Passengers have been stranded in most parts of Accra as a result of the Coalition of Commercial Transport Operators’ strike, which began on Monday, December 6.

The drivers are protesting the country’s high fuel prices.

Scores of frustrated passengers were seen standing on the pavement at Lapaz as they waited for vehicles to pick them to their various destinations.

Some Commercial drivers who complied with the decision to strike were seen with canes hitting other buses who had loaded passengers and failed to heed the call to strike, forcing all of them to step down from the vehicles.
