COMMERCIAL BUS DRIVERS AND CONDUCTORS IN LAGOS TO WEAR UNIFORM

Commercial bus drivers and conductors in Lagos will soon begin to wear uniform and badges and owners of such buses will have their identities aboard the vehicles. The state Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Kayode Opeifa, while briefing journalists on the activities of the ministry in the last 365 days, said, “The transport unions have agreed on the type of uniform and the badges they will give to the commercial bus drivers and their conductors. The identities of the owners (owners’ cards) of the commercial buses will also be aboard these buses.”

The commercial bus drivers must be re-certified by attending the drivers’ institute, where they will undergo comprehensive tests  -  including vision and driving tests. Not a bad idea at all.
