Sanwo Olu rolls out 1,000 cars for taxi scheme
Lagos State governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Wednesday, rolled out the first batch of 1,000 brand-new GAC-branded automobiles, projected to be a safe, comfortable and modernised taxi scheme in the state.
The scheme, codenamed “LAGOS RIDE,” was launched at a well-attended ceremony held at the State House in Alausa.
The ride-hailing taxi initiative, which is being operated on a lease-to-own basis, is a component of the state government’s multimodal transportation blueprint being executed under the THEMES agenda of the Sanwo-Olu administration.
The initiative is a partnership between Lagos State-owned IBILE Holding Limited and CIG Motors Company Limited, with the objective to provide clean and reliable means of taxis movement across the metropolis at affordable cost, using brand-new vehicles.
