The number of automobiles in President Muhammadu Buhari's convoy has been reduced. Gistmania gathered that the president will now move in a motorcade of about 12 vehicles,This is all part of the current administration's plan to reduce the cost of governance. Goodluck Jonathan, the former president of Nigeria, had a convoy of about 23 cars.The Senate president, Bukola Saraki and the Speaker of the House of Representative, Yakubu Dogara continued to maintain 10 vehicles in their motorcades each while ministers have a maximum of four vehicles in their motorcade. It was reported that the president urged his ministers to avoid long motorcades and long protocol.The president’s convoy included eight Mercedes cars, two BMW cars, one black Range Rover Sports Utility Vehicle, and one pick-up vehicle of the Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC). The president had earlier rejected N400 million worth of cars when he took over stressing that he would use the ones left by the former president. The Senate president’s convoy includes a Mercedes Benz S500, one staff car, and the other one serves as spare, two security vehicles, two jeeps, and two other cars that ferry his aides.The Speakers convoy includes two S600 V12 Mercedes Benz which serve as the staff cars, two Land Cruiser SUVs, two police Hilux vans, one Camry LE and a Peugeot 406. There are also two dispatch riders that usually move in front of the speaker’s convoy. It was also observed that the ministers have also reduced their convoy with Babatunde Fashola, the minister of power, works and housing having a convoy of three Land Cruiser SUVs and one Prado SUV
