Daniel Bwala, who serves as the special assistant to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on policy communication, has turned to X (which was once known as Twitter) to make the announcement that the president has given his approval for free transport services throughout the whole country beginning on December 20th, 2024 and continuing until January 5th, 2025.
An official spokesperson for the president said that the program is intended to assist in lowering the cost of transportation during this season, as stated in a post that was published on the official X account of Daniel Bwala. In addition, he said that the transport services would be accessible in certain cities around the country, exactly as they were in the previous year.
The following is an excerpt from a letter that Daniel Bwala had written: “I am thrilled to share that President Tinubu has approved free transport services nationwide from December 20th to January 5th.” It is important to remember that a program quite similar to this one was developed during the holiday season of the previous year and was enthusiastically received by Nigerians in some places around the country. The purpose of this program is to assist Nigerians in reducing the amount of money they spend on transit over the holiday season.
