AUMTCO: FCT EXCO calls for resuscitation of Abuja transportation service

By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

The Federal Capital Territory Executive Committee, FCT EXCO, has urged the Abuja Investment Company Limited (AICL), to resuscitate the Abuja Urban Mass Transport Company (AUMTCO), for efficient and effective mass transportation services in the FCT.

The FCT EXCO asked that AUMTO to revamp the Transportation Company for improved performance for the benefit of residents.

Also, the Abuja Investment Company Limited charged AUMTCO to ensure buses get back on the roads in order to meet the aims for which it was established.

However, the EXCO noted that the FCT Administration should not continue to fund a Company which has been given the necessary support by the Administration and has wherewithal to take appropriate and profitable decisions for its sustenance.

Accordingly, the EXCO enjoined the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), to henceforth, ensure that the roads network are designed in the Federal Capital City to include laybys, to carter for taxi and bus stops.

AICL is an investment company established by the FCT Administration and saddled with the responsibility of managing assets, investments, and business interests of the FCTA.
