They are so hideous, my God, that they spoil the aesthetic of xamer. There are so many of them in the city that it is an eyesore. Replace tuktuks with white cabs or even a uber.

Wait they got banned? Since when?
Tuktuks, believe it or not, are hideous and should be prohibited. Anyways They must have heard my complaint since it appears to be banned.Ok we will ban tuktuk's ,because @Wild daisy ๐๐ป๐ฎ doesnt like its aesthetic
If we were to go by that logic, what are we to do about the thousands of families being supported by them?
Average tuktuk driver earns 10$ - 15$ a day, excluding tips, and nicely supports his family.
I met a young man, who returned from S Africa, said he was loving it, and easily supports his extended family from driving it.
Replace them with taxis, as I previously stated, and in my humble view, thousands of families being supported by driving automobiles is unhealthy; With the prohibition on tuktuks, the government should invest in job creation by constructing factories and textile mills. These businesses can employ thousands of people and are more stable.
Much less, but not for everyone.

what do you mean "not for everyone"?
Ideally perhaps, but in reality not quite so; walaal, there is no gov't, which could even think about, let alone take on those governmental duties. Business people are vultures only out for themselves.
I would not advise a lady of certain social standing, from the diaspora, hop on in one of those. Before you know it, you would covered in dust, and sand.
Cute? When I was in garrisa, it felt like the whole thing was about to crash. They are less expensive than a taxi.

they look cute to me 
By the way, do you know the cost variance between owning one of these vs a taxi? Most people can not afford to own a taxi.
Worse yet, the average person, does not have the means to take a taxi. The average cost for a short drive in Dhaweeye is 1$ +.
Not ideal for exploring the city; it could only take 2, or possibly 3 people a time. Short trips, yes.
