The Youth Employment Agency (YEA) is set to introduce an innovative Electric Taxi Programme aimed at offering an alternative livelihood for interested Okada riders and other youth in the country. The initiative seeks to transition riders from motorcycles to environmentally friendly electric taxis, providing a safer and more sustainable means of earning a living. Through this programme, YEA aims to empower young people by offering them the opportunity to participate in the burgeoning electric vehicle sector, contributing to the country's green energy goals while creating jobs. The electric taxis will be available to interested individuals, particularly Okada riders looking for a safer and more regulated income stream. The programme is expected to not only enhance road safety but also reduce the environmental impact of transportation by promoting the use of clean energy vehicles. By providing these electric taxis, YEA continues to fulfil its mandate of creating job opportunities for the youth, fostering e conomic growth, and supporting sustainable development. Details regarding the application process and requirements for the Electric Taxi Programme will be announced soon, with YEA encouraging all eligible youth to seize this opportunity to improve their livelihoods.
