This policy, while well-intentioned, may struggle to deliver immediate relief if implementation is marred by inefficiency, inflated figures and corruption.
Nigeria should consider the @nairaxi_nigeria Direct Digital Transit Subsidy model:
• Tap-to-pay NFC cards subsidise actual passenger trips directly
• Nigerians invest in new buses while government regulates fares
• Every subsidised trip is digitally recorded, creating measurable KPIs and reducing leakages
• Investors operate under a structured 3-year framework, targeting up to 50% ROI, subject to performance, with buses transferred to government at exit
• Government spends on verified journeys, not blanket subsidies
• Commuters receive immediate, measurable fare relief
• Private capital expands public transport without government carrying the full upfront cost
The objective should not simply be cheaper fuel. It should be cheaper, traceable and accountable transportation for Nigerians.

@maxvayshia We can’t keep dragging our feet while citizens struggle daily with rising costs and inefficiencies that slow down economic growth. Dangote has shown, through his projects, what is possible when vision is backed with decisive action. The same drive is what we expect from the govt.
“CNG truck deployment shows what’s possible with urgency and strategy. The FG should borrow from Dangote’s playbook to tackle Nigeria’s problems faster.”
