The Federal Government has unveiled 20 high-tech buses powered by compressed natural gas (CNG) for civil servants in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The head of the civil service of the federation, Folashade Yemi-Esan, presented the buses at an event held in Abuja.
She said the initiative was a collaboration with FEMADEC Group, a private engineering and construction company, adding that the project was part of the efforts towards improving the welfare of civil servants in Abuja.
She said the gas-powered buses would provide efficient, affordable, and safe transportation, moving civil servants to and from their workplaces, especially those living within the FCT and its environs.
Yemi-Esan said easing the transportation burden of civil servants had been one of the targets of the present administration.
According to him, the government has always sought ways to achieve a healthier and safer environment for civil servants.
“This pillar is targeted at addressing issues of the socio-economic wellbeing of civil servants, which, if not tackled holistically, can impede workers’ efficiency,” she said.
She also said, “The number of buses will be scaled up to 40 in the second phase of the project.”
