Bolt launches in Uyo and Calabar
Bolt (formerly Taxify), the leading on-demand transportation platform
in Africa, today launched operations in Uyo and Calabar.
It is the first ride-hailing service to connect passengers with
drivers in these cities.
The expansion move brings Bolt’s cities in Nigeria to a total of
seven: the service is already well established in Lagos, Abuja,
Ibadan, Owerri and Benin City.
Bolt is a cell phone-based application that lets passengers easily,
quickly and cost-effectively request for a driver to pick them up
wherever they are, to take them wherever they want to go.
Uche Okafor, Bolt’s Regional Manager for West Africa: “After our
successful launches in Nigeria’s main centres, expanding to Uyo and
Calabar is a natural next step for Bolt as it further reinforces our
position to make urban travel easier, quicker and more reliable. We
are also looking forward to introducing flexible employment
opportunities to thousands of drivers and vehicle owners in both
cities”.
