Wobin said that the decision became necessary for easy identification of school buses by the FRSC, adding that it will be well for proprietors to paint their school buses in the approved colour.

The fact that we have not enforce it does not mean we are not going to do it, the information has been in public domain since 2014,” he said.

According to him, there is a prototype of the colour in the headquarters of the FRSC, while advising them to check in order to be sure of the approved colour.

He said that identification of school buses was keyed, stating that the FRSC had had to intercept a bus with kidnapped school children, with the driver claiming they were going on excursion.

The sector commander added that if it were to be a uniform coloured bus, the corps would have been able to detect immediately.

He then urged the proprietors to ensure a uniform colour for their school buses.
