Effective Wednesday, September 21, 2022, people who board commercial vehicles will pay approximately 30% more in fares, the Concerned Drivers Association and True Drivers Union have jointly announced.
“In consultation with our mother body, the GPRTU of TUC, we wish to announce to the general public that there will be a 30% increment on fares starting September 21, 2022.”
The transport unions cited increases in prices of fuel products, spare parts, and insurance as the reasons for the upward adjustments in the fares, attributing them further to the government’s “poor management of the economy.”
While pleading with the public for their cooperation, they reiterated the high rate of inflation, which has affected the prices of a lot of commodities, hence “no option than to also increase our fares.”
“As stated earlier, we are urging the general public to cooperate with us on our new fares coming on September 21, 2022,” the statement stressed.
