TOAN Complies with Kwara's Commercial Vehicle Colour Code Directive, Sets Example for Unions
In compliance with the Kwara State Government's directive requiring commercial vehicles to adopt new colour codes for enhanced citizen safety, the Tricycle Owners Association of Nigeria (TOAN) has formally presented its newly branded tricycles to the Ministry of Transportation.
The handover occurred during a courtesy visit to Transportation Commissioner Hon. Lafia Aliyu Korasabi, who praised TOAN's swift adherence to the regulations. He stated: "We commend TOAN's leadership for setting the pace. This supports our efforts to ensure commuter safety across the state."
Hon. Korasabi reiterated the government's mandate for all commercial vehicle operators-including those under the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN), National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW), and National Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO)-to adopt the white and green colour scheme within the stipulated timeframe.
"As a government committed to the safety and well-being of our people, we expect full compliance across the board," he emphasized.
The Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Alhaji Salau Kabir Abdullahi, also praised TOAN for its proactive approach, describing the Association as reliable and responsive.
He assured the group of the state government's continued support in addressing challenges faced by transport operators.
In his remarks, the Chairman of TOAN, Saliu Gidado, said the presentation of the newly painted tricycles was a demonstration of the Association's unwavering support for Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq's administration.
He applauded the government's urban development initiatives, particularly the ongoing road reconstruction projects, which he noted have significantly reduced vehicle maintenance costs and travel time for transporters and commuters across the state.
