The Spark That Ignited a Transport Empire

In the immediate aftermath of the Civil War, while visiting Onitsha to assess his father’s property, Okeke encountered a common yet critical problem: a dire need for an efficient transportation system.

On that fateful day, Okeke picked up eight passengers and drove them to Enugu, charging them a fare of just £1.00. Not stopping there, he continued by transporting another eight people to Anambra.

Realizing the potential of the transportation business, Okeke set his sights on building a service that could cater to the growing needs of the Nigerian populace.
