The Ghana Private Road Transport Unit (GPRTU) says a meeting with the Ministry of Transport on Tuesday, April 12 would determine the percentage increase in transport fares.
According to the union, negotiations by a delegation from the ministry got them to withdraw their announcement until final engagements with the government.
Speaking to Citi News, the Industrial Relations Officer of GPRTU, Abass Imoro said, the union is proposing an additional 15% increment in transport fares.
“Since we are postponing it, we intend to come out with nothing less than 15% but for now we haven’t officially announced it. We have swallowed it until after Tuesday’s meeting,” he said.
The association then encouraged its members to sail through these hard times together because they know there’s is hope.
“We are cautioning all drivers to abide by all road protocols to help decrease the fatal accident on roads.
