The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) has increased its Bus Reform Initiative (BRI) scheme fare by 18 percent.
The agency disclosed this on its official social media platform on Thursday.
“Please be informed that there will be an 18 percent increase in the bus fare on all Bus Reform Initiative schemes,” the statement read.
“The fare rise is because of the increase in the cost of operations and the need to ensure that buses keep running and guarantee your movement around Lagos.
“The new fare will take effect from Monday (17 February).
“We seek your understanding and cooperation.”
