Keke NAPEP Participants Association (KENAPDA) in Maiduguri has started re-registration and re-branding of members for all commercial tricycles in Borno state to stem insecurity.
A visit to KENAPDA in Gwange area of Maiduguri, the office was a beehive of activities.
Chairman of KENAPDA, Alhaji Terab, told journalists that, “we’re right now re-registering all the Keke NAPEP members under us and the identification number is now also being re-branded to 5 CM, which is bigger than the usual 0.5 – 1 CM, as advised by the security agencies.”
“We’re complying with this directive in the best interest of the people and also ensure the safety of the people as well as security of our members,” Terab said.
“So far, the exercise is hitch free as you can see the crowd, while every branch has been instructed to send their members to the main office for the re-registration before our Task Force in collaboration with the security agents. We will again go round Maiduguri city to track down the criminals using keke NAPEP in town or the bad eggs among us, including those pretending to be our members,” he added.
