Korasabi disclosed that the government has resolved yellow colour with green stripes for all transporters working on shuttle buses and tricycles as intra-state transport while green with the stripe of white will be the identity for inter-state vehicles.

Subject to this announcement, the commissioner said it has become imperative for all transport unions to comply with the new state colour codes unanimously adopted on Wednesday, 14th May, 2025.

“Transporters will have till 30th of September, 2025 for full compliance, after which, violation to the rule shall attract serious sanctions”, he added.

Permanent Secretary of the ministry, Alh. Kabir Salahu lauded the leadership of the road transport unions for their cooperation with the government, assuring them of the ministry’s maximum support.

Chairman of Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN) in the state, Alh.

For their parts, the chairman of Tricycle Owners Association of Nigeria (TOAN), Alh.
