MSU Students Get ZUPCO Bus -Report
Midlands State University (MSU) and the Zimbabwe United Passenger Company (ZUPCO) have reached a deal that will see a bus being introduced on the city-Senga route for students only.
This was revealed by students representative council president Gift Sibanda, who said the bus will help cushion students from exorbitant transport fares. Said Sibanda:
When we were campaigning, we promised to stand with students in all the problems faced and we are hoping to tackle every problem despite the economic challenges. Students should, however, be patient as the institution is not spared of the economic challenges.
Commuter omnibuses reportedly charge ZWL$ $3 to 4 for the short distance from the city to senga. The fares go up after 7 pm making life difficult for the students.
