Galaxy Transportation and Construction Services has promised to revive the transportation scheme at Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, which is in comatose.
The Managing Director, Babagana Dalori made the pledge in Abuja after receiving the ‘Humanitarian Icon’ award by ABU Students Union Representative Council.
Dalori, who commended the council for finding him worthy of the award, said there was need to try as much as possible to stimulate greater innovative minds towards growing the Nigerian economy.
“While I accept this recognition as a humanitarian icon, it is my sincere hope that I will endeavour to enhance and be of great support to Nigerian youths with great abilities and entrepreneurial acumen taking in cognisance their high ethical values at all times, as well as appreciate the greater commitment and of responsibility to the growth of our economy and service to humanity.”
He added: “On your request for proper transportation scheme in ABU, by the grace of God, our company will ensure that smooth transportation system is established. What we will establish at ABU is going to be in such a way that the beneficiaries of the profit coming from the transport system are the students because we want to make it in a way that any student who so wishes to invest in that transportation system will buy a seat in the bus, whatever the seat generates, the profit goes to whoever invested in that seat.
“After a period of time when investors must have gotten their profits, we will also come up with a plan where the driver because he has worked so hard, we will make a room for him also to own the bus.
