“In fulfilment of our electioneering promise to provide affordable means of transportation, we are here to unveil new buses to ease difficulties faced by the public,” the governor said before tasking managers of Borno Express to inculcate a sustainable maintenance strategy that would ensure all vehicles remain functional.

Zulum directed the state’s ministry of transport to liaise with the ministry of justice and other relevant stakeholders to ensure sanity in the operations of commercial tricycles.
