Former President Goodluck Jonathan is set to unveil a tricycle factory and related products in Abuja on October 21. The factory, Zeetin Technologies, is located in Idu Industrial Area and will assemble and distribute the VZ150 and VZ200 tricycles in Nigeria. The establishment of the factory aims to boost the country's economy through local production of tricycles and related products, according to the company's statement.

Zeetin Technologies is in a technical partnership with VIAR Motor Indonesia, a manufacturer with over thirty years of three-wheeler engineering experience. The tricycle is the working vehicle of various professionals, including market traders, farmers, artisans, distributors, and commuters. Every unit built at the factory carries Nigerian labor and value, with technicians trained at VIAR's works in Semarang now working in Abuja.

The first units produced will be handed to their owners at the launch, with plans to incorporate deeper local content, including compressed natural gas and electric models, transforming the factory into a production industry for Nigeria and Nigerians.
