Share this article

The management of Gombe State Transport Services, popularly known as Gombe Line, has dismissed reports alleging that one of its buses was attacked by armed bandits between Ayere and Kabba, with all passengers reportedly abducted. In a press statement issued on Monday, the agency’s Director-General, Sani Sabo, said no such incident had been reported involving any vehicle in its fleet. He described the circulating report as false and urged members of the public to disregard the claim rather than spread information that had not been verified.

Sabo cautioned the public against sharing unconfirmed reports, particularly those relating to security incidents, warning that such information could spread misinformation and cause unnecessary panic. He reiterated the agency’s appeal for people to exercise caution before circulating reports of alleged attacks or abductions. The management also thanked members of the public for their concern and reaffirmed its commitment to providing reliable transport services.
