He said, “We are spending our sales in regarding our damaged vehicles. The roads are bad and as drivers, we can no longer entertain the situation. We are currently on strike. The strike will last till Saturday. We want the poor roads fixed. We deserve better roads in the affected communities”.

He warned that they would have no option but to increase fares if the concerns are not addressed by Sunday, July 24, 2022.
