The congres of the South African trade
unions said together with its affiliates held a successful campaign against the
expensive toll gate which is situated on the N4 which belong to millions of
motorists.
COSATU’s NW Provincial Secretary Solly
Phetoe said they will continue this campaign.
Phetoe explains that it must
be on record that their action started very late due to the conduct and
attitude of Bakwena and Sanral, being part of the triangular meeting to approve
all the strict conditions with the municipality, and a late run to the high
court.
Phetoe added that they want to be on record
that with those bad conditions set out to us by the municipality during our
application, as per the Gathering Act, we are going to continue with our
program until we see action to reduce the toll.
“Sanral and Bakwena are the beneficiaries
on that expensive toll gate,”highlighted Phetoe
Phetoe also said that poor people,
motorists and the communities of the NW are not benefiting.
He also
addeda that Some of the people who are benefiting are those who are close to
Bakwena and Sanral and most of them are politicians.
