Passengers clash with trotro mate over 15% fare reduction dispute

A group of passengers confronted a ‘trotro’ mate over change.

This dispute highlighted confusion about the recent 15% fare reduction.

The Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) implemented this fare cut.

The incident happened on a commercial minibus, known as a trotro.

Passengers challenged the mate about discrepancies in their change.

This led to a brief scuffle among those involved.

The disagreement shows the challenges commuters face with new fares.

The GPRTU aimed to ease transport costs for Ghanaians with this reduction.

However, uncertainty remains among drivers, mates, and passengers about fares.

Many are confused about correct fare calculations and payments.

This situation highlights the need for better communication between unions and commuters.

Transport authorities urge patience from everyone during this transition period.
