The Abia State Government has officially introduced the Abia Connect Card, a smart and cashless payment system for all Abia Green Shuttle Services across the state.


This initiative, driven by the reform agenda of His Excellency, the People’s Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex C. Otti , OFR, is designed to modernise public transportation, eliminate cash handling, and ensure a seamless commuter experience.


The Abia Connect Card is easy to use . Commuters are to simply tap their card on the payment device when boarding and wait for the “Welcome” confirmation sound to validate successful payment.


The first card is currently free. However, a ₦50 charge applies to every top-up. The card does not expire, and funds do not expire. Each card is valid for one person per trip and can be used across all approved Green Shuttle routes in the state.


Residents can obtain the card at any designated Central Bus Terminal, including Ariaria Junction, MCC, Osisioma Flyover, Tonimas, PH Road Aba First Bus Stop (Cemetery), Ala Oji Flyover, Ebem Park, Abiriba Junction, Akara Junction and Uzuakoli. Note that an ABSSIN is required for registration.


The Abia Connect Card represents another bold step towards a structured, technology-driven and transparent transport system in Abia State.


A new Abia is here . Abia is moving forward.Abia is going digital and staying connected.
