Lagos is a big brother to all states in Nigeria. The nation’s commercial capital city can best be described as a nation in Nigeria. The Lagos state governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode recently unveiled the Lagos Bus Reform Initiative, according to the governor,
He said the Bus Reform Initiative is a three-year plan aimed at introducing over 5000 air-conditioned buses to replace the yellow commercial buses, popularly called Danfo, which according to him, was no longer befitting for the State’s mega city status.
“We decided that the best thing is to allow the yellow buses go and so the Bus Reform Initiative itself is a three-year plan of 2017 to 2019 in which it intends to bring in new buses of 5,000 units in the three-year plan.
AutoReportNG was privileged to have exclusive access to the images and interior of the new BRT buses that will replace the danfos in Lagos. The buses were made by a Chinese firm and they made cars and buses for auto firms and industries. The pictures were taken from the assembly plant somewhere in Lagos.
These buses were meant to take about 36 passengers at a go.
