Lagos state is very right. There should be regulations. Anybody cant come from nowhere and start operating like it is their right. Do u know what it takes to open a business entity abroad?

Well thought out policy.
Which well thought. They're never able to improve ease of doing business, only able to come up with layers and layers of taxation for new businesses.

This is wickedness of the highest order. Uber and bolt drivers couldn't work for months due to the pandemic, and now that things are getting normalised, the state government is coming with this BS. the most painful aspect of it is that the money they would raked in will be looted and not used for the masses. Lagos hasn't been bad as this Sanwo's tenure. The man is not in touch with the masses.

If I understand this story very well, "someone in the cabinet is proposing an app" I hope it's not mycab cause they brought government attention to this platforms. Now the gov haven't said anything in favour of the said drivers but only taxation ( more like pick pocketing in the middle of a fight).

At the end of the day, a bulk of the tax burden will bounce back on the consumer smiley As soon as you tax them, expect transportation cost on Uber and Bolt platforms to double.

Every serious Taxicab operator will joyfully pay the licensing fee. Can't say the same for the consumer.

Just don't complain when Uber or Bolt tells you to pay N5000 for a 1 hour trip.

You people should keep running your mouth. Government don't give a fck about you, that's why the regulation is all about them, how much they want as taxes, 10% service fee on all trips, licensing fee, annual renewal of licenses, etc. It's all about them, not you the consumer who seems to know too much on how to protect a corrupt and useless government.

Thank you in advance to Lagos State for ensuring that businesses such as these are killed or permanently chased away.

This stuff just reads like the plot from a comedy.

It is not enough to steal and pilfer public funds, Lagos state Government just has to come up with the most irrelevant of fees and taxes whilst bringing nothing to the table.

Nicely done.

Just remember, one day go be one day.
