Oliver Barker-Vormawor, a prominent social activist, has slammed Uber and Bolt’s work-and-pay arrangements, labeling them as scams. The activist made the statement, sparking concerns about the exploitation of drivers working with the popular rideshare platforms.
According to GHOne News, Barker-Vormawor’s criticism comes amidst ongoing debates about the treatment of drivers and the fairness of the companies’ commission structures. The activist argues that the arrangements are exploitative, leaving drivers with meager earnings.
Barker-Vormawor’s comments highlight the struggles of drivers who work long hours to make ends meet, often facing high costs for fuel, maintenance, and other expenses. The activist’s stance has resonated with many drivers who feel taken advantage of by the companies.
The rideshare industry has grown significantly in Ghana, with many people relying on Uber and Bolt as a source of income. However, concerns about the companies’ treatment of drivers have been ongoing.
Uber and Bolt have yet to respond to Barker-Vormawor’s allegations. The issue is likely to spark further debate about the need for greater regulation and protection for drivers.
As the conversation continues, drivers and activists alike are calling for fairer treatment and more transparent commission structures.
