1000 online
drivers under their body, smart online drivers association (SODA) have today signed a memorandum of
understanding with a new online operator dubbed, Little ride and have dropped
their respective previous operators namely, Uber, Taxify, bolt and others.
The visibly
happy drivers castigate their former online operators for being cheats in
business and only wishing themselves well as compared to them who spend hours
driving.
According to
the chairman SODA, Musa Kabunga and operations manager, Max Godfrey, the new
smart drivers operator they have partnered with has fair prices among other favorable
packages that are geared at growing them as individuals as compared to their former
online partners.
The business
growth manager Kampala Little ride, Ajay
Pal Siyh notes that, they have studied the taxi business environment in
Uganda and Africa as a whole before starting up in Uganda and pledges the best
packages for both the customers and the drivers ranging from security, transport
fairs, convenience among others.
The MOU
signed today in Kampala will now see online taxi drivers starting charging as
low as UGX.8000 as opposed to UGX.4000 which was set by their former
operators which to them was very little money given the distance and current
prices and drivers are now free to move to any corner of this country which has
not been the case.
