Mr Chukwuma announced that the commuting public will soon benefit from cheaper transportation through Compressed Natural Gas-powered buses.

As reported by The Punch, he also urged Nigerians to exercise patience with the President Tinubu's administration, asking them to “give him time.”

“I’ve discussed with him (President Tinubu), and soon the masses will have plenty of CNG buses on the road,” Mr Chukwuma told journalists after emerging from closed-door talks with President Tinubu on Thursday.

The automobile entrepreneur described the Presidential CNG Initiative as “the way forward” for the country.

Thursday’s meeting follows President Tinubu’s nationwide broadcast five days earlier, in which he promised to distribute “a million kits at extremely low or no cost to commercial vehicles that transport people and goods and who currently consume 80 per cent of the imported Premium Motor Spirit and Automotive Gas Oil.”
