effective alternative while advancing the adoption of clean energy in Nigeria.
B-Lord’s vision not only aims to enhance mobility but also to contribute positively to the environment, making strides towards a greener future.
