Ekiti State in Nigeria has announced a 50% reduction in transport fares, deploying 15 new CNG buses to support this initiative. The move, coinciding with Nigeria's Independence Day and the 30th anniversary of Ekiti State's creation, aims to ease financial burdens on residents as per directives from President Bola Tinubu.

Ekiti's governor, Biodun Oyebanji, emphasizes the significance of this step in making public transportation more affordable and accessible for the state's population. Originally reported by AllAfrica
