During the 2026 AGM in Abuja, President Yusuf Othman announced the deployment of new CNG-powered vehicles to enhance operational capacity.

The initiative aims to provide safer and more affordable mass transit, with additional vehicles expected soon. Othman also highlighted ongoing collaborations with security agencies and the Lagos State Government for fleet improvements.
