The Federal Government has reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable transportation and cutting carbon emissions. Minister of State for Industry, Sen. John Enoh, emphasized this while unveiling the NEV T6 electric buses in Abuja, as stated in a release on Saturday. He highlighted that electric vehicles represent the future and assured that Nigeria is prepared for the transition. The newly introduced NEV T6 electric buses aim to reduce reliance on fossil fuels while ensuring cleaner, more affordable, and efficient public transport. The minister noted that the initiative supports the government’s goal of achieving 30% growth in electric mobility under the National Automotive Industrial Development Plan. Enoh described the launch as a major milestone in transforming Nigeria’s automotive industry. He said, “A lot of Nigerians look at electric vehicles as impossible. I mean, people are not able to accommodate that in their heads. And I think that is what is required to make a success in life, to start from a point of impossibility. “Nigeria is such a big and great country. When we talk about China and India, we should also talk about Nigeria and all the advantages that Nigeria brings. And I think that people like you are taking the most advantage of that. “Yes, electric vehicles are the future. But electric vehicles, that future starts today. We must promote that future today and try to make sure that we achieve it because we are ready for it. “This launch goes beyond introducing buses; it is about embracing innovation to ensure Nigeria remains competitive in the global automotive industry.”
