The passengers accused him of deliberately charging the old fare despite the GPRTU’s public announcement of a nationwide fare adjustment.
In the video, the passengers can be seen confronting the trotro mate and beating him as they demanded their rightful change.
The mate, however, stood his ground and insisted that he was still operating under the old fare system and had not received any official communication to enforce the reduced fares.
