The Coalition of Commercial Transport Owners has announced its intention to embark on a nationwide indefinite strike beginning Monday, November 6 as part of measures to compel the government to scrap some taxes on fuel to enable reduction at the pumps.

According to the Coalition, the government for the past two weeks has failed to heed their calls for some taxes to be scrapped off hence the decision to embark on the sit-down strike.

Meanwhile, the Institute for Energy Security (IES) has projected fuel prices are likely to hit 1.13 USD or more by the end of the year.
