Durban: KwaZulu-Natal Premier Sihle Zikalala is set to meet with truck drivers and stakeholders in the road freight industry, in a bid to bring an end to the ongoing violence plaguing the industry.On Monday, several members of the All Truck Drivers Foundation joined MK Veterans on a march in Durban, calling for foreign nationals to be sent back to their countries. The group claimed that foreign nationals were stealing the jobs of locals and were involved in criminal activity.
The provincial government has escalated the matter to national government as this is not only a KwaZulu-Natal matter, but it has implications for the entire SADEC region. He has, furthermore, instructed the task team – assigned with the responsibility of addressing the challenges in the road freight sector – to immediately meet with the representatives of the concerned truck drivers.
Violence is part of the 'culture' these days
Poor leadership. Talking too much but doing nothing.
End corruption& Cadre deployment. Use voted funds for intended purposes.
