ABC Transport Lagos Owerri recent customer reviews

The journey was the worst ever since I started boarding for traveling. The ABC transport didn't provide the facilities promised, no AC, fan, or even enough windows for ventilation. We were just packed in like dried fishes, we had 2 near suffocation of passengers, everyone was removing their clothes. Weak bus, weak driver, and terrible customer service. Very very sluggish on top that it broke down in the middle of nowhere where armed robbery usually occurs at night.
