The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) is set to meet with the Transport Ministry today, April 10, 2024, to discuss proposals for a potential increase in transport fares scheduled for Saturday, April 13, 2024.
The proposed fare hike comes in response to rising fuel prices, as stated by the Concerned Drivers Association and the Transport Operators of Ghana.
The unions announced their intention to raise fares to offset the increased costs.
David Agboado, the Public Relations Officer for the Concerned Drivers Association of Ghana, confirmed in an interview with Citi News that they are standing firm on their proposal for a 20% fare increment as GPRTU meets with the government.
