In a bid to curb kidnapping and ‘one chance’ robbery, the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike has warned that commercial vehicles that are not profiled will not be allowed in Abuja after 2025.
The Minister, made this known during the Renewed Hope Youth Empowerment Program in Abuja on Thursday.
He said, “Most of the Keke Napep and most of the motorcycles are informants. Everybody here that is a beneficiary is being profiled by the security.
“And so what we are coming up with is that from January next year, there will be nobody that will operate as a taxi driver or a bus driver without having approval from security, with security profiling you and without going about with Abuja colour.
“Nothing like using any vehicle on the road. No, we won’t allow that. From January, we won’t allow that.
“We will take the vehicle number, name of the drivers and the rest so everybody will have confidence that this is the vehicle I’m entering in case anything happens
