The Lagos ride-hailing sector is under renewed scrutiny following claims by the Amalgamated Union of App-Based Transporters of Nigeria (AUATON) that Bolt has implemented a 50% fare cut, significantly impacting drivers’ earnings.
AUATON’s Lagos State Public Relations Officer, Steven Iwindoye, warned that a mass protest could follow if the alleged adjustment is not reversed.
However, in exclusive interviews with Nairametrics, Bolt drivers Christian and Evans Nwokoro refuted the claim, stating they had not transported any passenger who received a 50% discount.
