BLORD BLESSES AWKA TOWN WITH ELECTRIC CARS

Billionaire Tech Entrepreneur B-Lord Launches Electric Taxi Service in Awka, Slashes Transport
Fares
Awka, Anambra State —Nigerian billionaire businessman and tech entrepreneur, B-Lord, has taken
a bold step toward revolutionizing transportation in Awka with the introduction of his electric taxi
service. While test-running the new vehicle, he drastically reduced transport fares, charging just
? 300 for a trip from Ebenebe to Awka—significantly lower than the ? 1,000 typically charged by
tricycle (keke) operators.
B-Lord revealed that he plans to deploy more of these electric taxis across the city, aiming to cut
transportation costs by as much as more than 600%. He assured that his business model is highly
profitable, as the electric cars do not require petrol, engine oil, or regular servicing—only periodic
charging.
To ensure sustainable operations, B-Lord is reportedly setting up solar-powered charging stations at
strategic locations across Awka. He also hinted at plans to expand the initiative to other cities in
Anambra State, reinforcing his commitment to providing affordable and eco-friendly transportation
solutions.
His initiative is expected to disrupt the transport sector, offering commuters a cost-effective
alternative while promoting clean energy adoption in Nigeria.
