The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) has announced plans to increase transport fares effective Monday October 25, 2021.
This is as a result of the rate at which fuel products are being increased arbitrarily, they said.
The Industrial Relations Officer of GPRTU, Accra branch, Alhaji Abass Imoro, said they have met with the Transport Ministry on the issue and the only thing left for them is to increase the fares by next week.
The percentage at which the increment would be done is immediately not known but according to the Union, it is as a result of the fuel price increment.
“The rate at which our fuel prices are increased, I don’t want to preempt anything because there could be another increment soon,” he stated.
