Gov Inuwa Defends Subsidy On Public Transportation News
In a statement issued yesterday, Gara said the governor has provided 80 new buses to the state transport company known as Gombe State Transport Service in the last three years to facilitate the movement of people, goods and services to and from the state.
According to him, the key responsibility of the government is public security and welfare adding that public welfare includes provision of social amenities and making life easy, better and comfortable for the citizens. “Public transportation is one cardinal sector that affects the lives of all the citizens. There will be no significant development in any society where there is no movement of people, goods and services in and out of it.
“Mindful of the challenges faced by the public in terms of transportation, Gombe State governor Inuwa Yahaya deemed it good to come up with interventions and projects to boost and further subsidize public transportation in the state. One of such gestures was revamping the state mass transit corporation otherwise known as ‘Gombe State Transport Service’.
