GPRTU SET TO INCREASE FARES AGAIN

The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) says it will be adjusting transportation fares upwards.

According to the Union, the move has become inevitable following a series of increments of fuel prices at the pumps.

Transport fares had gone up last month, triggering another rise in the rate of inflation. Meanwhile, fuel prices will also go up again this Thursday.

Meanwhile the Union’s Spokesperson, Abass Imoro says Ghanaians should prepare for the looming increment in transport fares. This increment will be the third of its kind this year. Following the hike in fuel prices, the Union made up of both commercial and private drivers and other stakeholders has called on government to scrap some taxes on fuel to cushion consumers.
