The National Union of Road Transport Workers, Lagos State Chapter, on Monday, cautioned commercial bus drivers against hike in fares over the ban and restriction of motorcycles and tricycles’ operations in the state.
The state Chairman of the NURTW, Alhaji Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo, gave the caution in a statement in Lagos.
Akinsanya said that the warning became imperative following complaints from members of the public alleging that commercial drivers are taking advantage of the ban to inflict more pains on the commuters.
The NURTW boss said that no commercial driver should inflate the fares so as not to multiply the pains of commuters in the state.
He warned that anyone caught in the act would be dealt with in line with the rules and regulations of the union.
