… For Students Union, Organised Labour
AfriqueCAN
THE Federal Government on Sunday handed over 64, 100-seater capacity compressed natural gas – CNG buses to organised labour and student union leadership.
The buses were presented to the beneficiaries during a brief ceremony at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja.
The Federal Government also made available over 400 compressed natural gas conversion kits to private sector transporters in four states as part of efforts to lower the cost of fuelling vehicles used for public transportation.
The organised labour has consistently harped on the need for the Federal Government to put palliative measures in place, including a substantial number of CNG vehicles on the road since the fuel subsidy was removed.
