Doesn't Mamabolo owe Julius some money after catching a backlash case of spousal abuse allegations? You trust such a guy with Gautengs money...

ANC built etoll with out the support of voters they can now do the right thing and turn etoll off with voters support before 2024.

SouthAfricanSon Just turn them off. It is as simple as that😅

Flo_Letoaba 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Wrong headed politics. eTolls are key component to maintaining and expansion of our road network. ANC must lead on this issue.

Phanya phanya

🤣🤣🤣Jacob Mamabolo🙊Really, Is that the best they have? It means the rest is worse🤣

They must do it before 2024

Flo_Letoaba Do we still have e tolls?

Please

By the way Lesufi said he will just continue doing what his predecessor started . Who still remember that etolls is exactly what David_Makhura used for all his campaigns? He even established a fruitless commission to look into this failed project. We are being taken for fools

Same song different singers same political party

Makhura said the same thing when he got the job

Flo_Letoaba He couldn’t do that whilst Transport MEC 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Ag kak ...Lesufi according to MbalulaFikile the cabinet already made a decision that will be announced at the mid budget... lesufi is looking for brownie points

Ke sono ka batho ba anc, now every premier promises this!

Flo_Letoaba Samthandi u Lesufi , ubakhathalele abantu

Flo_Letoaba MbalulaFikile said the announcement was imminent back in 2016, I guess the Premier has to find something to electioneer on.

As Gauteng residents we must wise up, this kind of talk comes everytime before elections and after elections is one story after the other , we are wiser Panyaza must know

Cde. Phanyaza is an member, and e-tolls are an ANC creation, why need a plan to scrap them, than to use the power bestowed to the ANC and scrap them.

Flo_Letoaba Flo, I honestly hate it when politicians lie to us and make it look like we don't understand the system. The power to scrap e-tolls is not provincial level.

Kikikikiki and people must believe this
