President Bola Tinubu has promised that Nigerians will pay less for transport from October 2026.

This was disclosed in a statement by Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, on Saturday.

The development is an update on the National Affordable Compressed Natural Gas, CNG, Transit Programme.

“On August 27, I met with the governors of our 36 states, and we agreed on a clear objective. From October 1, more Nigerians should begin to see measurable reductions in transportation costs.

“We subsequently established an implementation committee for the National Affordable CNG Transit Programme under the auspices of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, chaired by Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.

“I am aware of the considerable work already underway by the committee, PI-CNG & EV, the States, and other critical stakeholders to identify priority transport corridors, determine appropriate interventions, and put the necessary arrangements in place.

“This work has become even more urgent amid the current global energy crisis,” the statement said.
