Jonathan to Unveil Locally Assembled Tricycles in Abuja

Goodluck Jonathan is expected to launch two locally assembled tricycle models, VZ150 and VZ200, in Abuja on October 21. This initiative by Zeetin Technologies aims to provide affordable transportation solutions for traders, farmers, artisans, and small businesses.

The tricycles are assembled at Zeetin's manufacturing facility located in the Idu Industrial Area of the Federal Capital Territory. The project is in technical partnership with VIAR Motor Indonesia, which has over 30 years of experience in three-wheeler engineering.

Azibaola Robert, Chairman of Zeetin Technologies and Kakatar Group Limited, stated that the initiative seeks to lower transportation costs, enhance domestic manufacturing, and create job opportunities. The vehicles are designed to meet the transportation needs of various businesses.

Additionally, the project will support skills development and local sourcing of components as production expands. The first units will be handed over during the unveiling, marking Zeetin's entry into Nigeria's domestic tricycle market.
