OAU NEW TRANSPORT PRICES
Fuel Hike: OAU SUG Approves New Transport Fares 2024

The OAU Students Union Government has Approved New Transportation  Fares around the campus. Following a series of meetings with the leaders of the transport unions (Town gboro), we are pleased to announce the temporary agreed transport prices for students.

These prices have been set to ensure fairness and prevent extortion by drivers. We urge students to familiarize themselves with these new prices to avoid overcharging and to report any driver or bike operator who refuses to comply with the new prices.

See banner Above for New OAU Transport fares

It is important to note that these prices are temporary, given the current economic situation. Both the union and transport leaders have agreed to reconvene and review the rate should the price of petrol decrease in the future.

In the meantime, we strongly advise all students to adhere strictly to the official price guidelines as provided by the Students’ Union. Students are to pay only the stipulated amounts and are encouraged to report any violations.

In cases of aggressive behavior from violators, students should avoid confrontation. Instead, record the Cartrec number or vehicle plate number and promptly report the incident to the Union.

We remain committed to protecting the interests of students and ensuring a peaceful, fair transport system on our campus.
