do' you think Ghana wulli be like this forever.we are waiting for this system
What does illiterate abass Moro know? Once we know the number of stops from, let’s say circle to Kaneshie is 10 stops, and the cost is 10cedis, we can say each stop is one cedi, then work it in the machine…don’t listen ...

Togbe. Do we tap 10 times if we are doing 10 stops per your suggestion. Well like you I too think it can work to some degree but that is also exactly what GPRTU are saying. The main challenge I anticipate is how the various t ...

Right, it’s the way we move forward…. I was thinking maybe you tap when you get on, then tap when you get off…..and machine will know the distance or number of stops and subtract the amount for that distant. We need m ...

The money won’t get pulled to one place…each Totro driver will have his own account like a bank . STC n metro buses have accountants
Please can you educate some of us further about how the funds will get to these accounts? You see for STC, METRO MASS, 2M are companies and can therefore have one account so any fare pay in its name but with TROTRO AND even V ...

Each trotro would have their own card reader that deducts preloaded cards, similar to the electric cards/keys and deduct the correct amount from each customer into the trotro's bank account
You are rightly on point.
The system can be programmed to log your start point on the journey when you tap on. Then when you alight, you don't even have to tap again, the system already knows that that card holder have alighted. The fare is then calcu ...

You mean people from those countries are not human beings, my friend be careful.
This is Accra!
This Abass guy is just being an NDC: Always NO to any new thing. Please Togbe, forget this man and his ignorance.
Helloooo... NPP akromfuor nkwasiafuor aban! This is what you will reap when you foolishly, stubbornly, and devilishly set about to reject, ridicule, and downplay every effort at development that your neighbour would initiate ...

Togbe Agorkorli yes Abass Moro comes from mali or whatever its same like your Samira Bawumiah BAWULIAR the extra wife coming from FULANI NIGERIEN. BOMBERCLAT TOGBE AGORKOLI. BOMBERCLAT "AMOADSE"
Backwards black people’s country don’t want development and progress in their society.
The Trotro drivers don’t know the Tap and Go will help them. Robbers will not be willing to attack drivers for money because they will know that the drivers don’t carry money.
Besides, the Police will stop harassing driv ...

Ghanaians are just not serious at all. When the NDC wanted to legalize Okada operations by educating, training, and monitoring their operations, the whole world wanted to come to an end. So much noise was made by the npp. Tod ...

That’s a great submission selfmade!

Do you understand what trotro means or the difference between trotro and bus service?
If the system can work for TAXIS, it can work for trotro too!!
They are all short distance vehicles or Mike?
Do you know some taxis turn off their meter and take money on the side.
I have even seen taxis fighting passengers who insist on getting a receipt.
Of course, there is nothing strange about this system. It can be good b ...

Do you see some Ghanaians have become stupidly blind by partisan politics? If Mahama started the program and Bawumia is trying to improve on it, what is wrong? Let us use our brains properly a bit.
Ghanaians are some of the most jealous people on this planet and sometimes it shocks me a lot that a group of people can be so jealous and bitter at the same time!

Have you forgotten how our Trotro system operates. At times during the peak period passengers struggle to board and so how do they tap and go. Let us be practical
Why we don't want to change? It can work effectively if similar system works in other countries STOP POLITICIZING EVERYTHING IN OUR DEAR COUNTRY WE ARE MOVING FORWARD WITH THE WORLD
This moron is ignorant of how computer/ software engineering systems work. The system can be programmed to accommodate short distances within short intervals
Backward mentality from Abu Moro
The man of the moment with vision, not small small chick's and small small pigs
There is the need to give it a trial and enforce the rules and regulations on it.We should learn to accept changes for development. The top most must also discipline themselves for the current generation to emulate.
You are just daft. The world is progressing.
