The Kano State Government, through the Kano Road Traffic Agency, has banned tricycle riders known as “Adaidaita Sahu” from operating on some major roads within Kano metropolis in the state from Wednesday, November 30, 2022.
The Public Relations Officer of KAROTA, Nabilusi Na’isa, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.
He said the decision to ban the tricycle became imperative following the provision of 100 ultra-modern buses and 50 taxis that would ply the metropolis by the government.
“Adaidaita Sahu drivers (tricycle operators) are prohibited from following Ahmadu Bello Way by Mundubawa road to Gazawa and Tal’udu road to Gwarzo,” the statement partly read.
The government stated that it had provided the buses in order to enhance transportation in the state as well as to make it easier for people to follow these routes.
According to the statement, the government will also announce when tricycle operators will stop using other major roads in the state once it provides more ultra-modern buses and taxis to ease traffic congestion in Kano city.
