Gauteng taxi regions dispute election of new Santaco president | Citypress

On the eve of new SA National Taxi Council (Santaco) president Abner Tsebe’s election earlier this week, two Gauteng divisions of the organisation challenged the legality of the national conference held at Sun City in Rustenburg, North West

Tsebe was hoisted into office just before midnight on Monday as the organisation’s greater Johannesburg region and the Sedibeng region, in the Vaal, disputed that Gauteng representatives attending the conference were duly elected, and have threatened to challenge the outcomes of the conference in court.

The lawyers said the Santaco constitution promotes the values of unity, democracy and transparency aimed at transforming the taxi industry. “It follows that the need for democratisation within Santaco is paramount. In any elective process, it should, without exception, be applied in a transparent manner.”

It seems the representatives and/or new office bearers for the Gauteng province were elected without our clients being present or incorporated.
