Agency Report

Passengers were stranded in Kano on Monday following a one week strike embarked on by tricycle operators.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the development reduced traffic gridlock normally being experienced in the city as a result of the high number of tricycles.

Most of the passengers were left with no option other than to either suspend their local travels within the metropolis or trek.

A passenger, Malam Abdullahi Ali, lamented on the strike, saying it will affect many people because tricycles remained the major means of transport within the metropolis.
