    Taxis in Ghana are not regulated. Most of them are not road worthy and they smell. The drivers cheat the owners and lie all the time. We should welcome UBER and promote a Ghanaian owned software equivalent

    Everyone in Ghana should download the uber app and use their great service. Workers/students with cars can sign up and earn extra money. Uber expand and operate in all the towns. Wish you guys all the best in Ghana.

  • Kwadwo Kyei 7 years ago

    You are a jerk. What has this got to do with Ashantis? Must tribalism find its way into every discussion? And you have the nerve to call someone uneducated. You don't sound very educated to me at all. You are plainly stupid.
