Mr Yekeen said the development was due to operational challenges being faced by the firm along the corridor.

“The Primero Transport Services Ltd uses this medium to inform our commuters on Ikorodu to TBS corridor that we are shutting down operations from March 31, due to operational challenges.

“We hope to resolve it in the next couple of days and resume full operations.
