This was disclosed by the State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Fred Itua, on Tuesday.

This initiative will also take place through the Edo City Transport Service, and will cover Benin metropolis and the three Senatorial Districts of the state (Intra and Intercity routes).

The statement reads in part, “The bus services will ease the transportation stress. Our people who plan to move around within the Benin metropolis and out will be able to do that without any extra financial burdens.

“Edo Central, like Ekpoma, Iruekpen, Irrua, Uromi, and other places, are also part of the routes the free transportation services will cover.

“Edo North is fully captured. Agbede, Auchi, Okpella, Fugar, and other parts of Edo North are covered in the free transportation scheme of Governor Monday Okpebholo.”
