Ride-Hailing Drivers in Nigeria Demand Fare Increase by 200% From Ride-Hailing Companies (investorsking.com)

Ridehailing company Bolt has reportedly increased its fare price by over 100, due to the current fuel scarcity in Nigeria as riders lament bitterly.

The fuel price which has led to the limited availability of commercial buses on the road, has seen riders left with no option but to pay for the exorbitant Tfare.

Some riders revealed that they were tasked by Bolt drivers at the point of pickup to pay extra.

While some cooperated, several others did not hesitate to cancel the ride.

Several riders took to Twitter to express their concerns over the increased fare prices on the Bolt app
