Imagine you’re sitting in the back of an Uber when both your and the driver’s apps close without warning. You each try to restart them, but they won’t connect. What do you both do? Well, thousands of people apparently learned the answer to this question in real-time yesterday, as Uber pulled out of both Nigeria and Uganda without warning.
As reported by Newsbytes, Uber’s decision to withdraw from both African countries wasn’t preceded by an official announcement, though similar withdrawals from international markets were given weeks of advance notice.
