Transport Minister Blade Nzimande said that he has been advised about a shutdown by truck driver's associations which is believed to be about the employment of foreign truck drivers in South Africa.
JOHANNESBURG – Transport Minister Blade Nzimande says he has been assured by the security cluster that any planned shutdown or disruptions on national roads this Easter weekend will be dealt with decisively.
The minister said that he feels that the planned shutdown is disingenuous because numerous meetings have been held and an agreement was reached earlier this month to deal with grievances. The Transport Minister said that it's disturbing that truck drivers are planning this protest even when agreements were reached and any planned action that goes ahead will clearly indicate the truck driver’s associations are acting in bad faith.
