Introduction
Getting from Owode to Jobele shouldn't feel like a battle, but every day, it is a struggle. The transport system in Oyo is chaotic, to say the least.
The Chaos
- Micra Madness: The drivers stop in the middle of the road, causing unnecessary traffic.
- Price Hikes: There is no regulation. If it rains, the price doubles. If it's 7 PM, the price triples.
- Scarcity: Try getting a cab after 8 PM in some areas—it is impossible.
The Solution?
We need a better-organized system. We need designated bus stops that are actually enforced. And maybe, just maybe, it is time for a regulated tricycle (Keke) system that operates on fixed routes with fixed prices. We deserve a commute that doesn't raise our blood pressure.
