This is the second part of a continued review of Road
Transportation Companies in Africa. The first part reviewed ABC
Transport and this part of the review will be about God
Is Good Motors (GIGM).
Like we have said in the first review, road transportation in West Africa is
very important, the major reason for this is the fact that just one passport is
required to travel in all west African countries: the ECOWAS passport; if you
have this Passport you don’t have to travel by air, you may go wherever you
want in West Africa by road. A lot of people are beginning to take advantage of
this opportunity; hence, the need for effective road transportation companies.

companies in Nigeria and West Africa; we’ll try to review how they perform
