The African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate in Gombe State, Bala Bello Tinka, has promised to lift the night-time ban on commercial motorcycle operations if elected. The ban, imposed by Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya in June 2025, restricts operations from 7:00 PM to 6:00 AM in Gombe metropolis and environs to reduce crime. Tinka stated that he would restore 24-hour Achaba operations, citing the livelihoods of thousands of young people and the transportation needs of residents. He made the pledge while addressing supporters across Gombe metropolis.
