Last year, Mr. Frank Nneji was honoured with an award by the auto world as the Auto Personality of the Year 2004. Any person who is an observer in the travel and tourism industry would agree he surely deserved it. It is worthy of mention that the name, Mr. Frank Nneji, has become especially synonymous with premium luxury road transportation in Nigeria and the West African sub-region. He is the brain box of ABC Transport Limited.

Yes, ABC Transport. No doubt, this Company has distinguished itself as the most popular brand in the coach passenger service industry of Nigeria. So, it came as no surprise at all that on the 27th of October, 2005 at the Investiture/ Induction of Council of the Aba Chamber of Commerce, Mines and Agriculture (ACCIMA), one of the internationally-acclaimed Chambers of Commerce in Nigeria, bestowed an Award of Excellence in Business on Mr. Frank Nneji, the Managing Director of ABC Transport. This Award was engendered by his unwavering drive and contribution to the economic growth of Nigeria and West Africa in the area of efficient transport delivery.

It is on record that the advent of ABC Transport marked a turning point in the industry, giving the coach operation a human corporate look as against its previous agbero outlook that was rife then. It is also on record that Mr. Nneji, using his acumen as a seasoned, hardworking and experienced businessman, by positioning Rapido Ventures as a leading name in manufacturing and marketing of presentation, training and audio-visual equipments across the West African sub region, spurred the modern-day innovations in the system of road transportation in Nigeria.

One would then readily attest that tantly provided quality services across the country in the area of transport through the implementation of a quality management system of the company, a man who has, in lucid terms, revolutionized luxury bus operation, a man who has evidently painted his name across the face of the skies!.

Receiving the award on behalf of the MD/CEO, the General Manager (Operations) of ABC Transport, Mr. Desmond Amiegbebhor, thanked ACCIMA for this award as a treasure and as something to motivate us to action at difficult moments. He further enthused that the award is a big encouragement, challenge and morale booster.

Meanwhile, his Company, ABC Transport, won for itself the enviable award for Best Land Transporter of the Year 2005 at the recently held 9th Travellers Awards and Exhibition on Saturday, 29th October 2005 at the Eko Hotel & Suites. Another worthy award that was bestowed on the Company, some months ago, was that of the Award for Excellence in Transport Management, which was conferred by the Chartered Institute of Accountants (ICAN), Owerri.

Over the years, ABC Transport has persistently strove to maintain a record of excellent services, and this singular motif has endeared this innovative Company to thousands of Nigeria across various parts of the country. ABC Transport has, also, remained essentially customer-oriented, and this has been and still is evident in its characteristic desire to satisfy long distance travels within and outside the country.

As part of its preparation to satisfy its teeming customers towards a successful Yuletide celebration, ABC Transport has expanded its fleet by taking delivery of an additional 5 trucks, made up of Mercedes and Mitsubishi brands. This, therefore, brings it to a truck fleet capacity of over eighteen. Expectedly, the customers will now enjoy more premium services for they are assured of faster service delivery and carriage of goods across the nation.
