Operation Dudula in KwaZulu-Natal has repeated calls for transport operators to stop hiring foreign national drivers.

“We have to make sure the company responsible for this accident must pay. If there are court cases to attend we will be there in support of the victims. We can’t let this vanish in thin air like other similar incidents that were hot topics for a while then died down later, as happened with people who killed others in Phoenix during the July 2021 unrest,” he said.

“This is not the first time a foreigner caused an accident. There are too many similar incidents. Remember the accident in Pinetown where about 24 people died and the one in Howick around June or July that claimed 15 lives,” he said“It’s about time we, as an organisation that represents locals, look deeper into this and put pressure on the companies. It’s one of the issues we want to fight, along with our alliance partners All Truck Drivers Forum in KwaZulu-Natal,” he said.

He said the organisation’s mother body was challenging the decision to extend the Zimbabwean Exemption Permit in court. This follows the announcement by home affairs minister Aaron Motsoaledi earlier this month, that the applications for the ZEP due to expire in December would be extended by six months.

How was the guy foreigner when he ran away and later went to police and handed himself he is South African and baphuza too much whiskey balale labomahosha and don’t have experience

Keep shifting blame, thinking will solve problems.

U can't tell that the truck is owned by a certain race

But the driver was a Dudula Member

Should big trucks not be forced to display company names and phone numbers so thst motorists can report bad driving?

It's amazing to watch masters and puppets go against each on these comments, the peoples lives were lost people are here busy chasing shadows.

Is this driver of this accident a foreign national?

Dubula must get rid of such people please the government do nothing as always

Yes foreigners are not good in driving they buy citizenship they get our grants our rdps use our shops free of tax and they also buy licenses from corrupt home affairs official . They even marry our sisters to get citizenship they must go back home .

SApeoplefirst!

What does accidents have to do with foreigners? OperationDomKops is just a group of fools, they dnt have ideas of their own sies, they just move with trends nje.

Allow Dudula to read and understand.

Oh NOOO DON'T TELL HE IS A FOREIGN DRIVER

And how do they know this driver was not South African another lie to cause trouble again ?

Our gov don't care about our lifes as South Africans, to them our life is the same as the life of foreign nationals, hence the open border policy, they see a Zim, a Nigerian, a Tanzanian, a Mozambiquens, a Swazi or a Sotho etc they see you/us on them

South Africans are known to be lazy and lack good work ethic.

Why? Just hire competent drivers. Doesn’t matter where they’re from.

Dudula is desperate for PR bakithi... They jus trying to get their dying name out there

Mentality of blaming someone else 🙄

Same dudulas don’t have licenses.

Mbalula mst is useless the only thing he knows is to insult other comrade dudula my movement pls continues doing your great job

The country already doesnt have money so if the government cant help its people the people must vote for a different government, not expecting private companies to take care of them when all businesses are suffering.

This ediots are denying their brother just so they can blame foreigners😂😂😂😂. What a terrible individuals 😬😬😬.

Companies need to take responsibility too, they appoint these reckless drivers.

Dudulas se moer

The attention-seekers have arrived to add nothing.

YoloRadie The young truck driver Sibusiso Siyaya is suspected to be an illegal immigrant. Who knows a surname SIYAYA in kzn?

Yet Siyaya is predominantly -99%- a South African surname.

The reason so many bad things are happening is the mediocrity thats happening out there of blaming everything on foreigners. This guy is one of us. Stop hirering inexperienced drivers.

Start holding companies responsible for truck incidents. Fine them 10% of their profits

The country is reeling with blackouts, high fuel and food prices, looting at industrial scale by Ramaphosa and his thieves in the private sector and you clowns have nothing to say. Who the hell are you people?

We support the patriotic call

Minister Nxesi n his department promised 2 deal with this issue,Dudulas pls dragged these departments,tell them when u are visiting any site,HA,SAPS,LABOUR in order 4 your efforts 2 be fruitful let thee departs be involved

The company should be held accountable and made an example of. Operation dudula doing the lord's work as usual, at the end of the day, we only have ourselves to count on, we don't have a government, no unbiased journalism that reports exactly how things are, no police...

It has nothing to do with foreigners ,this is all local clots

The problem is fail of government to make transnet operational

Where is Fikile mbaula when he's busy with license change people r getting killed on the road coz of failure of his people to do their job, people adhere not to road rules in the absence of law enforcers

Will that end the accidents?

Yet the driver of the truck (Subusiso Siyaya) was South African and a member of ADTF that is protesting foreign drivers?

Was the driver of the bakkie a foreigner?

This guy is not foreign
