On Tuesday, the Public Relations Officer of GPRTU, Abass Moro, indicated on the Ghana Kasa show that aired on Kasapa 102.5FM and Agoo TV that the recent tiny percentage reduction in the cost of petrol does not attract a decline in transport rates for the time being because prices of vehicle replacement parts are continuing to increase.

Abass Moro has stated that the GPRTU won’t even consider cutting transportation fees until a litre of fuel costs GHC10.00. This is the criterion that has been established. The GPRTU statement included an explanation of this point.

“Any member of the public who, in light of the recent drop in the price of fuel, believes that there will be a corresponding fall in the cost of using public transport should forget about that idea for the time being. Instead, the general population ought to make a plea to the government to lower the price of fuel to GHC10.00 per litre, which will at least be reasonable. When it is finished, there will be a certain reduction in the fares for the various forms of transportation.

This call was made by the APG. Despite the current low cost of fuel.

After recent decreases in the price of petrol and diesel fuel, the group came to the conclusion that they needed to make this decision.
