The Abia State Government has shifted its plans to restrict the operational hours of tricycles and motorcycles earlier slated for July 1, 2024. This is coming a few days after it announced the July 1 restrictions.

In a statement signed by Okey Kanu, the Commissioner for Information and Culture, the state government said August 1, 2024, is the new date to commence the enforcement of the 6 am to 7 am order. The state government, however, said that the enumeration and registration of all commercial vehicles, tricycles and motorcycles in the transport sector in Abia will commence on July 1, as scheduled.

According to Kanu, the adjustment was to accommodate the numerous pleas by the Abia people for more time to prepare for the effective implementation and enforcement of the policy. The news of the adjustment was celebrated by the Keke NAPEP riders, passengers and traders, who said the adjustment saved them from transportation crises. At Isi Gate, the busiest part of Umuahia, some Keke NAPEP riders and traders were seen exchanging banters of relief on Monday evening because of the postponement.
