President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led federal government has launched a portal for youths to register for the distribution of 2000 compressed natural gas (CNG) powered tricycles.
The minister of state for youth development, Ayodele Olawande, said the portal became possible after the federal government successfully launched 2,000 CNG tricycles on October 1.
