Akwa Ibom Govt Approves Modern City Bus System for Uyo Metropolis.

The Akwa Ibom State Government has approved a modern city bus transportation system for Uyo, designed to provide safe, reliable, and eco-friendly transport while enhancing accessibility and driving economic growth.

The announcement was made by Governor Umo Eno via his official X (formerly Twitter) account on Thursday.

According to the governor, this decision was one of the major resolutions reached during the recent Executive Council meeting, presided over by him alongside the Deputy Governor, Senator Akon Eyakenyi, and other key officials.

 

“Yesterday, I presided over the Executive Council meeting alongside the Deputy Governor, Sen. Akon Eyakenyi, the Secretary to the State Government, the Head of Civil Service, Commissioners, and Special Advisers. After extensive deliberations, we reached key resolutions aimed at enhancing governance and improving the lives of the Akwa Ibom people. 

Some of the major decisions include: 

“Approval of a modern City Bus transportation system for Uyo metropolis to provide safe, reliable, and eco-friendly transport, boosting accessibility and economic growth,” Gov. Eno’s tweet read in part.  

The governor, however, did not provide further details on the approved modern bus transportation system to be implemented in the capital city of Uyo.

The timeline for the rollout of the modern city buses, along with specific implementation details, is expected to be announced in the coming weeks.
