Uber announces withdrawal from Nigeria and Uganda amid global restructuring
The company says it will immediately leave both countries after losing significant ground to competitors.
Uber has announced it will immediately withdraw from Nigeria and Uganda, linking the decision to a global restructuring and intensified competition in both markets.
The ride-hailing company said it had lost significant ground to competitors in the two countries. It did not identify those competitors or quantify the losses in the announcement reported by France 24 International.
Uber described the withdrawal as immediate, but the supplied material does not specify operational dates or explain whether services will end simultaneously in Nigeria and Uganda.
The announcement does not provide further detail on the restructuring or clarify the relative weight of that process and competitive pressure in the decision. It also does not independently establish that all operations have already ceased.
