A group calling itself Online Drivers Union of Ghana has withdrawn its services as part of a demonstration against what it described as “modern-day slavery” by ride-hailing companies.
The group whose members work with Uber, Bolt, Yango and First Class, accused the companies of reducing trip fares despite hike in fuel prices, which affect their sales.
The group on Tuesday marched through some principal streets of Kumasi to drum home their demands.
Some of the drivers expressed their frustration about the poor condition of service, adding that they will not call off the strike until their concerns are addressed.
