Over the past few weeks, there have been consistent increases in the price of fuel at the pumps, a situation many drivers have described as insensitive.
According to concerned drivers, the increments affect their profit margins leading to hardship in their individual livelihoods.
As a result, the Coalition of Transport Operators have disclosed that starting from Monday, February 7, transport fares will be increased by 30%.
Speaking in an interview with Accra-based Citi News, the Public Relations Officer of the Concerned Drivers Association, David Agboado, hinted that passengers should expect an upward adjustment of transport fares, starting from February 7, after a meeting with the sector Minister, Kwaku Ofori Asiamah.
Tonight on PM Express, host Evans Mensah and his panel will explore the justification for such a hike and its impact on the economy.
