In Nigeria, 31-year-old Mustafa Gajibo is living his childhood dream.
Four years ago, he set out to tackle the pollution caused by smoke-emitting tricycles in his home city of Maiduguri.
He began by re-fitting tricycles and minibuses with electric motors and batteries.
This has not only reduced pollution but also the cost of transportation as petrol prices go up in Nigeria.
Today, he's the owner of a small business, which manufactures different types of electric vehicles.
Here's his story in his own words:
