Numsa general secretary Irvin Jim said their members, who are largely dependent on the taxi industry for transport, demand that the government meet the industry’s funding demands.
The postponement dismayed taxi operators, who felt they had gone the extra mile to keep the economy going. They say they provided public transport during the pandemic, particularly because trains had not been running. Mbalula said he had not lost faith in negotiating with the taxi operators, but added that the government would not tolerate lawlessness.
The taxi operators argue that the relief is insufficient and will translate to each taxi owner getting roughly R5 000, which they say will not be enough to cover costs. They would want R20 000 each, at least. Jim accused Ramaphosa and the ANC government of failing to transform the taxi industry, 26 years into democracy.
