Security Tip: Check for the Security Number and other Details

Before boarding any Keke tricycle in Nigeria, ensure that it is duly registered by the presence of the 4 or 5 digit security number on its body. Try and memorize this number before patronizing the tricycle. However, do not forget to also scan the entire tricycle for any suspicious details. This may range from the general disposition of the driver, the passengers and the interior look of the Keke tricycle.

Security Tip: Be sure to satisfy your curiosity before boarding

Having been satisfied, you may board the keke tricycle. However, do not give in to unnecessary discussions with passengers nor drivers. Remember that you just met them and cannot tell whether they are credible people. Any careless information you divulge can easily jeopardize your personal security. Be alert and listen attentively to other people's discussion in the Keke tricycle. Your assessment of the situation at any point along the journey will help you plan your safe exit.

Security Tip: Ensure the Journey Sticks to the Route

If you are conversant with the traditional route to your destination, do not allow the Keke driver to change course without your approval. If you are not satisfied with any decision to change course by either the driver or the passengers, do not make trouble. However, kindly request to disembark from the Keke tricycle.

What to do incase of Security Breach or Threat

Incase of any security challenges encountered while on transit in a keke tricycle, all you need is to report to the police or the authorities, stating the security identification numbers embedded on the body of the keke tricycle. The identity of the Keke tricycle operator will be immediately known.
 
The keke tricycle security identification numbers are usually controlled by the Keke tricycle union, duly registered by the government. This union works in collaboration with the Nigeria Police, the Road Safety Corps, the Vehicle Inspection Office and other security outfits.
 
Your personal security with respect to patronizing keke tricycles in Nigeria can be largely improved by making sure that the security identification number is present on any keke tricycle you wish to board. Unfortunately, too many Nigerians ignore this simple security strategy which is why, too many ugly incidents occur to unsuspecting Keke tricycle passengers in Nigeria.
