Some commercial bus drivers in Lagos popularly known as Danfo drivers, have commenced a warning strike to kick against alleged extortions by operatives of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA).
Business Post gathered that the bus drivers refused to convey passengers to their various destinations across the metropolis, leaving many of them stranded at bus stops.
The situation affected some workers, who could not get vehicles to take them to their different places of work because of the actions of the aggrieved motorists.
It was gathered that only a few of the commercial motorists were working at the time of filing this report and they have raised the fares.
Our correspondent observed that some passengers expressed hopes that the issue would be resolved soon if the state government under the leadership of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu promptly intervenes.
However, some of the passengers are still at bus stops at Egbeda, Ikeja, Oshodi, Iyana Ipaja, Maryland, and others waiting for buses to convey them to their destinations.
