The Federal Government will on Wednesday unveil Nigeria’s first electric tricycles in Abuja as part of efforts to promote clean energy adoption under the Renewed Hope agenda.

Speaking with journalists in the capital, Israel Olajumoke, chief executive officer of House of Destiny—the company behind the innovation—confirmed that President Bola Tinubu will officially launch the tricycles on November 26 at Eagle Square.

Olajumoke said the initiative was conceived and developed by the firm before being adopted by the government as a strategic step towards economic growth, environmental sustainability and youth empowerment. He added that the project is being implemented in partnership with the Federal Ministry of Youth Development.

According to him, the introduction of electric tricycles will reduce dependence on fossil fuels, lower transportation costs and create opportunities across the value chain, including assembly, maintenance and technical training for young people.

Further details are expected during the unveiling ceremony in Abuja.
