Death toll in Boksburg Gas tanker explosion rises to 10:
EFF National Spokesperson, Leigh-Ann Mathys says, “We also call for the immediate arrest of Infinite Group CEO, which is the logistics company that the truck carrying the gas belongs to. Ultimately, the CEO is responsible for all operations of the company. The authorities must not treat the CEO as a bystander. The lives lost and damage caused demand that someone is held accountable criminally and the CEO is the first respondent to this tragic crisis.
What had the CEO got to do with it because it was the reckless driving of the driver and he's in jail as we speak?
There are a few logistical aspects to consider in this matter ,which are the basic of every logistics and transport operation which has to be in line with the international and local regulations of transporting dangerous goods .
There we go again the EFF using the tragedy to make itself relevant. Nice term to make u look smart, CEO of logistics. All the directors of the company have to be arrested not only the CEO. No legal basis given for the bizarre reasons for immediate arrest of CEO.😅🤔
Was the CEO driving the truck?
The EFFSouthAfrica has to help to educate and strengthen the law in South Africa, we would have less on crime and accidents and other unlawful doings.
What does the ceo have to do with the accident? Don't you think a FULL and unbiased investigation needs to be done first. NO, eff has to jump on the bandwagon and cause chaos, where there is actually heartbreak. Get a damn life!!!😡
These ones think we are ruled by lawlessness wherein one just wake up and arrest people without thinking of possible charges. No we are a democratic state where the rule of law prevails and arrests follows the investigation.
South Africa is testing medicine of its own make. Firing professional foreign drivers and replace them with incompetent taxi drivers. It's sad.
Uphambene Julius wena
What does the CEO have to do with this?
Was the Owner driving?
Then they must 1st arrest their CIC, for hating whites so much😄😄🙈😄😄
Too many truck drivers get licenses but don't know how to drive these trucks properly 🤷🏻♂️
Why? Did the CEO drive the truck?
Nonsense, the driver must be held accountable.
What is his motive for this call! But hear is a book that written about this man..OUR POISONED LAND..the writer is JACQUES PAUW..best seller THE PRESIDENT 'S KEEPERS
Ai this Mickey mouse party!
You EFF is pathetic, get all your facts before making assumptions. If the CEO was another colour would you ask the same
Use the amount you can afford join now and get profit from Bitcoin investment through Brandonkaren11 Bitcoin mining investment platform , i love you for helping me
I wonder when are they arrested for VBS money
Why must the CE0 be arrested?
Lol and be charged with what?
Of all the responsible people they only want to arrest the CEO of the company?
What a bunch of a holes these loudmouth fools from The eff are. We still have to find out what the driver was doing where he was
EFF very funny
Have they finished investigations already? Polititians really make me sick its not like they built a bridge that wont stand. Logistics companies do a route recognisance before a truck carrying dangerous material goes out its really unlikely the truck was in an approved route.
I believe if we all know and understand the LAW EFF wouldn't make such claims. Ok a case can be open of inquest if the driver is died too. But none then that, yes driver can be charged. One more dept of transport need to be accountable for road worth as they do with cars
EFF please stop taking everything into a political games. The police are working on it. The CEO is cooperating, so what is your problem. Just be cool- headed, we are in mourning here. You are at your games, this is not parliament where you reduce such an august house into creches
Can they bring back goods train
What for?
That cult are smoking a wrong weed
Arrest for what 🤔
So if a EFF members does something wrong we can arrest CIC?
Arrest CEO for what?
Kubi ezweni 🥺
The ceo wasn’t driving. Wtf
Arrested for what exactly?
Why? Do we know it’s his fault? The EFF are always causing chaos before the facts are known. Not a good time for pathetic politicking
Wonder what you are smoking for Christmas
So then they must arrest Malema as well, as he is the CEO of the EFF that causes destruction all over the country including the killing of the white farmers.
To be consistent, taxi bosses must then be arrested when their taxing are involved in accidents.
People called for his arrest wen vbs scandal broke out..
They must not jump the bridge you start by investigating.
I think EFF CIC should be arrested for public violence and malicious damage for various protests that turned violent
CEO is definitely accountable for the operational systems & procedures of the business, but the driver is responsible for his actions. If the driver didn't follow training & dangeroues goods driving procedures then he is on his own, nothing to do with CEO.
For the second time in my life I agree with the EFF. Too many South Africans are dying because these trucking companies blatantly break the laws of the country. If the ANC government does not want to enforce the law, we have to rely on our courts where we can.
OMG? No thorough investigation but people must be arrested? EFFSouthAfrica again busy with populist politics. Julius_S_Malema AdvDali_Mpofu fanamokoena FloydShivambu MbuyiseniNdlozi It shows what SA would be if ever in creation EFF would get into power. No due process.
So what is that going to accomplish? Like the CEO of the department in charge of the Esidimeni debacle. Where is that one today?
Why must the CEObe arrested ?There are many accidents and tragic things that are happening and why are you'll not calling for those people to be arrested ?Have you proof that the CEO instructed the driver to go under this bridge ?
Nonsense
SABC News feels the urge to always broadcast what the EFF has to say no matter good or bad.
The reason why they want the CEO arrested it's because, the driver was not a foreign national!!!! To them all these trucks must be driven by foreigners.
Arrest for what for accident Nah EFF they got some issues.. nobody plans for accidents it happens.
Too early for such a call,many operational issues are at play here.From driver training to emergency response to harzadous situations and evacuation thereof
And the driver
Also an immediate arrest : Those who were brided during the Gayani water project...
Why must he be arrested lol
They never mentioned the drug dealers and illicit cigarettes cigarettes Parklands
EFF really can not lead. Too emotional, they will always make rash decisions. They deserve to stay as a 10% party.
This drivers ignore information signs
The CEO wasn't rhe one driving, why not arrest the driver🤷♂️
Really?! We have been calling for the arrest of Malema and that hasn't happened! VBS theft has caused much more casualties!
Sometimes the smallest step in the right direction ends up being the biggest step of your life. Tip toe if you must, but you take the step with Cormick0Dave You sound have be among thoses crypto lovers so far they are many who have better understanding on how crypto works.
MbalulaFikile we don't want goods trucks in our roads 😩. We know you comrades are benefiting In logistics hence most of you own those trucks. In most car accidents a truck is involved or the potholes coursed by trucks in our roads. Asiwa funi ama trucks emgwaqeni Fikile 😏
Was the CEO driving the truck, the EFF must stop drinking african beer with biscuits
Did the driver survived
Arrested for what ?
Lol why ? 😒…. Arrest the driver 🙁! CEO 😢😢😢 let’s let the necessary people do their work! This is sad indeed
They can only sue the company and the driver will be charged with culpable homicide that's SA law
Let's start from the roots, let's arrest the drivers licence issuer, going up.
SABC also gives EFF and RET disproportionate airspace.
Bathong why ?
As soon as every single taxi boss and gun manufacturer has been arrested, for their part in the unnecessary loss of innocent lives
I wonder if deflating all the tires while the truck was in this state was gonna save a lot of lives🤔
I strongly agree with the decision but start with questioning. I dont think the driver has got fully certified as the dangerous good certification to operate this. If he has then he might be bought the qualifications
For what?
CEO should Account for the lives of the people
Wouldn’t listen to a f&cking the EFF not even on a good day!!!
On what grounds, because the truck has a hight measurement when he leaves the depot and the bridges have signs that shows the height of the bridge ...( Unless if the was no sign ) which is then negligence from the driver , driver must be charged if he is still alive...soo please
This malema guy is trying to be relavant even if there is no need honestly the arrest will be under what charges or he should have fly out and stop the driver not to use the bridge because the truck can't fit in yhooo this eff loves drama and attention man
Infinity Transport has many questions to answer. Around designated routes, tanker tracing, driver training and discipline, certification.
🤣🤣Eeeh let's see where this case is going cause this is drivers negligent
What must he be arrested for exactly?
His crime being People could have done their jobs better, they should be called to account, y'all stop jumping the gun and making accusations and demands that make no sense
Can Malema and his people take a chill for a moment, arrest him for what?
Ya nyela eff
Jwang?
What's the owner of the truck 🚚 doing ? EFF stop doing the stupid thing . We blame the driver not owner of the truck. Cause the owner knows that the truck traveling to Botswana not Boksburg .
Just sit down Jujoo you are not recognized.
Who arrest them when they harass white people to leave the country? They toyitoyi even when they see flies passing
EFF must shut its mouth just as it did on VBS heist
Looking at this picture of the lpg tanker i cant help but wonder how a tanker that explodes still remains so intact? Can somebody explain this?
EFF doesnt call the shots,there are procedures to follow, that bambino dictator must sit down n shaaaaaaarup
Heeban, based on what? Was the truck unroadworthy? Or did they hire a foreign national with no proper documentation? Balance me here please
🙄🙄
The companies certification to transport hazardous materials expired in 2018. But this will just be like the children that died in the Tavern all hype and condolences fir a week. Then forgotten.
On what grounds, dear anarchists EFFSouthAfrica?
Why CEO, is he the one driving the truck?
MAAMPAARA JUJU eff at it again.. !!!
But you did report about this yesterday, why are you sounding like a broken record now?
EFF should leave their greedy manners ..family's are grieving ..
For what, why not the driver himself waitsi lerata sport light nxa
CityTshwane MAY WE PLEASE GET POWER AT 9329 MONATE STREET OLIEVENHOUTBOSCH RUA VISTA OUR FOOD IS ROTTEN ITS HAS BEEN DAYS NOW😭😭😭😭😭
These trucks should be removed or minimized from the roads seriously it's everyday thing of accidents. We must strike for this.
I wonder what type of government will it be under EFF?
This is an attack not an accident. Those in intelligence need to account.
Emergency services was reckless here look like they didn't know what type of danger they were dealing with
Ceo? How?
A looser says The CEO must be arrested for employing an illegal immigrant. SAs forget that Zimbos are here because of former President Thabo Mbeki who sanitized Robert Mugabe’s stealing of 2008 elections. ANC’ SG just said nonsense the other day too, supporting thuggery in Zim.
...... and what did the ANC or Presidency say
Ag man. They are already high as everyone affected is crying
That is as logical as arresting the CEO of every company whose driver has an accident. Likewise, every taxi boss whose driver causes an accident. Perhaps also every political leader whose members cause damage to property.
typical
Arrest yourselves as well
Ai. Educated people state such....
What if the CEO of EFF removed the bridge height signal... And the driver of EFF CEO once drove on oncoming traffic not realizing he is in the wrong lane, was the CEO blamed that he hired unqualified driver?
EFF shouldn't be considered rn it's festive season, alcohol consumption is too high.
Instead of offering support and comfort to the families they suggest non-sensical arrests..what would the arrest achieve right now ...thankfully law enforcement don't listen to the buffoons
If the owner was a black person. The white owed mainstream media in South Africa would be splashing his name and face everywhere. And the black journalists who work for the white mainstream media would be doing their best to paint black as corrupt or incompetent.
For what why can he be arrested for?
They should arrest their own brains for failing them...
Good grief...Fire your Minister of Transport first.Clueless.The law needs to change.
Very. Bad
Why arrest the CEO? Was he driving?
EFF is boring.......scared of the Ankole now chasing CEO, guy was not driving. Let the Law play it rule
An EFF member has hit and killed a young lady on district road,so we demand the president of EFF to be arrested indefinitely. Hey I'm so dumb with such mentality .
Not smart those ones
Why
CEO is the one who is going to answer in the court of law . People must start learn what is the role of CEO .
Arrested only because he's probably white? You arrest the driver if he's alive and investigate the person who trained the driver including verification that his driving papers are legit and up to date.
,let's get the ceo of transnet arrested as well
Arrest them all
EFF trying to grandstand again. Go rob a bank. Stick to what you good at
The get the balls snd arrest him
No superior logic for what?
eatlyst ,the driver of that truck 🚚 he was a South African citizen Not a ZIMBABWEANS zanupf_patriots
Publicity as usually
CEO is responsible for everything that happens in his organization, yes He must be arrested
EFF keep running their mouths about people who should be locked up...except when it's their guys involved.
You like to arrest and fire. CEOs don't move around with drivers. Drivers are fully responsible for what happens on the road with their vehicles. Sometimes, it's not even their fault. They become victims. Learn to apply your mind before talking hot air.
Madness...then Malema should be arrested for any offense done by party members
The eff should rather charge the minister of education! And put MbalulaFikile on the charge sheet too.
they must arrest the driver !!
Why
Arrest the deceased drivers family.
...just because he saw on the news that the CEO is a whitey.. grounds enough for his arrest...
The EFF is the most craziest party please don't listen to them they always look 4 attention.....
The system to track vehicles transporting hazardous material should be improved, it must be the same as the system used in aviation, from route planing to route approval,including having drivers authenticated by the system, which should be managed by an independent authority.
EFF just want to seek relevance from nothing. They should understand how things work
EFF is a little 'dictator' that I am still trying hard to understand it's purpose. Let's give them a chance to rule SA and actually experience DICTATORSHIP.
EFF hate capitalism like they have created jobs before let’s investigate then decide liability
EFF says CEO must be arrested what has he done i need a clarity bakithi
SANRAL should have some consequences...
Even the owner of the EFF must be immediately be arrested.
EFF is maal mahn, het CEO daai gas trok bestuur?
Why CEO. Was it the CEO who suggested the driver to use that route. EFF must stop being so naive. They must stop using this situation as an opportunity to campaign for candidates. If one police officer solicited Bribery, does it mean that police minister must be arrested? Nonsens
Would the EFF please share any evidence they have that can hold the CEO responsible?
Arrest the CEO on what grounds. Has the investigations point fingers on the CEO that he/she is guilty?
Anything to be relevant - the people place in the services will make that call (not the red overall brigade)
All i want to know is the driver a South African🤔🤔m so concerned
Guys is it EFF says that or someone come and make joke with EFF?plz guys we musnt rush to comment in a bad way ,without knowing the true about,then we can say what ever once we heard that eff say something about,that's my wishes
He/she is supposed to be jailed by now
eish!!!!!!!
On what grounds?
Tell malema to go duck himself it was an accident he needs to be in jail the monkey
Yeee baan. This is craziness was the CEO driving the truck? Tell EFF to focus on politics.
Was the CEO driving the gas tanker?
EFF is always right, this cross negligent must never go unpunished. The company needs to account and the CEO is the accounting authority
The other culprit, BBEEE......have you employ people of colour, no matter their competence
According to how majority of people think, Markus Jooste shouldn't be arrested, a penalty fine is okay because he wasn't the one behind the laptop trading🙆. Inde lendlela
Mxm BS !! On what grounds? This is just one of those primary examples why the EFF SHOULD NEVER BE GIVEN A CHANCE TO RUN THIS COUNTRY.
This is a Mickey Mouse party.
Then by these principles… Julius Malena is directly responsible for the crimes committed by EFF members too.
EFF leader is slow the ceo did not drive is your Zim brother your ugly deng
How do they know its the ceos fault
Eff is slowly becoming a big joke
My gawd was there a second explosion? Why is the firetruck damaged now? 😳
Whattheflippenhell 🤬 🤬 🤬
Did the ceo drive the truck? Come on EFFSouthAfrica
Yoh, poor black woman. Thol’ukuthi it’s a BEE company and the black CEO doesn’t know a thing. 🤦🏾♂️
Eff talking shit again of something they nothing about
We are calling for the immediate arrest arrest of “the” Julius Malema Julius_S_Malema for the looting of the VBS funds - I think it’s a fair deal - while old people are crying for their money they want action for a tanker and so do we want action for our old peoples money
Every politician would always want a piece of the pie ...
I'm starting to suspect uMalema iForeigner🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But EFF nayo ine drama 🤦🏿
On what grounds? 🤷♂️ Where is superior logic there 🤷♂️
Zimbabweans are a menace
EFF likes drama and attention . What is the CEO of the company have to do with the driver who drive a truck under low lying Bridge? How about assisting those injured and who lost their belongings in this tragedy...
Even the owner of the bridge must be arrested.
Like 8 people died guys and the driver wasn't qualified for Dangerous Good transportation... For me these are GOOD GROUNDS
The CEO is to be arrested on what grounds though?
The company can only account if the drivers doesn't qualify to be a gas tanker driver and if the company didn't train him on OHS and hazard identification and risk management n if he is an undocumented foreign national with fake documents
Typical eff style us abt face
They always come up with the wildest solutions. What’s next? We arrest the truck manufacturer?
On what grounds?
FFS🤦🏿♀️dumbest reaction possible
Yes Straight to jail Do not pass begin
How do you arrest the CEO or a company without actually knowing if the company is responsible for driver actions
