Student stakeholders from Zik Hall, led by Elemide, confronted commercial motorists at the University of Ibadan’s main gate following reports of a sudden spike in transport fares. The stakeholders engaged the drivers in heated discussions, urging them to revert to the standard fare of ₦150, after complaints surfaced about an increase to ₦400.
The confrontation stemmed from a recent report by UCJ, which highlighted the inflation in transport costs. In response, Elemide and other Zik Hall stakeholders took to the UI car park at the main gate to voice their dissatisfaction, seeking an immediate reduction in the inflated prices.
The motorists, however, denied any wrongdoing, challenging the students to provide evidence of the alleged price hike, including details of the specific vehicles involved.
