PromiseLand Innovations Limited—the brand behind a ambitious plan to build 100,000 housing units across Nigeria—is officially expanding from real estate into urban mobility with the launch of its new ride-hailing app, **ProTaxi**.

 

Scheduled to launch on October 1, Proa aims to tackle rising urban transit costs by connecting passengers with drivers through an eco-friendly, technology-driven platform. Lead owner Amb. Lawrence Oloche envisions the app as a reliable, cost-effective alternative for everyday commuters, particularly in key hubs starting with the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

**Electric Vehicles at the Core of Lower Fares**

 

A central strategy for ProTaxi is its heavy focus on electric vehicles (EVs). By encouraging clean-energy adoption, the platform seeks to significantly cut fuel and maintenance expenses for drivers—cost savings intended to translate directly into lower fares for riders. Long-term, ProTaxi aims to scale this model to become a leading sustainable ride-hailing brand across Africa.

**Strategic Expansion into Daily Living**

 

Entering the e-hailing space allows PromiseLand to address two of the most critical daily expenses for Nigerians: housing and transportation. As vehicle operating costs remain high nationwide, ProTaxi's EV-centric approach offers a fresh, locally developed alternative designed to ease financial pressure on commuters.

 

Ahead of the official October 1 launch, the **ProTaxi rider application is already available for download** on both iOS and Android platforms.
