Hundreds of passengers were yesterday stranded along the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) road over new rules rolled out for airport cabs and limousine operators by the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN).
According to sources, only 34 out of the....
500 cab and limousine operators have complied with the new rules set by FAAN, which requires them to acquire relatively newer vehicles painted in new colours before plying the airport road.
From the Medical Road axis of Ikeja, where the operators have a park, only a few had complied with the newer car regulation, which mandates them to get vehicles of year 2,000 models and above.
The newer vehicles are to be registered with FAAN commercial department and painted in dark blue colours.
As a result of the limited number of vehicles on the road, fares were increased to N100 for some routes, where the operators charge N50.
From the Medical Road axis, many commuters trekked about two kilometres to get to both the old, new and international terminals .
