The Lagos State Government, through LAGBUS and its franchises,
said it would provide free bus rides to residents on Friday, to
commemorate this year’s Christmas celebration.
This is contained in a press statement signed by Yemi Adesoye,
the LAGBUS Public Relations Officer, which was made available to journalists in
Lagos.
According to the statement, the move is aimed at promoting the
use of public transportation, as well as reducing congestion on Lagos roads
during the festivities.
The statement said the free bus rides would cut across parts of
the metropolis, within the operational hours of 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
It said that the free bus services would ensure that
fewer vehicles were on the roads during the period, appealing to motorists not
to drink and drive to prevent avoidable accidents, which usually occurred
during celebrations.
While wishing residents a Merry Christmas, the LAGBUS management
commended them for their unflinching patronage.
