City of Joburg puts the brakes on traffic cash looters SaturdayStar
Johannesburg - Corruption across traffic licencing centres has cost the City of Joburg so many millions in lost revenue that it hopes to ban cash payments and digitise every activity in the near future, according to MMC for Public Safety Michael Sun.
Sun said the City was constrained from rendering some services such as repairing roads because of rampant corruption.“We are a responsible government and we won’t allow this to continue,” he said. The team comprised of officials from the RTIA, Road Traffic Management Corporation , SAPS and the affected municipalities, he said.
