最新报道:Drivers in Nigeria's Edo state launched a strike protesting rising fuel costs and fare cuts by ride-hailing apps like Bolt and Uber, demanding higher fares to offset expenses. The Amalgamated Union of App-based Transporters threatened indefinite action unless platforms raise rates by at least 200%, citing fuel price hikes after Nigeria's subsidy removal. While Uber temporarily increased fares by 25%-30% in June, drivers claim this adjustment remains insufficient. The strike highlights growing tensions between gig workers and tech platforms in emerging markets grappling with inflation and currency devaluation. Ride-hailing companies face pressure to balance driver earnings with customer affordability amid Nigeria's economic challenges.
