Keke do not need APRON to work, our Keke is already Coded with VIO NO. APRON is for Okada riders .
We do not have space to put basket, as the ministry of environment do not have waste collection poin or recycling plants to mange waste that the buses are already collecting, and we cannot be come a target for CRIMINAL to use us as scap goats while the drop substance that will incriminate tricycle Riders.
