Informal workers call for a 50/50 split in
Informal workers—particularly ride‑hailing and food‑delivery couriers—have organized protests demanding that platforms such as Uber, Lyft, DoorDash and similar services share earnings equally, calling for a 50 % / 50 % split of fares or commissions between the platform and the driver. They argue the current model leaves them with low, unstable incomes while the companies keep the majority of revenue. The demand has sparked debates and negotiations in several countries over labor rights, gig‑economy regulation and fair pay. Views Nigeria
