Residents of Ede and environs were in jubilant mood on the arrival of the ‘Imole De Buses’ in the ancient town to cushion the effect of the removal of fuel subsidy on the people.

 

The residents who were seen entering the buses to their various destinations described the gesture from the State government as a good one, because of the hardship the removal of subsidy on Petroleum products have caused.

 

They echoed that the intervention has gone a long way in saving people from transportation hardship which they noted as very key to the success or otherwise of Small and Meduim Scale businesses.

 

Speaking, Mr Taofeek Jolaade who said he joined the bus at Cottage junction,Ede heading towards Oke-Gada also in Ede explained that the bus has really saved him a lot of transportation cost on a daily basis.

 

Also speaking, a student of Seventh Day Adeventist Grammar School, Rukayat Adesina said the ‘Imole De Buses’ have really helped a lot since it commenced operation in Ede.

 

She explained further that she ensures to wait for the bus every morning while going to school as well as during closing time because of the meager transport fare her parents could afford to give her.

 

Miss Rukayat then prayed for the Governor as well as the members of staff of the Ministry of Transportation for wisdom and the financial capacity to continue with the good gesture.

 

Meanwhile, Osun State Commissioner for Transportation, Hon. Sesan Oyedele has hinted that anytime from now, it will be the turn of Ile-Ife and Modakeke, to enjoy the services of the ‘Imole De Buses’.
