MINISTER COMMENDS WIKE FOR CONSTRUCTING BUS TERMINALS IN ABUJA.

The Minister of Transportation, Said Alkali, has commended FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, for constructing three bus and taxi terminals in Abuja. 

Alkali gave the commendation in Abuja on Tuesday during the inauguration of the completed Mabushi Bus and Taxi Terminal, constructed by the Wike-led Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA).

Describing the Mabushi Bus and Taxi Terminal, recently inaugurated, as a "landmark achievement" that would improve public transport and boost economic activities in the territory, the Minister noted that the terminal would facilitate the realization of President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda, which prioritizes transportation. 

He also revealed that six bus terminals would be constructed in each geopolitical zone, with locations chosen for their strategic commercial viability.

Earlief, Wike said the FCT Administration had inaugurated the construction of three bus and taxi terminals in 2024, with plans to construct three more this year.

He explained that the terminals aim to enhance security by reducing the number of vehicles on the road and eliminating the "one chance" syndrome where commuters are vulnerable to attacks.
