Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has approved a flat rate increase by N100 in bus fares for all Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) and Standard Routes with effect from July 13.

The Assistant Director, Corporate Communication, Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA), Mr Kolawole Ojelabi confirmed this in a statement in Lagos on Thursday.

Sanwo-Olu said the increase was to sustain the operations of regulated bus services in Lagos state.

“The increase, which will come into effect on July 13, is aimed at ensuring the sustainability of the BRT and standard route schemes.

“These measures are indispensable in the current global economic and environmental reality to ensure the sustainability of the BRI operation.

“With the increase, a bus ride from Ikorodu – TBS will now cost N600 from N500 while Berger to Ajah is now N700, up from N600.

“Oshodi to Abule Egba will cost N450 from N350 and Abule-Egba-CMS-Obalende will attract a fare of N600.”

He needs the money to support and finance Tinubu’s presidency

I advise the people using the BRT not go there and start complaining, remember the other driver that murdered a lady is yet to be sentenced

Know this and know peace,

APC is a party of inflation and tightening the noose of poverty on citizens

The headline though, lolz

Lol na water the Bus dey use abi Diesel price wey increase he no reach the Bus side...


Maybe the Govt shu kuku make it a free bus since you people believe the high diesel rate no affect BRT...

APC.... A very demonic wicked government. Acting demonically like they care while inflicting unbearable pains on the masses. These guys are heartless animals.

Tinubu will do worse than Buhari in terms of hardship inflicting

MARK MY WORDS

What's the difference between these prices and the regular danfo?

Imagine something that sells for like 280 just jump all of a sudden to 800 and you're still expecting subsidy from that wetin go up beyond 200 percent....

Nigeria just want everything for free....

APC(All problem coming) na evil party.

Wake up every morning and before you brush your teeth pray that Tinubu and Atiku will only rule Nigeria in their dreams. Do this everyday and thank me in 2023

Una never sew anything yet.

He will show una pepper after election.

This one na testing

Either he gets 2nd term ticket or not, with current economic realities, that's the best option, do you want subsidy on bus again so there can be another form of cabal through it?

Governor Sanwo-olu is so magnanimous to Lagosians, the fare should have been increased by 200 naira since diesel jumped from 230 naira to 800 naira.
Omo Ibo, be grateful

Diesel is about 800/lt.

At least we can see what Lagos state are doing with the money they are generating.

The maintenance and extension of the roads are part of it
