STUDENTS who do not have funds in their bus cards will not be able to use bus services from today, says the Fiji Bus Operators Association (FBOA).

FBOA president Nisar Ali Shah said in a statement that thousands of students had not received their travel funds from the Ministry of Education over the past three days.

“Numerous operators have had to carry these students for free,” Mr Shah said.
