Luxury Bus Operators Stopped From Operating In Kano
Traders lament ban on luxurious buses in Kano


Some traders in Kano, especially those who travel to the southern part of the country for their business, have lamented the restraining order placed on the operations of luxurious buses in the state.

The Kano Road and Traffic Agency, popularly known as KAROTA, had earlier directed the luxurious owners to relocate from the Sabon Gari Park to Unguwa Uku Motor Park, but the Luxurious Bus Association refused to comply with the directive.

This prompted the agency to go to court with a prayers seeking to ban luxurious buses operation in the state.

A Chief Magistrate Court in Kano on Wednesday later ordered all commercial luxurious buses to stop operating in the state pending the hearing of motion on notice.

One of the traders, Mr Uchendu Okonkwo, who deals in water pumping machines and other plumbing material at Sabon Gari Market, said the court order had really affected his business as he had planned to travel to Lagos on Thursday but could not make it following the order.

“I had planned to go to Lagos by luxurious bus to purchase some things but unfortunately when I reached the park at Unguwa Uku, it was closed,” Okonkwo said.

According to him, many traders who had wanted to travel to the east today were stranded as a result of the suspension placed on the operations of the buses.

Another trader, who simply gave his name as Anthony, said the suspension on the operations of the luxurious buses had taken him by surprise as he planned to travel to Aba to bring the electronic appliances he ordered last week.

“I’m really saddened with the court order because I don’t know what to do now. I have to incur additional expenses if I have to travel by other commercial vehicles,” he said.

He, however, called on the Kano State Government to intervene to save travellers from going through a tough time in carrying out their businesses.

It's pretty so much easier to dish out orders than to move your things in relocation.

It's a very expensive move!

This shouldn't turn to another round of bloodletting, please.
The last thing this matter came up and New Road became their loading park, a few souls died.
Ungwar Uku is not a bad place to load.
I honestly see no harm in relocating them to the outskirts of the city.
Folks should learn to obey rules that seek to make live convenient for the general public.

Their stubbornness is affecting their business and their customers.
Well, when they are tired of losing money/profits.
They will comply at the end.

Why would the Op use an accident luxury bus picture in an article that never talked about accident.

The luxury bus owner should relocate to whatever location approved by government. However their current location is more convince for both passages and motorists.

Nonsense
Re: Luxury Buses Banned In Kano State As Traders Lament by Guyman02: 8:41am On Aug 28, 2020
Why did the OP use picture of a luxury bus in an accident scene for this story showing the name of the bus operator?
The reality is that Kano state wants to develop a new urban area which can be achieved with the relocation of Southerners especially Igbos moving their businesses there.
On the Govt part they should be ready to make the new bus park area conducive in terms of accessibility and facilities.
I have to commend the Kano state for getting a Court injunction instead of using Hisbah police to forcefully eject the bus operators and creating a crisis
