The Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) has announced the cessation of the 25% discount on transport fares across the entire Lagos State Public Transport System, starting from Sunday, January 28, 2024.
In a public notice issued on Friday through its official X (formerly Twitter) account, LAMATA advised Lagosians to take note of the change and to make the necessary preparations for the resumption of regular transport fare rates that were in place before the adjustment made in December.
“The 25% rebate on regulated public transport buses, ferry and train ends on Sunday, 28th January 2024.
“From Monday, 29th January 2024, transport fare on regulated services return to 100%.
Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu had on the 31st of July 2023 announced a 50% rebate as a palliative measure against the effect of fuel subsidy removal and had ran for six months.”
