The ministry of transport also urged the Bus companies to repair and maintain/ Service their Buses before engaging to any long distance. The mechanical breakdown are mostly caused by lack of maintenance and service to the Buses. One of the officials from NTSA said, “The Buses travel for a very long distances without being serviced for long periods hence made them unable to accomplish the required tasks. That is why some buses burn without being noticed and others cause accidents. “
