Angry commercial bus drivers and Keke riders are currently protesting in Enugu metropolis.According to the protesting communters , they are tired of haressments by officials of the State Ministry of Transport (MoT).

MoT officials, often time impound their buses for unjustifiable reasons.
He further accused the Ministry of intimidating their members and subjecting them to untold hardship.

“We are tired of intimidations. If the State Government doesn’t want us to operate again they should just tell us. How can you be using ‘Government official’ stunt to collect arbitrary charges from us”, said a Keke rider, who identified himself as Mr. Ugochukwu Ndubuisi.
