Good development. Instead of those lousy NURTW collecting dues and feeding fat on the liquidity of the public transportation system, the someone of the money should also go to the state government coffers.

This new N800 daily levy is different from what the agberos collect daily o. It's written there in the story.

Are you in Nigeria?
Those in that meeting are those that have be filtered, they are the ones benefiting from the process. The common drivers in the streets will not be allowed into that meeting.
MC olumo clearly stated it that this #800 is different from NURTW dues.
It's well.

Yes, it is different. But we can only guess how much they're currently paying to different government agencies across all local governments in the state.

I wanted to react negatively just like others but I noticed something. I didn't see the drivers' representatives at the meeting complaining. That means given the various smaller multiple amounts they were paying before, this harmonised version must be a better deal for them.

They previously had to pay taxes to every local government that they passed through (which could add up to ₦3,000 per day) . Now they will only need to pay tax to one local government per day and that's just ₦800 per day.

Read between the lines, it does not affect their levy

NURTW Chairman, Lagos chapter, Alhaji Akinsanya, while clarifying the issue, stated that the N800 would not cover the levy collected by the ‘agberos,’ saying it only affected the taxes and other charges being collected by the state government.

According to him, “I want to make it clear that the N800 daily levy only covers all the money collected by the MDAs; it does not affect NURTW ticket.”

Hope you have your own car? Even at that, you're not safe because so many people will be out of jobs and you'll be a target for robbers. Which way, everyone will be affected so stop massaging your balls

In what way?
Some of these transporters make more money than you as a salary earner or a small business enterprise. If government is collecting tax from you what is stopping them from transporter who benefit more on good good roads being maintained by state government.

I believe you comment negatively because of hatred for Tinubu

And please don't complain about the hike in transport faire
