 Delta State Government has said it may consider investment in electric vehicles for mass transportation to mitigate the impact of fuel subsidy removal on the citizens. The State Governor, Right Honourable Sharif Aburburi, stated these shortly after inspection and test drive of two electric vehicles presented by the company in Government House, Asaba, the state capital. We are studying this model and we feel that we've had a meeting and we are coming out with our own decision very shortly to know whether we'll go in that direction with the present high-cost fuel. So, and everybody is trying to move away from this fuel issue so that it also is a chronicle. The issue is just to save costs. I'm putting a theme that we study the work plan, maybe something that is doable and something that the state can do and to see how we can also support the transporters. On his part, the chairman of the transportation company, Chidi Ageru, said investing in electric vehicles was the way to go because the vehicles were eco-friendly and cheaper to manage. Also, before thinking we can't just continue to complain and looking at the downside, we need to be able to lead not just Africa, but in the workplace of mobility. Nigeria needs to stand very tall and like I mentioned, we have solar and sun in abundance in Nigeria and we're just taking advantage of all the natural source of power and reducing dramatically the cost of transportation for the people who really need it and we think that that solution over the medium and very long term of the EV, CNG has a role to play but with CNG we still have to deal with a lot of the internal combustion engine problem that is complacent with petrol vehicles. Again, in Nigeria, everywhere you go around Nigeria, including the North, there's abundance of sun. However, when you build solar charging infrastructure, it comes with the charger, the inverters and the battery. So, even when you don't have sun on a gloomy day like this, the battery store the power from the sun so that any time you have a vehicle go into the station, the vehicle can still tap the stored power from the sun, right? In fact, you can even go a step further and still build those infrastructure. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
