Uber drivers in Lagos, Nigeria have initiated a class action suit against Uber, arguing that they are entitled to employee benefits from Uber. It is also claimed in the suit that 'by virtue of the nature of the defendant's control over the claimants and members of their class, they are not meant to be classified as independent contractors', and that the company should also provide its drivers with health insurance and pension benefits.
