Commendation for Nairaxi Transit Card Initiative

A civic group has commended the Tinubu–Shettima administration for backing the Nairaxi transit card program, describing it as a step toward easing mobility costs for commuters. The initiative aims to streamline fare payments, reduce cash handling, and introduce discounts for frequent riders. Advocates say transparent rollout, clear eligibility rules, and robust consumer protection will be critical to public trust. They encourage interoperable systems across cities and integration with digital wallets to expand access for low-income users and students.
