A group of Uber and Bolt drivers gathered on Monday in Abuja under the leadership of the National Coalition of Ridesharing Professionals (NACORP) to embark on a three-day warning strike over the alleged exploitation and extortion of the drivers by the e-hailing companies.

Included in the list of demands made by the drivers is the immediate upward review of e-cab fares to reflect the current economic realities in the country.

Already the strike is having some effect as the distinct lack of the drivers slowed down movements and brought commercial activities in the nation’s capital to a screeching halt as commuters found themselves stranded at various bus stops.

Fred Aleburu, the NACORP Deputy Coordinator, Administration, told journalists in an address made on behalf of the group on Monday, that they were also calling for the profiling of the riders (passengers) for the sake of security.

Aleburu asked the government to come to their aid by passing into law the necessary measures needed to regulate and control the operations of the E-Transport companies, explaining that the companies had refused to review their fares as they continued to apply a charge of N300 per trip despite the terrible economic climate in the country.

The NACORP Deputy Coordinator accused the companies of indifference to their problems and unwillingness to entertain all the efforts being made so far to find a permanent solution to the issue. Aleburu vowed that they were committed to entirely crippling the operations of the companies until their demands were met.
