Samuel AmoahThe Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) has suspended plans to increase transport fares by 30% as the union await the outcome of the next fuel pricing window expected on Friday. The decision follows discussions between transport unions and government after authorities appealed for more time to implement measures aimed at reducing fuel prices. The Deputy Public Relations Officer of GPRTU, Samuel Amoah, said the union agreed to temporarily shelve the proposed fare adjustment following government’s request. “Yesterday, my leadership informed us that when they met, government asked us to hold on because they are working on measures to ensure fuel prices come down,” he disclosed. Mr. Amoah, despite the assurance, said, “Our investigations have proved to us that even in the next pricing window, fuel prices are likely to go up again.
