Following the success of its bus launch in Egypt, Uber is planning to introduce its bus transportation system in West Africa’s business hub, Lagos.

The Silicon Valley-based firm said it already in talks with city transport officials in the city.

A few months ago, Uber’s chief business officer, Brook Entwistle visited Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu to discuss how the company could get approval and collaborate with the state to reduce traffic gridlock and provide a better public bus transportation system for the people.

The ride-hailing giant has been trying to diversify its services beyond the provision of car-hailing to other services like food, considering financial services.

UberBus is a new way to enjoy a comfortable, safe, and convenient commute in Cairo. There’s no need to wait to hail down and squeeze onto a crowded bus. The Uber Bus app lets you reserve your seat on an air-conditioned bus that frequently run along popular routes so there is always a ride nearby. The Uber Bus app works on all android devices and in all network conditions.
