The Chairman of the Bus Management Committee (BSMC) of Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto (UDUS), Mallam Bashir Mu’azu, has explained why the university management approved the increment of transport fare for buses shuttling from bus-stop to Dandima.

Meanwhile, the committee had earlier released a notice that the bus fare had been reviewed from #100 to #150 which took effect from Wednesday, September 20, 2023.

While speaking with this reporter, Mal. Bashir said that the school approved the increment due to the cost of petrol as a result of subsidy removal and economic hardship.
