The Permanent Secretary in the state Ministry of Transport, Mr. Ogbonna Idike, announced this on Saturday in Enugu after a meeting with the executives and members of the commercial tricycle union.
The meeting was invoked by the ministry on the sidelines of the peaceful protest held by some members of the tricycle union on Friday over harassment and extortion by tricycle taskforce members operating within the Enugu metropolis.
The permanent secretary lambasted the tricycle operators for not officially reporting the matter to the ministry on time as the ministry’s offices remained open for the public and road stakeholders, especially drivers/riders.“Henceforth, the state government, through the ministry, will streamline and sanction all transport union task forces to conform to best practices and standards as well as ensure that hoodlums and thugs do not hijack such exercises.
