Lagos State Introduces New Vehicles To Replace Danfo (pic) by Zipopo(m): 3:34am On May 26, 2016
The Lagos state government has unveiled new modern buses it wants to use to replace and phase out danfo and molues in the state. The new buses are expected to be cheaper and durable and the government advised danfo bus owners to key into the project now before it is too late.

The commissioner for transportation, Dr. Dayo Mobereola said the scheme would see to the introduction of higher capacity buses that would have 30 seats as opposed to 14/18 seats, while the buses would be Eco – friendly, air-conditioned, comfortable, support for maintenance and backed by appropriate workshop which creates jobs.

Mobereola said with the introduction of the new mode of transportation, danfo buses would be displaced economically as Lagosians would be left to choose between very cheaper means of transportation and expensive danfos.

The commissioner said Lagosians would rather queue up to board buses at cheaper rate than what the danfos would offer, thus, displacing them economically, adding that some of the existing danfo drivers had already keyed into the project.

He said the National Union of Road Transport Workers had already given government its support for the project.

It seems Mr. Ambode is out of ideas on how to spend Lagos IGR..
Anyone close to him should pls tell him that vehicles aren't infrastructures, they can improve the cost of living, but the long term economic effect is minimal as its a liability not an asset.

1. What infrastructure do Lagos need?
2. Is this a bad development?

Most 'danfos' were bought as neat 'toks'

Maintenance of the vehicles will be a challenge

In 2 years of use, they will all become more or less scraps. Same as what happened with BRT. Same as what befalls every new thing in naija.

They look kinda "toy-ish" to me. Hope they are durable enough to accommodate the stress of Gidi.

Seems only Ambode and Obiano are the only governors we have in this country.

The most important thing is maintenance. We are really lacking in good maintenance culture.
Many of the BRT buses that were launched some years back are now an eyesore.

Obiano launched the Anambra State City Cab Scheme with 200 cabs in December 2014, Nissan (a Japanese brand). Anambra State Mass Transit with 40 buses in February 2015, TATA (an Indian brand). #Charitybeginsathome
