Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, says the state would be rolling out 50 electric buses for passenger operations.
According to the governor, the rollout of the buses is in the pilot phase following the completion of proof of concept on the feasibility of the use of non-combustible engines as a substitute for fuel-powered vehicles in 2024.

This, the Governor stressed, would enable Lagos to progress in its zero-carbon programme, with the expectation of becoming an emission-neutral city by 2050.
Governor Sanwo-Olu was speaking while commissioning the fourth flyover constructed along the Lagos Rail Mass Transit red line corridor, signifying the near completion of the 37-kilometer rail network connecting Lagos and Ogun states.
