ResQ-X, a new mobile app for 24/7 roadside assistance, is set to launch in Lagos, offering a
tech-enabled approach to solving the city’s persistent vehicle breakdown challenges.
In Nigeria, millions of vehicles break down annually, with Lagos alone accounting for an
overwhelming volume of roadside issues. Currently, motorists often face frustrating wait times of
3-5 hours, limited service availability, and unpredictable costs. ResQ-X aims to change this
experience, by providing a clear solution: accessible, efficient roadside assistance with
transparent pricing, fast arrival times, and a commitment to user trust and safety.
ResQ-X ensures fast assistance by dispatching dedicated, geolocation-tracked first responders
who arrive within 15 minutes. The trained technicians provide comprehensive on-site support,
often resolving issues on the spot for a seamless user experience.
“Our goal at ResQ-X is to make roadside assistance accessible, reliable and transparent for
everyone,” says Nosa Okoroji, CEO and founder of ResQ-X. “We want to create a seamless,
safe experience for motorists, providing fast response times and a service they can trust every
time. With flexible subscription plans starting from just N3,000 per month on an annual plan, as well as a convenient pay-per-use option, we’re ensuring that drivers have 24/7 access to
essential services. From battery jump-starts and flat tire assistance to fuel delivery, towing, key
replacements, and vehicle health inspections, ResQ-X is here to provide a reliable, worry-free
driving experience.”
With a single tap, users can access these services, track their assigned responder in real time,
and receive instant updates on arrival. ResQ-X’s verified network prioritizes a feedback-driven
quality assurance system that continuously improves the service to meet the needs of Lagos’s
diverse driver community.
As ResQ-X approaches its official launch, the app has already gathered a waitlist of 3,500+
users and formed partnerships with 8 well-known industry providers. By combining advanced
geolocation, 24/7 availability, and a local team dedicated to rapid response, ResQ-X is set to
bring a transformative roadside assistance experience to the Nigerian market.
