It is probably the system that sucks... Having drivers work everyday travelling long distances; from Uyo to Lagos, Lagos to Abuja, Port Harcourt to Abuja etc. everyday by the same drivers? shocked

Totally unsustainable. They have to change the system. Humans not robots.


But hey! They are amongst the best, but have to do more regarding drivers' welfare and work-life balance.

You are right. Our driver almost killed us when we took night bus to Abuja. Thank God for the man that sat in front.

How does a bus on fire relate to sleeping on steering or careless driving?

This same scenario occurred at that same spot 6 months ago......i almost lost a female colleague....
Imagine a GIGM driver boasting that he made 5 trips for a day....

I really like GIGM based on the business structure but if the management don't take care of their staffs esp the drivers by ensuring they get the required rest needed,they will soon experience frequent accidents like peace mass and be out of business in no time....

Any time i enter a transport bus,i hardly sleep.....Most transport company drivers are just so careless!

The last time i used GIGM to lagos from benin the trip was smooth. God is Good has one of the best fleet and well disciplined drivers in edo state. This incident is kinder disapointing.

Very sensible statement, some people will be fighting for front seat and they are very useless there, front seat passangers are meant to be on the watchout 'drive' with the driver, talk to him everytime to keep him awake, besides these, the drivers should be given a day off to rest after each trip

ABC transport?? ABC transport that its drivers ride their buses like dangote truck drivers.GIGM is far far better than ABC transport. ABC transport that have violent accidents on a daily basis with highly indisciplined drivers.

there was one ABC transport accident that happened on the auchi -okene expressway. The bus was burnt beyond recorgnition with a huge number of casualty. It collided with a fuel truck. If u see the way those ABC drivers drive recklessly ..its like they always high on codiene b4 they embark on their journey.

Re: God Is Good Bus Crashes After Driver Allegedly Slept Off On Steering by priest54: 4:34pm On Sep 24, 2018
Does the company have journey management managers? what level of safety precautionary measure did the company employ? was the driver well managed before embarking on the journey? who sat close to the driver? what was the person's role when he/she noticed that the driver was dozing off?.Not just rushing to take front seat.Finanly what are disciplinary measures in place to correct such abnormaly

Is it not ABC that once had an entire bus hijacked by armed men in the bus posing as passengers several years ago after taking off from PH and taken to an unknown location?
