  • The government, through President Tinubu's Renewed Hope initiative, has launched free rides in Abuja for 40 days. FG handed 15 CNG-powered buses to transport unions.

The Nigerian government, under President Bola Tinubu, has launched a free bus ride initiative in Abuja to alleviate the economic pressures faced by residents due to the removal of fuel subsidies. This initiative, which began on December 11, 2023, offers free transportation on 13 routes operated by the Abuja Urban Mass Transport Company (AUMTCO) until January 7, 2024. The move aims to provide relief to the public during the festive season, with the government covering the costs of fuel and maintenance for the buses. This program is part of broader efforts to cushion the impact of economic reforms, including the distribution of palliatives and other support measures. The initiative has been met with jubilation from Abuja residents, who appreciate the government's effort to ease their transportation burdens during this period.
