Many drivers held signs and chanted slogans, demanding better conditions and fair treatment from the platforms they work for.

Despite the fake trips and confusion, drivers seem determined to continue fighting for their rights. As the gig economy grows in Nigeria and across Africa, these kinds of protests could become more common. It’s a reminder that behind the convenience of ride-hailing apps, there are real people trying to make a living.

That’s all for now. Stay tuned for more updates from Techpoint!

The recent protests by drivers in Nigeria were not just about demanding better pay, but also about seeking proper social protection. This includes access to health insurance, pensions, and safety nets for times when things go wrong. These demands highlight the importance of ensuring that workers in the gig economy are not left vulnerable and unprotected.

The gig economy has seen a rapid rise in recent years, with many people turning to platforms like ride-hailing services for flexible work opportunities. However, the lack of traditional employment benefits like health insurance and pensions has left many gig workers in a precarious position. Without these protections, they are left exposed to financial risks and uncertainty.

The demands of the drivers in Nigeria reflect a growing recognition of the need for social protection for gig workers. In addition to fair pay, they are calling for access to basic benefits that are essential for their well-being and financial security. This includes health insurance to cover medical expenses, pensions to provide for retirement, and safety nets to support them in times of crisis.

Ensuring that gig workers have access to these protections is not only a matter of fairness, but also of economic stability. When workers are secure in their basic needs, they are better able to contribute to the economy and society as a whole. By providing social protection for gig workers, we can create a more inclusive and sustainable economy that benefits everyone.

As the gig economy continues to grow, it is essential that we address the needs of workers in this sector. By ensuring that they have access to proper social protection, we can support their well-being and contribute to a more equitable society. The demands of the drivers in Nigeria serve as a reminder of the importance of addressing these issues and working towards a more just and inclusive economy.
