He noted that staff of the scheme and corps members serving in the scheme have always complained that it was difficult for them transporting themselves to and from office.
Chief Executive Officer, Capital Express Insurance company, Mr. Matthew Ogwezhi, on his part said the scheme and his company have been in partnership for a while and the donation was part of the partnership to support the activities of the scheme.
He said the company made the donation to support the staff transportation to and from work as the price of fuel and transportation was expensive in the Abuja metropolis.
