In a TikTok video, she offered a glimpse of both the exterior and interior of the electric buses, which are reportedly introduced by UNILAG to enhance transportation for students on campus. Eyes Of Lagos reports,
She captioned the video: “And it’s only 100 naira! Plus, there are like four doors!”
Expressing her surprise, she added, “So UNILAG electric buses are real? Does this mean campus drivers will be out of business?”
