EWAC (Every Woman Any Car) is an initiative that aims at equipping and empowering women to own cars or have access to safe and comfortable transportation. It aims to reduce the numbers of Nigerian women that do not know how to drive.

EWAC will open up the job creation aspect of women becoming respectable and revered cab drivers with Uber, Oga Taxi  and many more.

Many women from their youth are raised to have a disinterest towards cars, and the average Nigerian parent would rather empower the male child to learn how to drive and be given a car, over the girl child. The domino effect and consequence is that 4 in 5 women in Nigeria don't know how to drive and women generally don't see avenues for making wealth in the auto industry.

The long term goal of EWAC is to reduce cases women with all their children on okada or hearing a pregnant woman delivering her baby inside a "Keke Napep"  (auto powered tricycle) on her way to the hospital.

EWAC  wants women to penetrate the auto and auto allied industry, and is rolling out the brand franchise scheme to empower them in this regard.

Women should have access to one of the basic tools of life - Safe and Comfortable Mobility.
