The bill is titled, \u201cAn Act to provide a framework for the promotion, protection, provision of safety, and enforcement of the rights and obligations of commercial commuters in Nigeria and for other related matters, 2023.\u201d<\/p>\n
While presenting the bill, Halims said that its objectives were to ensure that the safety, comfort, and rights of commuters were prioritized.<\/p>\n
According to him, the bill sought to ensure that commuters\u2019s rights and dignity were promoted and protected, stressing that it would ensure a national passenger protection plan.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will include insurance coverage for road, rail, and water transport,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He further stated that the bill would ensure that commercial transporters provide insurance coverage for their passengers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis will come through a subscription to premium insurance coverage that could facilitate making claims under the National Passengers Protection Plan.<\/p>\n
\u201cI once again solicit your support to allow the bill to be read a second time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
