The Managing Director of Primero Transport Services Limited, Fola Tinubu, has been announced as the Chairman of the inaugural JustAlive Communications Transport Summit, scheduled to take place on October 29, 2025, in Lagos. The one-day event aims to unite leaders and stakeholders across Nigeria’s transport and logistics sectors to discuss innovation and sustainability in the nation’s transport infrastructure.
The summit, themed “Nigeria’s Transport Infrastructure: Innovation for a Sustainable Future,” will also feature Dr. Segun Musa, Managing Director of Widescope Logistics Limited, as the keynote speaker. Organisers say the event will provide a rare platform for government officials, private sector players, and transport experts to collaborate on practical solutions that can redefine Nigeria’s transport landscape.
