More than 800 drivers have joined a court case filed against mobile phone taxi hailing company Uber challenging the American firm’s move to slash fares by 35 per cent.
The drivers, through the Digital Taxi Association of Kenya lobby, claim that the American firm is engaging in restrictive trade practices by capping fares at Sh35 per kilometre with a minimum fee of Sh200.
