Some members of the public have called on transport unions to be ‘clear’ on the percentage increment of transport fares.
“It seems every union wants to determine its increment individually and this is very worrying,” some public transport users told the Ghana News Agency in an interview and pleaded for a single percentage increment that cuts for all.
Ms Faustina Nyarko, a Pupil Teacher, said the increments were not in uniformity as it had been done always.
She observed that the inconsistency was creating problems for passengers and drivers and appealed to stakeholders to intervene in time.
Mr Ahmmed Ayittey, a Trader, said despite the misunderstanding regarding the increment, he would stick to paying the old price until the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) announced any increment.
