ANC might as well add a new public holiday to celebrate the end of e-tolls, as politicians party like university students after failing a crucial exam.
It wouldn’t be surprising to wake up one day to news that our capable visionary leaders in the Gauteng provincial government have added a new public holiday to our already holiday-heavy calendar.
In fact, the sham celebration of the end of e-tolls reminded me of the Guinness World Records’ list of Stupidest Records. On reflection, especially after the e-tolls spectacle and the shutdown party by ANC cadres in Jozi, one has sympathy forSteen. I mean, what if the ANC wins the Western Cape and decides, in its wisdom, to toll Table Mountain and the pristine beaches of Camps Bay? Madam Helen Zille would choke on her melktert.
All types of people — experts, ordinary people, civic organisations — advise you against building there because of the risks involved and because no one will want to buy a home there due to the risks involved. This actually reminds me of a similar spectacle years ago when ANC leaders carried shoulder-high one of their comrades, Tony Yengeni — who had been convicted for misleading Parliament — to jail to begin serving his sentence.
He further went on to explain that “this uncollectable debt, and money forked out by Sanral to maintain the tolling system, has to be paid by someone. And all indications are that the Gauteng government will have to cough up.”
