Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 62157, member: 636"] Ghana Private Road Transport Union officials rejected claims about nationwide transport fare increases on Saturday. Volta Regional Vice Chairman Lawrence Awilo Attitoe stated the union held no meetings with government authorities regarding proposed price changes. Fuel costs jumped from GH₵11.23 to GH₵14.63 per liter, but drivers maintain current rates. The union emphasized its role as the sole recognized transport operator organization. Alliance of Drivers Ghana announced different plans for 20 percent fare hikes on Saturday, September 27, 2025. Driver groups cited rising maintenance expenses, spare parts costs, and engine oil prices as justification. Many operators return home without earnings despite working extended hours. Passengers demand official statements from transport unions to resolve confusion about potential rate adjustments affecting household budgets. [/QUOTE]
