Transport Ministry Talks Fare Increase with GPRTU Today
Transport Union
Written By : Francisca Nana Owubah


Today, the Transport Ministry is sitting down with the Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) to chat about a possible 20% bump in transport fares. This convo comes after GPRTU sent in a request, saying they need the increase because of higher costs and the COVID-19 situation hitting them hard.

This idea of hiking up fares has got people talking! Some folks are worried about how it might squeeze their wallets even more, while others think maybe there's a better way to go about it to keep things fair for everyone.

At the meeting, they'll be hashing out why GPRTU wants this fare bump and brainstorming solutions to deal with the transport sector's problems. The Transport Ministry says they're all ears, listening to what everyone's got to say before making any moves.

So, stay tuned to see what shakes out from this meeting and whether fares are heading up or staying put."
