The government is in talks with the private transport operators over the potential increase in lorry fares.

The engagement comes after mounting pressures from Ghana Private Road Transport Union (GPRTU) and other unions following the increase in fuel prices for the third time in 2025.

Transport Minister, Joseph Bukari Nikpe who is currently engaging the unions told the press, “Unofficially, I have engaged them, and tomorrow (February 11), we will continue discussions. They are cooperating, and from what I gather, they have urged their members to exercise patience while we work towards a mutually beneficial outcome.”

Although there have been speculation over increase in lorry fares, the minister remained tight-lipped on potential outcomes.

“That is not for me to say. I am engaging them, and we will see what comes next,” he noted.

Transport unions have long cited soaring operational expenses as a key challenge, fueling speculation of imminent fare adjustments.

The GPRTU had previously delayed fare review discussions, citing the need to engage with an officially appointed transport minister.

As fuel prices keep increasing and economic situation being unfavorable to the Ghanaian public, it is now up to the government to find a fair balances for all parties.
