(PROTOCOLS)
It is with immense pleasure and profound gratitude to the Almighty God that I stand before you on this momentous occasion. Today, we celebrate a milestone in our administration's quest to fulfill the aspirations of our cherished citizens of Plateau State. We gather to mark a transformative step in our beloved city's march towards modernity and progress—the unveiling of the Tin City Metro Urban Transportation Initiative.
At the core of this initiative is our unwavering commitment to improving the daily lives of our people. We have procured 15 state-of-the-art MAN-Diesel buses, a move aimed at mitigating the costs of intra-city travel and providing a respite from the daily transportation challenges our commuters face.
These buses are not mere vehicles; they are mobile hubs of innovation, equipped with the latest amenities such as Near Field Communication (NFC) and secure card payment systems. We are ushering in an era of digitized travel, aligning with the global shift towards cashless transactions for the convenience of our passengers.
Safety and oversight are the cornerstones of our transportation network. To this end, we have integrated comprehensive video monitoring systems with audio/video feeds on each bus. This measure guarantees the safety of our passengers and instills a culture of accountability and transparency within our operations.
The Tin City Metro Urban Transportation Initiative is more than a transportation project; it is a catalyst for community development. It is expected to generate between 500 to 1000 job opportunities, fueling economic growth and fostering development across the state. This initiative is about propelling our city into a future of prosperity and advancement.
I want to reassure the people of Plateau State of our administration's dedication to exemplary leadership. Guided by principles of integrity, character, the fear of God, and a deep-seated love for our state, we will continue to introduce initiatives that alleviate economic burdens and elevate your quality of life for the greater glory.
Our government will remain steadfast in its adherence to due process, accountability, transparency, equity, and the rule of law. I call upon all traders and citizens to collaborate with our officials who strive to maintain a clean and healthy environment for us all. Rest assured, every decision made by this government is with your best interest at heart.
In conclusion, I call on all stakeholders, including leaders of MDAs, government parastatals, and appointees, to champion this transformative initiative. Leadership is not just about envisioning change; it is about being an active participant in its realization.
A tangible expression of our commitment is the adoption of metro travel cards for our staff. This initiative not only provides them with dependable transportation but also embodies our collective resolve to enhance the lives of every citizen, irrespective of their role.
The time for action is now. Let us unite, set aside our differences, and wholeheartedly support government policies for the advancement and prosperity of Plateau State. It is now my honour and privilege to proceed to commission the Tincity Metro Buses.
Thank you, and may God continue to bless us all.
