Please our ebullient governor your excellency Sir, better change their color, I know how you feel about their color. Just to avoid increase in unemployment,

the world is moving to more efficient,faster and cheaper in terms of transport fare, its not only by comfort a lone . if the new transport system will meet the world future standard, then sir, scrap them, if not change their color.

And replace danfo with what? Employment for drivers and conductors nko?

These APC government and their zombies are like NEPA and blackout
They will be properly trained to be employable in the new scheme. These guys are currently constituting nuisance everywhere in Lagos. We need to sanitize the system.

Man with vision for his state. But make I ask, can Lagos state provide enough buses that will make up for the current number of yellow buses?

Secondly, what will happen to the current Danfo drivers? Will the State Government, give them the new buses to run? or will it be another project that will be hijacked by some top politicians?

Finally, will this new arrangement, eradicate all the agberos that collect revenue for every bus stop?

Last Word: I hope the Government consult widely as well as make plans for the current danfo drivers. Possibly incorporating them into their proposed driver training program. The ban of Street Hawking and demolition of some roadside shops and market is already increasing the number of armed robbery incidence. We don't want anything that will further aggravate the situation.

What they are being replaced with is more important than the fact that you want to replace them. It must be better.
Let every one go and put their vocational skills to test. You will finf out that 90% of this drivers have an economic skil but because they are nit ready to give their best shot to get clients with that skill, they ventured into transport. The same reason you see okada everywhere

Many Nairalanders are right. While it looks good on paper that Lagos will resemble london, the truth is that in 30 yrs i doubt if Lagos will look london. What the govt needs is both short range plan and long range plan. On the long range you can fund transit. However, on the short range what we have is Danfos, okadas and kekes. Even tho these may not be the best option, they solve some transportation problems and reduce demand on BRT, private car owners etc. What is needed for danfos, okadas and kekes is standardizing their operations. Setting minimum standards for conditions of their vehicles and operations, providing commercial license category for these drivers and riders and gradually phasing them out to new systems in the long range transportation plan.

This is a good development I must say
How long are we going to be using Danfo and
And keke napep?
And some people are talking about bus conductor? They should think on a way out
The transport ministry are partnering with bus driver and conductor to get loan to help them get the new bus.

Pls go ahead ambode...ppl keep saying how will they get replacements when he is currently planning on how to do so....they also say what will the danfo drivers do, they need to start getting proper licences so they can fit into the new change that is yet to come....either way we will upgrade to a more sane means of transport in lagos.

What I think should be done is to roll out a no more registration of vehicles for Danfo businesses in Lagos policy. In the next 8-10yrs, most of them will disappear from the roads from natural wear and tear.

Itz. A shame we don't have more fasholas, ambodes, even oshiomole's in our 'big cities'


Others just siddon dey wait lagos... restructuring our bus transportation network will reduce these incidents of 'one chance' 'kidnappings' etc

By now we should have functional cams at our bus stops, commuter education to make people know the benefits of boarding and disembarking ONLY at bus stops etc!

It's just sad we still see 'monkeys' shouting mile 12, mile 12!

ok this set of leaders sorry rulers must run this shiit hole
in whatever way they want an deem fit

taking out the danfo because it makes the city less of a modern city
without any consideration for those whom the danfo driving is their only means of lively hood is something worse than the evil witchcraft

A beautiful city with people living lives with no dignity is like what i will call a man without genital (dickkki) aka cassava some please tell these people to learn to take one step at a time and most importantly taking the right steps .
