Local ride-hailing company Yego wants the State to lower the commission that boda boda operators pay to 15 percent in a bid to boost their earnings, breaking ranks with other industry players, including Uber.

The company petitioned the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure to lower the cap from the current 18 percent, siding with operators who have also written to lawmakers to reduce the commission payable.
