“We have sent very an expound bit to be indeed included within the 2022 budget; not a line. The drivers have too called for a few of these charges to be looked at, nothing has been done. And so on the off chance that we wear’t alter that state of mind for 2022 and the technique from government authorities or best level authorities, or Back Service will be the ‘Yentie obiaa’ from where I sit I can see a really troublesome year panning out,†he included.
