On Thursday, Nigus Enfinity, an indigenous firm, announced that it will introduce electric vehicles into the Nigerian automobile market in 2018.
Malik Ado-Ibrahim, chairman of the company, made this known to journalists in an interactive session which held in Abuja.
Nigerians on social media had a lot to say about the proposed plan, especially as the country continues to grapple with stable power supply.
Here are some reactions from Twitter and Facebook
