Palliatives: Plateau State Prepares for Transport Subsidy With Distribution of 150,000 Transit Cards

Plateau State Government is poised to inaugurate the long-awaited Metro BRT transit service as it distributes over 150,000 Transit Cards to Residents In Plateau City. The new Tincity Metro buses were procured by the Executive Governor, His Excellency, Gov. Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, to serve as a mass transit solution for commuters within and outside Plateau City.

According to reports, this historic mass transit initiative aligns with the visionary agenda of H.E. Gov. Barr. Caleb Mutfwang to alleviate the hardship faced by commuters resulting from the recent fuel subsidy removal, as more transit cards will be distributed.

The Initiative introduces revolutionary transportation with state-of-the-art affordability, starting from 200 naira per trip, new smoother routes to connect all corners of the city, and adopts digitization on seamless ticketing through transit cards powered by Nairaxi; a leading tech mobility company in Nigeria.

With digitization, revenue control will be optimized and efforts will also be made to accommodate cash transaction to enable ease in accessibility. Already, activation of transit cards is underway on campuses, in markets, and other locations across Plateau City to ensure convenience and inclusiveness.

The Tincity Metro BRT promises an improved public transportation experience, assures transit safety, accommodates responsible customer service to support modifications and improvements, while ensuring a 50percent subsidized rate on each trip provided by the state government under HE Caleb Mutfwang.

Onboard every BRT Bus is the "Vicki" prompt Presenter. She humorously, but explicitly keeps riders informed by announcing and explaining schedules, routes, fares, and other useful information to keep commuters and drivers informed.

Speaking to residents about their perception of the new Tincity Metro BRT, Mr. Domkat expressed optimism that the future for better public transportation is bright with this new transit initiative. Another described the Metro BRT as a project that will make public transit easier and safer.

Although, the government is working on clearing the bus terminals to allow for smooth traffic flows which is assumed to be the cause of delays in the commencement of operation of the Metro BRTs.

According to top administrative Executives, the roads must be cleared before the 14 new German buses can begin operations in the city. However, the need for urgent sanitization of the city is imperative to allow the full operation of the urban mass transit initiative in Plateau State.

However plateau State residents are encouraged to join the government in ensuring the smooth operation of Tincity Metro BRT which will be operational on eight major routes for connectivity and convenient commuting.

Much better than using palliative for religious segregation and oppression of minority. Nothing like any demonic Ramadan palliative.

you nailed it! Heading to Jos this weekend!

Oh Plateau the Beautiful! My beloved home, whose people loved me unreservedly, until it came to school politics! No place like Plateau..Plateau is home. God bless Plateau!

This is what we are talking about. This Governor knows the real deal. This is better than distributing grains, (when citizens are not pigeons) rice and beans every 4 eke market days. At least if every seller gets such a reasonable fare to their places of buying and selling, automatically, prices of items will fall. The reasons why prices of all these produce are high, is mostly because of transportation. Subsidizing this sector and digitizing it, is the beginning of the long awaited solution to the economic hardship this current administration has been battling with. Enough of all the bad news that comes from that supposed beautiful City of Jos. That City used to be one of the Most beautiful towns in Nigeria. I pray this Governor and his team makes Nigerians proud again. Kudos to the Governor once again. You have done well sir.

COMRADES, this is commendable

This fat Buffalo who calls himself governor thinks that CURE is better than PREVENTION.

Anyway I laugh in Swahili 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Tin City hmmm

One of the good head out of the 36

You spoil it, NO MORALS.

Sense is gradually becoming common in the country

Good one

When will Tinubu's CNG buses arrive

If there's no more tin, isn't that enough reason to name it as so in a country where we are poor at documenting history and records.

Enugu is still called coal city
Benue is still called food basket

Your past is your heritage. Wealth from Tin mining attracted people from all over the world to Jos in the past.

Jos is a big town though, nothing near a "city" in any indices

That's good

Is that all?

What about the students who lost their lives for food palliatives

My Beautiful Plateau state ❤️
I missed Jos City shaaa

how is it a solution?

since the fares are cheaper, has it not occurred to you, that everybody will want to use thereby creating more queues than the queues u are already used to?

u de hear BRT for Lagos. you think it is all rosy?

you will get to d point when you will prefer entering regular buses than these new ones if u dont want to be late for appointments

Very well.

Jos. They said it means Jesus Our Saviour.
That city is so volatile that one riot btw if carrot seller and one berom ogogoro or burukutu seller can make the city go up in flames. The level of toxicity and less value for life & properties there is alarming.

What's is there population in that state? They want to be running empty bus

Good one.

You're pained with Ramadan stuff severely like this? What of the rice shared by the southerners during Christmas?

The way to go!
