President Tinubu gave the residents this assurance on Thursday at the official commissioning of the Kugbo Bus Terminal in by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
President Tinubu represented by the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio said that the FCT Administration was tackling the menace of ‘one-chance’ operators with reforms in public transport infrastructure.
“We heard your concerns, we understood your fears, and we acted. With your compliance, you will no longer suffer from one chance by the roadside,” he
said.
Tinubu stated that the newly built terminal, along with the earlier commissioned Mabushi terminal, would end chaotic public transport in the capital.
“You will all agree with me that the Mabushi and Kugbo International Bus Terminals meet with global practices, meet with global principles of sustainable urban development in the area of transportation, and automatically erases ugly experiences of chaotic public transportation in our capital city, previously fraught, but long with challenges.
“The terminals align with development goals of transit-oriented cities, smart mobility, compact living spaces, parking management, willing support of stakeholders and citizens, and ultimately transforming lives”, Mr. President said.
