Alarming Crime in Kano: Keke Rider Drugged and Tricycle Stolen
In Kano, two individuals have been arrested for allegedly drugging a commercial tricycle rider, Mamman Musa, and stealing his tricycle.
The victim was found unconscious and was promptly taken to Murtala Mohammed Specialist Hospital for medical attention.
This incident highlights the ongoing challenges faced by tricycle operators in Nigeria, who are often targeted by criminals due to the nature of their work.
In a similar case, a tricycle rider in Delta State was found dead inside his tricycle, raising concerns about the safety of these operators.
In contrast, there have been instances where tricycle riders have demonstrated remarkable honesty.
For example, a tricycle rider in Kano returned N15 million that a passenger had accidentally left behind, despite facing mockery from friends and community members.
