Where did you see Lagos doing this. They are still packed like sardines inside the public buses, with agberos/touts collecting money from the drivers. Nothing has changed.

COVID-19: Local Transport Company In Edo State, New Sitting Arrangement (Photos)

Transporters in Benin City, the Edo State Capital encourages social distancing in their bid to curb the spread of the dreadful COVID-19 pandemic.

This period has really shown that people of Edo State value lives over money as they adopt a new sitting arrangement for long-distance travel within the state.

From Benin-City, the Capital to other parts of the state the sitting arrangement remains two persons per row and one at the front seat near the driver.

Nevertheless, prices increased by 40 percent i.e if one paid 1000 naira from Benin City to Uromi, or Auchi now you pay #1,400. A driver when asked about the added price made it clear that it's nothing to raise alarms about as the "extra" went to security agencies on the highway ( the police and FRSC) for their tireless efforts in this period of uncertainty.

“ Simply telling them to keep up the good work. Nothing more nothing less” He concluded

A very welcome development if you ask me.

Much as it is a good steps to promote social distancing and ensuring good health for commuters against the novel coronavirus diseases.

The bad effect is that it will not make this commercial drivers balance their account some of whom might be doing balance and take and other social contractual obligations.

To make end meets the commercial drivers will be forced to scale up the bus fare with the commuters at the receiving ends.

In other words, cost of transportation will increase in our major cities where the confid 19 policy is in place.

ALSO, AGBEROS, POLICEMEN are also pressing the commercial drivers for their own share of the transport fare.

Nigeria has a gross irresponsible government who do not care about the feelings of the commonman.

Government is supposed to bear the cost of the changes but no, the commuters are made to pay more for what is not their making.

Tfare is never people's problem. The issue is even when you agree to pay that fare on a normal day, the greedy bus drivers will still full the car the next day, and start charging the same price for when it isn't full...

Na we dey do ourselves no be any Bubu...
