The Executive Governor of Plateau State, Barr. Caleb Mutfwang, has assured citizens of the state of his administration’s commitment to improving their lives through the introduction of people-centric projects, programs, and policies.

Governor Mutfwang made this declaration during the official unveiling of the Tin City Metro Buses at the Government House Chapel premises in Jos, the State Capital, on Tuesday, May 7, 2024. He revealed that the launch of the City Transport initiative signifies a significant stride towards modernization and progress for the city. He emphasized that the day marks a milestone in his administration’s efforts to meet the aspirations of the state’s citizens.

At the core of the initiative, he explained, is his administration’s steadfast dedication to enhancing the daily lives of the populace, which has led to the acquisition of 15 state-of-the-art MAN-diesel buses. This move, he asserted, aims to alleviate the financial burden of intra-city travel and address the transportation challenges faced by commuters in the state.

“These buses are not mere vehicles; they are mobile hubs of innovation, equipped with the latest amenities such as Near Field Communication (NFC) and secure card payment systems. We are ushering in an era of digitized travel, aligning with the global trend towards cashless transactions for the convenience of our passengers.
